Resumo: Islamic practices of enslaved Africans in 16th century Portugal are discussed through an Atlantic methodology, highlighting relations between Islam in Senegal and Gambia Rivers’ region and Muslim African religiosities in Portugal. This approach aims to analyze African cultures in a diaspora context. Then, Muslim African features are discussed in Portugal; back to Africa, those features are connected to local institutions; back again to Portugal, both data are compared. The sources analyzed are European travelers’ accounts, jesuits’ letters and inquisitorial records. Muslim beliefs in Portugal are linked to their African experiences, what emphasizes the role of Islam in Senegambian societies.
