Muslim.[1]
The large Muslim population is due to the migration of labourers who were brought to Cocos (Keeling) Islands and to
Home Island
(est. pop. 500).
The Island's main Muslim organisation is the Islamic Council of Cocos Keeling Islands.[2]
The Islands have three mosques, the most recent of which is the heritage-listed West Island Mosque.[3]
