Eswatini is a Christian majority country, with adherents of Islam being a minority. Due to the secular nature of Eswatini's constitution, Muslims are free to proselytize and build places of worship in the country.
The nation is home to over a million people, of which about 2% identify as Muslim, most of whom belong to the Sunni branch of Islam.[1] Islam in Eswatini probably dates back to the colonial period when some Muslims settled in the country from other countries under the dominion of the British Empire. In the post-colonial period, Islam became a officially recognized religion.[2]
