The three major religions in Africa include Islam, Christianity, and traditional African religious practices.

Countries such as Rwanda, Seychelles, Cape Verde, Swaziland, Zambia, Kenya, Angola, and the Congos all share significantly high Christian populations.

Countries including Chad, Comoros, Mayotte, Djibouti, Somalia, Egypt, Libya, Morocco, Sudan, Niger, and Senegal have extensive Islamic populations.

Togo, Liberia, Madagascar, Mauritius have populations that adhere to other religions such as traditional practices, Hinduism, or a combination of religions.

Answer: Islam, Christianity, Hinduism. Let me tell you about traditional religions which still retain their predominant influence in sub-Saharan Africa. In countries such as Botswana, Swaziland, Burkina Faso, Sierra Leone, Côte d'Ivoire, Benin, Ghana, Zimbabwe and Mozambique, the number of adherents is about 70 to 80 percent of the total population. At the same time, 40% of all inhabitants of the continent profess Islam, in the states of the northern part of the mainland-Mauritania, Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, Libya-Muslims constitute the vast majority of the population. A high percentage of Muslims are also in Senegal, Niger, Mali, Sudan, Chad, and some other countries. The majority of African Muslims are Sunni, with the exception of small Shia groups — descendants of settlers from Yemen, Iran, Iraq, and India who live in East Africa and the Indian Ocean islands. About 22% of the total population of Africa profess Christianity, and among them, Catholics and Protestants prevail, though monophysites and orthodox are also widely enough-about a quarter of all Christians. A significant Christian stratum exists in South Africa, in both Congo, Madagascar, Uganda and Angola. In addition to traditional religious confessions, in Africa, a very small number of followers represented Hinduism and Judaism. Historically, most South African Hindus have lived in KwaZulu-Natal province, but at present, a significant number of Hindus can also be found in Gauteng.

AlladinOne [14]
The one important reason why bed linens should remain wrinkle free is because this is to keep everyone's skin healthy and prevent pressure pores. Linens somehow are relaxed summer fabric that brings freshness and coolness. These fabrics are also non-allergenic.
