Thailand has a Muslim community of approximately 5.4 percent of the population per the 2018 government statistics, numbering roughly 3.7 to 4 million people, predominantly concentrated in the four southernmost provinces of Pattani, Yala, Narathiwat, and Satun (where ethnic Malay Muslims constitute the demographic majority and where a long-running insurgency against the Thai state has been a feature of the region since 2004). The community is composed of two principal groups: the ethnic Malays of the Deep South (descendants of the historic Pattani Sultanate, predominantly Sunni of the Shafi'i school, Malay-speaking) and the Thai Muslims of central and northern Thailand (predominantly descendants of South Asian, Indonesian, Iranian, and Yunnanese migrants, Thai-speaking). The Pattani Central Mosque (Krue Se Mosque), traditionally dated to 1578, is the oldest mosque in Thailand and the historical center of Pattani Islamic identity. The Sheikhul Islam Office (Chularajmontri) is the highest-ranking Islamic authority in Thailand, established by royal decree. eSalah uses the Muslim World League default; Kemenag-Indonesia is alternate.
