One of the odd paradoxes of the study of religious gap between Muslims of first-generation of immigration and those belonging to second- or later generation of immigration in the European context is that quantitative studies show little evidence for difference while qualitative studies point out significant differences. Why is it so? By focusing on the French case and taking a mixed methods approach, I reflect on this paradox. First, I analyze data from three quantitative surveys: Pew Global Attitudes Survey (Pew 2006), Trajectories and Origins survey (TeO 2008), and French Institute of Public Opinion study of the Muslim population (IFOP 2019). Then, I use primary qualitative data (25 interviews and field observations) collected in the Greater Paris region over six months (May-July 2018 and February-April 2019) to outline five themes that I noted when my interviewees talked about religious generational gap. These themes include: choice versus inheritance of Islam; Islamic epistemologies; religious attitudes towards gender and ethnic differences; dividing the sacred from the profane; and claiming Islamic identity. I show that many of the religious differences that French Muslims of different immigrant generations talk about are not measured by the quantitative surveys currently available. In conclusion, I use the five themes to propose survey questions that can be used in future quantitative surveys to measure the existence of as well as the nature of religious generational gap among Muslims at a generalizable scale.
