Muslims in the UK are more likely to identify strongly with Britain and have confidence in its institutions than the population as a whole, a poll suggests.
Eight in 10 Muslims said they respected other religions
The survey says they are also more likely to take a positive view of living side-by-side with people of different races and religions.
The majority of Muslims do not believe the veil is a barrier to integration - unlike most of the wider population.
Gallup interviewed 500 Muslims and 1,200 members of the wider population.
The full results of the survey - described as the most comprehensive poll on Muslims and non-Muslims to date - will be published later this week.
Fifty-seven per cent of the Muslims polled said they identified strongly with their country, compared with 48% of the general public.
Muslims were also more likely to express confidence in the police (78% to 69%), national government (64% to 36%), the justice system (67% to 55%) and elections (73% to 60%).
Nearly three-quarters of the Muslims said they felt loyal to the UK, and 82% said they respected other religions.
But just 45% of the wider population said Muslims living in the UK were loyal to the nation, and only 55% said they were respectful.
The poll found the general public were more likely to prefer living in a neighbourhood made up mostly of people who shared their religious or ethnic background (35%) than Muslims were (25%).
Only 13% of British Muslims said they believed that women removing the veil was necessary for integration, compared with 55% of the wider population.
