History of Muslims in South Africa

Muslims make up about 1.5% of the population of South Africa , with the estimated population being about 50 million people . Judging from the latest census figures and the concentration of Muslims in the various provinces of South Africa, it can safely be assumed that the majority of this population is made up of Muslims of Malay origin (about 45%, resident mainly in the Western Cape) and Indian origin (about 45%) Islaam and Muslims in South Africa
The first Salafi Masjid was established October 2011

Up until this day, Sufism remains the most widespread sect in South Africa, but Alhamdulillah the call to the Book of Allaah and the Sunnah of our Prophet Sallallaahu alaihi wa sallam upon the understanding of the salafus-Saalih has started to make in-roads, with the first Salafi Masjid established in the city of Port Elizabeth in October 2011, with the same establishment functioning as a musollah for 3 years prior to that.

Salafiyah in South Africa

There are duaat in the various provinces who have graduated from institutions in Saudi Arabia and also some who have studied in Yemen, calling to the Quraan and Sunnah upon the understanding of the Salafus-Saalih. Walhamdulillaah. Many obstacles are faced by the Duaat in the Western Province, the biggest being financial aid, as there is not a single Markaz or Masjid that has been established there. But despite that the dawah has made leaps and strides, and this is only through the assistance of Allaah and the effort of the brothers living there.

Your books In South Africa

We ask Allaah to make the Muslims in this country receptive to the Dawah and that He opens up their hearts to the Haqq. http://www.ilm4u.com/p/south-africa.html By our brothers from Port-Elizabeth, South Africa
