l'islam en maroc

Jump to:

Islam is the largest religion in Morocco, with roughly 98.7% of the population adhering to it.
Islam was first brought to Morocco in 670 by an Arab invasion under Uqba ibn Nafi, who was a general serving under the Umayyads of Damascus. In 788, The Idrisids ruled Morocco, being the first dynasty to do so. After adopting Islam, several Berbers formed their own Islamic dynasties and reigned over the country. Most Berbers converted to Islam after more Arabs came to Morocco with their culture and customs. Islam has been the official religion since.
Muslims in Morocco are predominantly of the Maliki madhab, or school of thought.
