The Ethiopian Islamic Affairs Supreme Council (Amharic: የኢትዮጵያ እስልምና ጉዳዮች ጠቅላይ ምክር ቤት; EIASC) is the central governing body of Islam representing Ethiopian Muslims living in both domestic and foreign countries. It was established following the Ethiopian Revolution in 1975 with intention to unify and serving the Muslim community. In 2012, the House of Peoples' Representatives approved EIASC with Proclamation No. 1207/2020, granting legal responsibility and therefore representing Muslims both domestically and internationally.[1] The current president of EIASC is Sheikh Abdulkarim Sheikh Bedredin since 2022.
