Islam is very powerful here in South Africa. 90% of the muslims is in the Indian community and the rest is in the Black community. It is compulsory that when the children go to school then the parents send the kids to Madrassa after school to learn the Dean. Now we have many schools that are mainly Islamic schools that teach the normal secular syllabus as well as an Islamic syllabus. This makes it easier for the children so that they do not have a long day of attending two different schools. Many ladies are also having get togethers were they teach and share ideas, problems, stories of the sahabas and teachings of the quraan.

There are Middle Eastern people here in South Africa but there are only a few in numbers. There are foreigners here not perminant residence if you know what I mean. There are many Pakistanis Nigerians Congolese and many other North Africans that try to come into SA but they are illegal immigrants. As for Arabs I do not think that there are here. If and when they come it is for visiting the country. Islam amongst the foreigners that come here is not strong. I have visited many countrys and I would like to confirm that in my opinion Islam is pretty powerful here in SA. They may be a few that go astray but the majority are very staunch in their belief.
