From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Ahmadiyya movement is a small but growing religious group in Morocco with only about five hundred adherents as of 2013. [1]

History

The Ahmadiyya was officially established in Morocco in the early 1990s. [2] the number of adherents of this Islamic group has increased over the years, but very slowly. In 2013, there have been an estimated 500 Ahmadis in Morocco, [1] although the number may be much higher since some Ahmadis prefer not to openly reveal their adherence to the movement to protect themselves from persecution. [2]

Organizations

Moroccan Ahmadis do not have an official place for them to practice or teach their faith, [2] although an increasing number of schools are reportedly owned by Ahmadis, especially in the cities of Salé, Casablanca, Meknes and Tangier. [1]
