About Leeds's Muslim community
Leeds has around 75,000 Muslims (around 9% of the city, 2021 census), with the community concentrated in inner-east and inner-south wards.
Leeds combines a long-standing British-Pakistani community in Harehills and Beeston with a fast-growing Muslim student population at Leeds University and Leeds Beckett, plus significant Somali, Yemeni and Iraqi Kurdish communities.
