Islam is one of the smallest minority faiths in Costa Rica, whose state religion is Catholic Christianity.[1] Without an official number by any state entity, it is considered that the number of Muslims in Costa Rica could be between 1000 and 1500 people,[2][3] mostly emigrants from Algeria, India, Iraq, Iran, Lebanon, Morocco, Egypt, Somalia, Pakistan, Palestine and Syria.[4] This number includes Muslims who have immigrated to Costa Rican territory as well as those Costa Ricans who have embraced the Islamic faith through conversion, whose number is estimated to be at around 100. The number of Muslims corresponding to the Sunni and Shia factions is also unknown, although it is generally considered that the Sunnis are the majority.[2]
