This thesis examines the residential shifts of the Muslim community in Cape Town prior to the Group Areas Act, as a result of the Group Areas Act, and currently in 2013. It also explores how the Muslim community has transformed as a result of these changing residential patterns. This thesis confronts the question of where have Muslims been living in Cape Town and how have residential choices affected the Muslim community.
