It's normal to have a boyfreind, and its also normal that a good portion of available men in the world are Muslim.
The major question is what kind of Muslim. Like other religions there are the ultra orthodox to very liberal branches of Muslim along with the radical right and left (and every other direction).
Have a discussion with him about how he views his religion and how you see your religion and if he sees a problem with dating... and how that could potentially play out if the two of you chose to marry. Some Muslims have converted to other religions; so that is not ruled out.
He may be fine just dating and see where it goes for a year or two... which will give you time to learn a lot more.
Just remember that like people anywhere and of all religions: There are some very good people and there are some very bad people and most of use are in between.
How much of a catch he is really depends on where both of you are on that scale and how well you match in many other aspects.
