Cultures and religions innevitably become displaced or evolve over time. Especially when you purposely open up resource conduits. When the Romans spread their economic empire east, it opened up a flood of eastern immigration which brought with it, many scientific and cultural changes - including Christianity and Judaism. The west is doing the same thing this time, mainly for oil and cheap labour (blame capitalism if you have a problem with labour mobility).

In the end, I think if any muslim was somehow picturing a "muslim world" in the cultural shape of Arab or Middle Eastern culture, the joke is probably on them. It will likely become a "westernized" form of Islam, just like what happened with Christianity and Judaism.
