Morocco
Morocco is predominantly a Muslim country, with over 99% of its population identifying as followers of Islam. The majority adhere to Sunni Islam under the Maliki school of jurisprudence, which emphasizes community consensus and practical application of religious texts. The monarchy in Morocco plays a significant role in religious affairs, as the king is officially recognized as the "Commander of the Faithful." This dual authority reinforces Islam's influence in both governance and daily life, shaping the country’s legal systems, social norms, and cultural practices.
In addition to Islam, Morocco is home to Jewish and Christian communities, as well as various indigenous beliefs, reflecting a legacy of coexistence. Religious festivals, such as Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha, are widely celebrated, while the presence of historic synagogues and churches illustrates the multicultural fabric of Moroccan society. This diversity contributes to a unique religious landscape where dialogue and mutual respect among different faiths are an integral part of the national identity.
