American Muslim fertility

A reader writes:

"After reading your VDARE article, I was curious how high the total fertility rate (number of babies per woman) among American Muslims is. The General Social Survey gives a small Muslim sample: they average 4.8 children."

Why am I not reassured by this news?

(That sounds higher than I'd expect, though -- perhaps the small sample size makes it unreliable?)
