Muslim History in Mauritius

  • Islam
  • June 6, 2022

Mauritius was under Islamic rule for over 200 years during the Arab Conquest in 870 CE. Islam was reintroduced in the latter half of the 20th century. In present-day Mauritius, the Muslim community is limited to a few thousand, mostly people who are ethnically linked to North Africa and the Middle East.
