The '''Islamic world''', also known as the '''Muslim world''', consists of the global community of [[Muslims]] who adhere to the religion of [[Islam]] and live in societies where Islam is prevalent (Waldman & Zeghal, 2026). This community is often referred to as the '''''Ummah''''' (Arabic: أمة), meaning "nation" or "community" (Waldman & Zeghal, 2026). In a modern geopolitical sense, the term refers to countries where Islam is widespread, though there are no universally agreed criteria for inclusion (''TheFreeDictionary.com'', n.d.). The alternative term "'''Muslim-majority countries'''" is frequently used to describe nations where Muslims constitute more than 50% of the population (Waldman & Zeghal, 2026).
