Islam is the predominant religion in Senegal, with about 95% of the population identifying as Muslim. The majority of Senegalese Muslims follow the Maliki school of thought, which emphasizes community and social justice. The country is known for its peaceful coexistence of different religious groups, including Christians and indigenous beliefs. Sufi orders, particularly the Tidjane and Murid brotherhoods, play a significant role in Senegalese Islam. These groups focus on spiritual development and community service, often organizing large gatherings and celebrations. The annual Magal pilgrimage to Touba, the spiritual capital of the Murid order, attracts millions and highlights the deep cultural ties between Islam and Senegalese identity.
