Islam in Vanuatu

The earliest known Muslim in Vanuatu was Henry Hussein Nabanga, who converted to Islam while in India in 1978. By the time of his death the country's first mosque, Port Vila Grand Mosque, was completed. Islam was spread across the islands of Vanuatu by Mohammed Lawal Amadu. There are currently 500 to 1,000 Muslims in Vanuatu.
