Islam in Latin America  

Definición

  • Although Islam is a minority religion in Latin America, its relevance lies in the integration and organization of the Muslim communities and their participation in the development of several Latin American regions and cities. The first Muslims came to America during the colonial period, when many Muslim slaves arrived at the Caribbean coast. [Source: Encyclopedia of Global Religion; Islam in Latin America]
