Focusing on the issue of gender and Muslim minority communities in the West, this paper presents a typical pattern in order to examine the main dimensions and determinants associated with religion and gender identity upon migration. It also explains the existence and the extent of association between the socialization experience of women in their society of origin and their integration process in the receiving society. The examination focuses particularly on the intersection of gender, migration, and religion: the status of Muslim female immigrants residing in the West whose origin is from the Middle East and North Africa region in the East. The indicators used, the context of the study, the method of analysis, and the particular focus group of this study provide the opportunity to deal appropriately with the above key objective in this study.
