Traditional African religions like the Serer religion (A ƭat Roog) are adhered to by devout worshippers of Roog – the supreme deity in Serer religion. According to “CIA World Factbook: Senegal” (2019 estimates), Islam is the predominant religion in the country, practiced by 97.2% of the country’s population; the Christian community, at 2.7% of the population, and less than one percent practice Traditional African religions such as Serer spirituality, the spiritual beliefs of the Serer people. The Serer ethnic group who adhere to the tenets of Serer religion (including those Senegalese who syncretize) honour the Serer pangool and have ancient rituals and festivals devoted to them. Mourides constitute around 28% of the Senegalese population. Around 3% of the population claims no religious affiliation, while another 3% practices other religions including traditional faiths. Approximately 1% of the Muslim population practices Ahmadiyya. Among these Muslims, 6,700,000 or 4.6% of the total population of Russia were not affiliated with any Islamic schools and branches.

There is also a small population of Baha’is, as well as some practising traditional indigenous beliefs. There has been a proliferation of small, usually Christian-linked schismatic religious groups since the 1994 genocide.

Islam is one of the world’s largest religions, practiced by over 1.9 billion people across the globe – that’s nearly a quarter of the world population. Christianity is the largest religion in Rwanda, with Protestantism and Catholicism being its main denominations. Under constant threat of being attacked by the Gallic tribes, Roman leaders saw that the only way to secure their border was to go to war and bring Gaul under Roman influence. The government has programs established for the restitution of property confiscated by the government of Yugoslavia after World War II, and for property lost in the Holocaust.

According to Kabalah, there are four worlds and our world is the last world: the world of action (Assiyah). Sometimes that means wordplay; other times, it just means looking at the world in a different way. The word “earth” stems from Old English and German and means “ground.” We don’t know who officially named the planet or when it was named. Such worlds predominantly consist of hydrogen and helium – and whereas Earth is solid on the outside, a gas giant is not. At the same time, churches did not uniformly support the genocide. For example, Athanase Seromba, a Catholic priest responsible at the time of the genocide for the Nyange parish, was ultimately (after appeal) convicted in 2008 by the Appeals Chamber for the International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda of committing genocide and crimes against humanity. Longman argues that both Catholic and Protestant churches helped to make the genocide possible by giving moral sanction to the killing.

Churches had longed played ethnic politics themselves, favoring the Tutsi during the colonial period then switching allegiance to the Hutu after 1959, sending a message that some may have interpreted as ethnic discrimination being consistent with church teaching. Many of the clergy were Tutsi, and they generally supported democratic reform, but many moderate Hutu within the churches supported reform as well. Conversely, many youth-led political movements are associated with groups of young people who tend to deviate from the religious expectations of their parents, partaking in alcohol consumption as well as elements of hip hop culture. On the other hand, many Senegalese youth movements have centered on increasing the role of religion in political systems, particularly at the university level. About 97% of the Senegalese population is Muslim, and many denominations of this faith are practised. Qadiriyya constitute around 6% of the Senegalese population. This bias makes it even more difficult to make any generalizations about youth religiosity, since it would frequently be disregarding the sentiments of a large portion of the population. More recently, the NabyAllah movement has emerged and constructed the Mosque of the Divinity in Ouakam.
