Information About

Islam In Bolivia




The Centro Islámico Boliviano (Bolivian Islamic Center) was created in August 1986 by Imam Mahmud Amer Abusharar, who arrived from the Palestinian territories in 1974. In 1992 a commission for the construction of the first mosque in Bolivia was satisfied, which was completed in September 1994 in the city of Santa Cruz. Presently the CIB doesn't have branches in Sucre, Cochabamba or La Paz , with any indigenous Bolivians accepting Islam. On the international level, CIB is not a Branch of the Islamic Organization for Latin America .
