Individual Muslim traders entered and settled in the Bechuanaland Protectorate (now Botswana) more than a century ago. As a result of their early arrival in the region, they unknowingly planted the seeds of Islam that has become part of Botswana's religious landscape. However, not enough information is available on this early period. This article is thus written to complement three earlier studies that throw some light on the early history and current demographics of Botswana's Muslim communities in the towns of Ramotswa and Lobaste. It aims to do so by re-narrating aspects of the Muslim community's social history thus assessing the development and demographics of those Muslim communities that reside in the towns of Ramotswa and Lobatse and have been now acknowledged as the early centers of Islam in Botswana.
