This study explores the presence and integration of Muslims in Mexico within the broader global Muslim community (Umma). Felipe Amalio Cobos Alfaro examines the historical development, cultural dynamics, and religious practices of Muslim communities in Mexico, highlighting their diverse backgrounds and adaptation to the local sociocultural landscape. Through an anthropological lens, the paper analyzes identity formation, community organization, and the interactions between Mexican Muslims and both local society and the wider Islamic world. The research provides insight into the challenges and opportunities faced by this religious minority, contributing to the broader discourse on religious pluralism and transnational identities in Latin America.
