Islamophobia in Poland

Islamophobia in Poland is the fear, hatred of, or prejudice against the Islamic religion or Muslims in Poland. Since the Muslim community in Poland is small (0.1% of the population) the situation has been described as "Islamophobia without Muslims".[1][2] According to Monika Bobako, Islamophobia is one of the main elements of the Polish nationalist discourse.[3] Islamophobia in Poland takes the form of xenophobia and discrimination towards Muslims or those perceived as Muslim.[4][5]
