Islam in New Zealand
text:
Islam is the third-largest religion in New Zealand (1.3%) after Christianity (37.3%) and Hinduism (2.7%). Small numbers of Muslim immigrants from South Asia and eastern Europe settled in New Zealand from the early 1900s until the 1960s. Large-scale Muslim immigration began in the 1970s with the arrival of Indian Fijians, followed in the 1990s by refugees from various war-torn countries. |-
