Now your particular Muslim neighbor, he has 3 kids, would his kids have 3 kids? I doubt it. Each generation moved towards fewer kids once they have more money and better literacy. Not even one generation ago, upper caste Hindus also had kids in bulk. South Indian Christians on the other hand, even a generation ago were having fewer kids. Heck, maybe he just wants to have 3 kids. I know Hindu, Sikh, Christians who like the idea of having a large family with kids. Heck, the President of US has 5 and that man is as anti-Islam as you get.
On a broader scale, The minorities tend to be poorer, the poorer tend to have less idea of family planning and they tend to have more kids. As I said, Ghettos are an issue, but Ghettos are not formed with the kind of malice you are implying, they are formed because people are not able to mix into with the rest. Heck, I know enough people who casually joke about anyone with a beard and tell them, are you gonna go do a bomb blast? you look like a Mullah and what not. And that's the well educated ones. And these Ghettos are going to lead to certain problems of crime. But then the solution is to assimilate them into society.
Again as far as Terrorism and Islam goes, that is such a complex issue, that I honestly can't explain it properly or smartly. I can only direct you to certain books if you are interested.
