- The earliest Muslims to enter the British Isles were Africans during the colonial period brought over as slaves. Later small numbers of Moroccans and Egyptians also came to the UK and built the first Mosque over 100 years ago. Most of todays UK Muslims are from the Indian Subcontinent (Mostly Pakistani & Bengali). However it is thought that up to 12% of UK Muslims are of white British ethnicity (recent converts or descendants of fairly recent converts)

There were Christians in the UK by the fourth century. There are many theories about how it came to the UK but I think it was the ancient Romans. They brought Christianity into UK and gradually it spread all across the country.
