It depends entirely on how the question is read.

If the question is asking what is the largest religion that is still growing, the answer would be Christianity since there are more and more Christians born and converted every day than convert out or die.

If the question is asking what religion is growing by the largest numbers of new followers (both births and converts), then the answer would be Islam, since the population growth in Muslim-majority countries has made Islam the religion with the most new adherents daily.

If the question is asking what religion has the greatest percentage of growth, then this would be a contest between a number of very small religions which have high percentage increases, but low current population counts, such as Baha'i or Jehovah's Witnesses. Although these cannot match the numerical growth of Christianity or Islam, the thousands of converts and newborns have a much higher relative to the <20 million adherents to the religion.

Today the Fastest Growing Religion in the World is the Iglesia Ni Cristo (Church Of Christ).

their Total number of Members in 2009 is 10 Million World wide and Today their new Total number of Members is 14 million Worldwide.

Almost 8x (80%) than any other Religions.

Answer

One cannot say which religion is the fastest growing, for there are many variables which have to taken into consideration.With all due respect to the first answer, a growth of four million new members in just three years is hard to believe. Many religions do gain a large nuember of new converts, however what is not told are the number that leave the relgion or are totally inactive (But are left on the records of the church) or are born into the religion. The largest, say Christianity, is loosing members by the thousands as many convert to Islam and via versa. A new religion say with ten members may add to their congregation 100% in a month, therefore the present size of the religion does not matter. So I repeat, one cannot say which is the fastest growing religion. Most will claim an increase, but few will tell of any decrease.

Everyday - despite the bad publicity and the hateful propoganda and the stupid extremists who give us a bad name - people are discovering the truth that the Last Prophet of God was, in fact, Muhammad. Peace be upon him, and upon Jesus and Moses and all the Prophets of God.
