Abstract

In this paper I study the presence of Islam in the history and present of Catalonia, fundamentally analyzing its internal organization, its entities and the legal regime of relations with the Catalan Administration. The General Directorate of Religious Affairs of the Generalitat of Catalonia has reached various Agreements with Muslim entities to develop issues related to religious freedom in Catalonia, as regards the Muslim community based in Catalonia. The current sovereign process of Catalonia initiated from the Catalan Parliament, has inevitably led to the Muslim community having to position itself. In this sense, the links of the Catalan Islamic communities with Morocco, sponsored by the Catalan Administration, are an exponent of Catalan religious and immigration policy. The uncertain future of Catalan Islam is a reflection of the political uncertainty that is being experienced in Catalonia.
