* Michel Houellebec's ''Literature/{{Soumission}}'' features a France electing a Muslim as president, who then proceeds to enact his radical agenda.

* The book ''[[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lion%27s_Blood Lion's Blood]]'' by Steven Barnes is a AlternateHistory world where Islamic Africa is the center of the world while Europe is tribal and primitive; white slaves are captured from Europe and taken from there to America, which has been colonized by Africans.

While the word itself was first used as a name for the newsletter of a Euro-Arab friendship committee in the 1970s, the concept underlying its modern usage was coined by far-right essayist Bat Ye'or in her 2005 book ''Eurabia: The Euro-Arab Axis'', which claimed that there was a conspiracy underway between France and the Arab world to allow Europe to become "Islamicized" as part of a plan to increase its power against the United States and Israel. Although Ye'or's theories have been derided by a lot of academics, it has not stopped them from inspiring a number of works imagining the Islamic takeover of Europe. (Yes, this started out as a rare example of a conspiracy theory created by and believed in by Jewish people, as opposed to the many, many, antisemitic ones. However, it subsequently became taken up by white nationalists and merged with the thoroughly antisemitic "white replacement" theory.)

Bear in mind that a lot of the mindset on this trope involves an Arab equals Muslim view, which ignores non-Muslim Arabs or non-Arab Muslims. Indeed, the only Islamic countries in Europe, located in the Balkans, aren't even Arab or Semitic and blend Islamic culture with their local European one. Or to put it in the terms of this very wiki, European Muslim nations are far more likely to resemble {{Ruritania}} than {{Qurac}}.

* Some Alternate Historians from the subreddit r/imaginarymaps have made maps about hypothetical scenarios where the Arabs become dominant in Europe in the short/long term.
