Unfortunately, there are no fully reliable statistics on Islam in Africa. It seems that the African Christian Population is about 489 million people (47% of the African population), followed closely by Muslims with 422 million (40%), and the African Traditional Religions (10%). In any case, these data must be taken with caution.

1. Furthermore, an African can follow simultaneously African Traditional Religions and Islam (or Christianity)
2. Most African Muslims are Sunni
