Although Morocco is considered to be a relatively tolerant country, Christians still face persecution from both the government and their communities. Christians who openly share their faith risk imprisonment and those who convert from a Muslim background can lose the right to their inheritance and custody of their children. Despite this, Morocco remains a stable oasis in the region.

Story

“We are asking for the right to give our children Christian names, worship in churches, be buried in Christian cemeteries.” – Spokesperson for the National Coalition of Moroccan Christians.

99% of the population in Morocco is Muslim. Whilst freedom of speech is generally respected, Christians are still restricted because of their faith.
