Muslim-majority countries
Muslim-majority countries are nations where most of the population practices Islam, a major world religion founded on the teachings of the Prophet Muhammad. These countries often have cultural, legal, and social systems influenced by Islamic principles. They are spread across regions such as the Middle East, North Africa, South Asia, and parts of Southeast Asia. Examples include Indonesia, Pakistan, Egypt, and Saudi Arabia. While sharing the commonality of Islam as the dominant faith, these countries can vary greatly in their history, governance, and cultural practices.
