The chapter seeks to investigate the place of religion in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic in Zimbabwe. Using the concept of religion in relation to Islam, it explores the Islamic response to the COVID-19 pandemic in the country. This is inevitable in a context with a multi-religious landscape, which implies that people’s contribution to public health message was, by and large, shaped by religious beliefs and the response of religious actors. Yet, despite the fact that Zimbabwe is a multi-religious society, it has been a common practice to regard the dominant religion, Christianity, as the only key development agent that the Zimbabwean government could work with in the fight against the COVID-19 pandemic. In this way, minority religions such as Islam are excluded in development initiatives for health. Utilising a qualitative phenomenological research design, the chapter foregrounds the role of the Islamic community in promoting public health and human well-being during the COVID-19 pandemic through their cultural identity and other religious resources. As COVID-19 takes a downward curve, the chapter advocates for the inclusion of minority religions such as Islam in post-COVID-19 recovery initiatives and in any other future pandemics.
