Bhutan, officially known as the Kingdom of Bhutan, is situated in the Eastern Himalayas. It is a small and landlocked country with China on its north and India on its south. Out of the total population of more than 792,000, 84% follow Buddhism, which is also the official Religion of the country. According to the latest statistics, around 7000 Muslims live in Bhutan, which is less than 1% of the total population.
Most of the Muslim population is concentrated in the Capital City of Thimphu. But Islam has no official recognition as a religion in Bhutan. Despite the constitutional assurance of freedom for all religions, Bhutan is not a friendly country for the followers of any other religion except Buddhism.
Bhutan is a Buddhist Country with more than 84% of people following Buddhism and 11% being Hindus. There are no footprints of Islamic heritage and Culture in Bhutan. This also happens to be one of the three countries in the world where no Mosque is available, the other two being Monaco and Slovakia.
However, there is a room dedicated to worship. It comprises four sections, each dedicated to Muslims, Hindus, Sikhs and Christians. It is situated in a small town named Jakar, Bumthang. The other option for Muslims is to offer prayers in their homes. Travelers can also perform prayers inside their hotel rooms.The nearest Mosque is situated in a village, Jaigaon, on the Bhutan-India Border. The Mosque is known as Jaigaon Mosque. It was established in 2008. However, practically, it is not situated inside Bhutan.
No formal Halal Food option is available in Bhutan. No restaurants or stores specifically offer halal foods anywhere in Bhutan. Bhutanese are mostly vegetarians. Additionally, there are many restaurants that do not serve Pork. So, that is the only option for Muslims to visit any such restaurant that serves vegetable-based food and is free from Pork. The other option is to cook your own food in your home.
