Muslim Background in Albania

Understanding the Islamic heritage, historical roots, and demographic distribution that shape the educational landscape today.

Islam was introduced to Albania during the Ottoman period (15th–20th centuries) and today approximately 58% of Albanians identify as Muslim, primarily Sunni with a significant Bektashi Sufi minority. Albanian Islam is historically moderate and culturally nuanced. Islamic education was suppressed under communist rule (1967–1991) and has been rebuilding since.
