50,000 Muslims Have Left France - Here's Why

50,000 Muslims Have Left France - Here's Why - At least ten thousand Muslim families have packed up and left France. Tens of thousands of people, gone. And the activists tracking this exodus have published exactly why, item by item. Read that list closely, because it isn't a list of wrongs done to them. It's a list of French laws, passed by elected lawmakers who decided France would stay France. Here's every reason they gave, and why France isn't changing a single one. The list comes from Rayan Freschi, a Paris-based researcher for the advocacy group CAGE, a man who has spent years documenting what he calls the persecution of Muslims in France. In October 2025, he put it in writing. Citing researchers who studied the departures, he wrote that at least ten thousand Muslim families had already left the country. Then he told the world why.
