Religion in Saint Kitts and Nevis

Saint Kitts and Nevis is an overwhelmingly Christian majority country, with adherents of Islam being a minuscule minority. Due to secular nature of the country's constitution, Muslims are free to proselytize and build places of worship in the country.

According to a 2009 Pew Research Center report, Muslims constitute approximately 0.1% of the population in Saint Kitts and Nevis.[1] The islands are home to two Islamic centres/mosques and several Islamic organisations.[2] Muslim Student Organisations are also present in the local universities like the Windsor University School of Medicine.[3]
