Under the Constitutions of the United Grand Lodge of England adopted in 1815, a candidate's specific religious faith does not bar him from membership in the Craft, provided he believes in a supreme being—termed the glorious architect of heaven and earth—and practices morality 1. This constitutional rule was framed to remove specifically Christian requirements in favor of a broad, unsectarian framework capable of embracing men of various persuasions 1.

While historical sources document the spread of the Craft among Muslims, Hindus, and Parsees under English jurisdiction abroad 2, and note the inclusion of non-Christian members such as Jews within English lodges following the 1815 revisions 1, the provided library sources do not contain specific census figures or membership lists documenting Muslim brethren in United Kingdom lodges.
