The majority of anti-Christian persecution in the world in 2013 took place at the hands of Muslims, according to a list by Open Doors USA .
The top country where Christians suffer, for the 12th consecutive year, remained communist North Korea, though the nine following countries in the top ten were Islamic: Somalia, Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan, Saudi Arabia, Maldives, Pakistan, Iran and Yemen.
“The one glaring fact that emerges from this report,” American-born scholar Raymond Ibrahim said in his analysis of the statistics on the Christian Broadcasting Network News website, “is that the overwhelming majority of Christian persecution around the world today is being committed at the hands of Muslims of all races, languages, cultures and socio-political circumstances: Muslims from among America’s allies (Saudi Arabia) and its enemies (Iran); Muslims from economically rich nations (Qatar) and from poor nations (Somalia and Yemen); Muslims from ‘Islamic republic’ nations (Afghanistan) and from ‘moderate’ nations (Malaysia and Indonesia); [and] Muslims from nations rescued by America (Kuwait).”

How they define "Christian" is not accurate, as Coptics and Roman Catholics, and Orthodox are not biblical Christians. A Christian is defined by the Bible: one that adheres solely to salvation by grace alone through faith alone in the biblical Jesus alone for His glory alone, and rejects any works of self can save and believes that all are sinners earning Hell and thus can only be saved by believing and trusting in the Person and work of the Biblical Jesus Christ.
Still, the fact that Muslims don't know the difference merely shows that they still are adhereing to their quran and hadiths: take not a Christian nor a Jew as a friend, kill them, etc.
This report bears out what I've said before: a Muslim is a Muslim regardless of his country. His allegiance is ultimately to his religion and not to his country or his country's culture.
