What religion do Swahili people practice? Swahili people practice the religion of Islam. Swahili people recognize the Five Pillar of Faith: 1) Belief in Allah as the Supreme Being and in Muhammad as the most important prophet;
2) Praying five times a day; 3) Fasting from dawn to dusk during the month of Ramadan;
4) Giving charity; and
5) Making a pilgrimage (hajj) to the holy city of Mecca, if possible.
