Islamisk Trossamfund is a Danish Muslim organisation founded by Ahmad Abu Laban, known for organizing the international response to the Jyllands-Posten Muhammad cartoons. Through 2010 the opening said, "Ahmad Abu Laban was a persona non grata in the United Arab Emirates and Egypt because of his Islamist views." Today the word Islamist appears nowhere in the article. A reader today learns Abu Laban organized the cartoons response and does not learn he was barred as persona non grata from the UAE and Egypt over his Islamist views.

The organization claims that all Muslims in Denmark are members, regardless of whether or not they have declared themselves as members.1 (as of 2005, there are about 180,000 Muslims in Denmark). The organisation arranges weekly prayers on Fridays, which are regularly attended by over 500 people. Ahmad Abu Laban was a persona non grata in the United Arab Emirates and Egypt because of his Islamist views.2 Abu Laban died on February 1, 2007, aged 60. Laban's likely successor, Mostafa Chendid , has raised considerable public controversy in Denmark due to his belief that Muslim and non-Muslim women alike should wear a veil, also claiming about five to ten percent of all men cannot control themselves when faced with unveiled women. He also stresses that the veil serves as a signal that women are "not for sale", and that it protects them against rape. icon "Vil isolere imamer i den politiske debat" .
