Demographics of the member states of the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation

Last updated

This is a list of 57 member states of the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation sorted by their estimated population.

Contents

10 countries (Benin, Cameroon, Gabon, Guinea-Bissau, Guyana, Ivory Coast, Mozambique, Suriname, Togo and Uganda) are not Muslim-majority, but they are members of Organisation of Islamic Cooperation.

Also the list below only includes OIC members, not OIC observers, and does not include many other countries having a significant number of Muslims in their resident population from immigrants and their descendants (notably in North America, Europe, and even in Asia, such as China, India and Russia which are OIC observers).

Syria's membership in the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC), of which it is a founding member, was reinstated on March 7, 2025 [1] , during the 20th Extraordinary Session of the OIC Council of Foreign Ministers in Jeddah. This followed a suspension that began in August 2012 due to the Syrian civil war. Other member states have also been suspended in the past and later reintegrated into the OIC.
