Muslims of South Africa

Muslims of South Africa 

Islam is dramatically growing in numbers and influence throughout South Africa. The number of mosques, madrassas and Muslim schools increases annually. Influence is also increased through Muslims holding political office. As is typical in Islam, most South African Muslims are ardent followers of Muhammad and are unwilling to respond to the gospel of Jesus Christ. Many churches in South Africa are unwilling to engage Muslims due to fear or lack of understanding.


Pray:


-that God will raise up the South African church with a desire to see Muslims in their communities saved.


-for workers as they seek to effectively engage closed Muslim communities.


-For those Muslims who come to faith and experience severe persecution from their family and community. Ask the Lord to give them strength to endure and boldness to proclaim the gospel in the midst of persecution.


-that the Holy Spirit will work in the lives of Muslim peoples of South Africa, and that many will come to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ.

“… Pray also for us, that God may open to us a door for the word, to declare the mystery of Christ …” (Colossians 4:3)
