Islam in Wales (Welsh: Islam yng Nghymru, Arabic: الإسلام في ويلز) is a minority faith followed by 2.1% of the population of Wales, making Islam the second most practiced religion in the country after Christianity.

Wales is also home to the oldest Muslim communities in the British Isles, established during the early nineteenth century by Muslim seafarers in the industrial ports of South Wales.
