Penulis menganalisis persamaan dan perbedaan yang dimiliki dua organisasi ini dalam pola dan pendekatan pergerakan keislaman mereka dalam menyikapi gagasan-gagasan di atas. Bagi organisasi-organisasi yang berafiliasi ke JI, Muslim di Inggris bisa menjadi "British Muslims" yang mengamalkan komitmen-komitmen keislaman mereka dan nilai-nilai modern negara Inggris secara bersamaan, sedangkan bagi HT, Muslim di Negara sekuler seperti Inggris harus memilih untuk menjadi Muslims atau British. HT berpandangan bahwa nilai-nilai modern di Negara sekuler adalah bertentangan dengan ajaran Islam. Perbedaan ini adahalhasil interaksi nilai dan komitmen keislaman mereka dengan faktor-faktor sosial yang ada di Inggris. Penulis berpendapat bahwa kedua organisasi ini memiliki perbedaan dalam pola pergerakan keislaman, namun keduanya memberikan kontribusi terhadap perkembangan Islam di Inggris.
