The Muslims of Albania are divided into two main communities: those associated with [[Sunni]] [[Islam]] and those associated with the [[Bektashi]]s (a particular form of Sufism). In 1925, after [[Atatürk]] banned Sufi orders in Turkey, Albania became the world center of Bektashism, and the Albanian government subsequently recognized it as a body independent from Sunnism. Sunni Muslims were estimated to represent approximately 50% of the country's [[Muslim]] population before 1939, while Bektashi represented another 20%.

Muslims are spread throughout the country but are concentrated mostly in the middle and to a large extent in the south. The majority of Sunni Muslims have historically lived in the cities of Albania, while the Catholics and Bektashi Shias mainly in remote areas. [[Orthodox Christians]] remain mainly in the south, and [[Roman Catholics]] in the north of the country. However, in the modern times this division is not strict, particularly in the case of many urban centers, which have mixed populations. Foreign religious missionaries who have come to Albania since 1991 include Muslims from Arab Countries and Turkey, [[Evangelicals]] and [[Mormons]] who come mainly from the USA, [[Bahá'ís]], [[Jehovah's Witnesses]], [[Hindus]], and many others freely carry out religious activities.
According to the [[State Committee on Cults]], as of [[2002]] there were about 17 different [[Islamic]] societies and groups active in the country; some of these groups were foreign. There were 31 Christian societies representing more than 45 different organizations and 500 to 600 Christian and Bahá'í missionaries. The largest foreign missionary groups were American, British, Italian and Greek.
