Can Muslims Live Peacefully in Sweden?

Yes — the overwhelming majority of Sweden's several-hundred-thousand-strong Muslim population lives peacefully, working, studying, and participating in Swedish civic life, subject to the same laws as everyone else. Islamic teaching itself supports honoring agreements and the laws of the land one lives in, and mainstream Islamic scholarship holds that Muslims can and should be loyal, law-abiding citizens of non-Muslim states.
