Primarily, Muslims arrived in Britain from the former British Empire. During the 1800s, a vast number of Britons moved to foreign territories under British rule. In the 1900s and 2000s, many people from these foreign territories have come to Britain. This includes many Hindus and Sikhs from India as well as a large number of Muslims. Additionally, rich Muslims often buy a summer house in the United Kingdom so they can enjoy the freedoms that many Muslim regimes deny their citizens.
It should also be noted that the phrasing of this question is a little odd. It's not as if Britain had a barrier where they were constantly looking out for Muslims and some "sneaked in". Muslim Immigration to the United Kingdom is quite open and honest.
Muhammad, the founder of Islam, was a follower of the religion of Islam.
The Taliban supports an extremist version of Sunni Islam, but does not support "Islam" in general, especially more ecumenical versions of Islam and Non-Sunnis, who they feel are "weakening" or "falsely interpreting" Islam.
I believe it is Islam.
Islam.
No religion "inspired" the Ottoman Empire. The Ottoman Empire had Sunni Islam as its State Religion, but it was not a view or tenet of Islam to create an Ottoman Empire.
Yes Brittan does have Islam Muslim as extreests.

Well the majority of population are muslims so Islam.
No, according to the 2001 UK census Britain remains 92% white, and Islam is a massive minority of the remaining 8%, there are more Hindus than Muslims in Britain at the moment. Immigration since 2001 has been predominanetly from Eastern Europe, which is mainly Roman Catholic, there are now more practicing Catholics than Anglicans in England. In short, Britain will not be Islamic by 2050.
It depends entirely on how the question is read. If the question is asking what is the largest religion that is still growing, the answer would be Christianity since there are more and more Christians born and converted every day than convert out or die. If the question is asking what religion is growing by the largest numbers of new followers (both births and converts), then the answer would be Islam, since the population growth in Muslim-majority countries has made Islam the religion with the most new adherents daily. If the question is asking what religion has the greatest percentage of growth, then this would be a contest between a number of very small religions which have high percentage increases, but low current population counts, such as Baha'i or Jehovah's Witnesses. Although these cannot match the numerical growth of Christianity or Islam, the thousands of converts and newborns have a much higher relative to the <20 million adherents to the religion.
The primary religion of the United Kingdom is mostly Catholic and Christian.

Islam is a religion not a spiritual leader. Islam is not dead.
