In Hamburg, Jan visits a mosque that was build by rich Iranians. They're hosting the European Quran Competition where 165 participants from eleven countries compete in reciting verses. He gets the chance to talk to winner Jafar Jafaari. He explains why he decided to come to Germany 15 years ago.
The An-Nour mosque is in a garage and so popular among the Muslim community of Hamburg that the Friday prayers take place in two shifts. An old evangelical church will become the new mosque. The new owner offers guided tours for interested visitors from the neighbourhood in order to gain their trust.
Jan talks with activist and ex-Muslim Zana Ramadani about feminism and the Islamic rules regarding women. She thinks that many politicians are too tolerant. Together they visit Wilden-Wilnsdorf, the place where she grew up in an Islamic family.
Jan witnesses a mass baptism of Muslims who convert to Christianity in a church in Hamburg. A lot of them come from countries where they would face harsh punishment for this decision.

What is the future of Islam in Europe? How hopeful can we be on an European, enlightened version of Islam? Is that something Muslims themselves actually want? And will it be possible to overcome the Europeans’ distrust of Islam?
Jan Leyers goes in search of answers. He heads off to Sarajevo, Budapest, Vienna, Hamburg, Paris, London, Copenhagen and Malmö. He listens to the voice of experts and the word on the street and talks with religious men and women, with ex-believers and new converts. What do they hope for and what are their concerns? In this series, Jan stays true to his style: nuanced and respectful, without shying away from controversy.
