 Islam
The Noor journal was created in 2012 and intends to represent Islam of the enlightenment. There are also many websites of Muslim information, the main ones being Saphir news (to which since 2008 one can add the free monthly paper magazine Salam news) and Oumma.com, as well as the journal du musulman (Muslim’s newspaper).
