Hinduism has approximately 1.2 billion adherents worldwide (15% of the world's population).{{Cite web |last=Carter |first=Dylan |date=13 July 2023 |title=Hindus push for recognition as official religion in Belgium |url=https://www.brusselstimes.com/600334/hindus-push-for-recognition-as-official-religion-in-belgium |access-date=2023-10-22 |website=The Brussels Times |language=en |archive-date=27 September 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230927173151/https://www.brusselstimes.com/600334/hindus-push-for-recognition-as-official-religion-in-belgium |url-status=live }} Hinduism is the third largest religion in the world behind Christianity (32.8%) and Islam (23.3%).[http://www.pewforum.org/files/2012/12/globalReligion-tables.pdf Table: Religious Composition (%) by Country] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130805151827/http://www.pewforum.org/files/2012/12/globalReligion-tables.pdf |date=5 August 2013 }} Global Religious Composition, Pew Research Center (2012)

Most Hindus live in Asian countries, and the majority of Nepal and India are Hindus, and a significant number in Mauritius. The past two centuries have seen large-scale migration of Hindus from Southeast Asia, to around the world.{{Cite book |last=Rambachan |first=Anantanand |title="Global Hinduism: Contemporary Hinduism |date=July 21, 2004 |publisher=Bloomsbury Publishing USA |year=2004 |pages=381}} Countries with more than 500,000 Hindu residents and citizens are (in decreasing order) India, Nepal, Bangladesh, Indonesia, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, the United States, Malaysia, United Kingdom, Myanmar, Australia, Mauritius, South Africa, Canada, and the United Arab Emirates.

There are significant numbers of Hindu enclaves around the world, with many in South Africa, Canada, Australia and New Zealand. Hinduism is also practiced by the non-Indic people including the Balinese of Bali island (Indonesia), Tengger and Osing of Java (Indonesia), the Balamon Chams of Vietnam, and Butuanon people in Philippines.

Background

Hinduism is a heterogeneous religion and consists of many schools of thought. Hinduism includes a diversity of ideas on spirituality and traditions, but has no ecclesiastical order, no unquestionable religious authorities, no governing body, no prophet(s) nor any binding holy book; Hindus can be polytheistic, monotheistic, pantheistic, monistic, agnostic, humanist, or atheistic.Julius J. Lipner, Hindus: Their Religious Beliefs and Practices, 2nd Edition, Routledge, {{ISBN|978-0-415-45677-7}}, page 8; Quote: “(...) one need not be religious in the minimal sense described to be accepted as a Hindu by Hindus, or describe oneself perfectly validly as Hindu. One may be polytheistic or monotheistic, monistic or pantheistic, even an agnostic, humanist or atheist, and still be considered a Hindu".; MK Gandhi, [http://www.mkgandhi.org/ebks/essence_of_hinduism.pdf The Essence of Hinduism] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150724045756/http://www.mkgandhi.org/ebks/essence_of_hinduism.pdf |date=24 July 2015 }}, Editor: VB Kher, Navajivan Publishing, see page 3; According to Gandhi, "a man may not believe in God and still call himself a Hindu."

Early Migration

One of the first major waves of Hindus leaving the South Asia were a result of colonialism in India during 19th and early 20th century. Under indenture contracts, many Hindus migrated far across the world to Guyana, Surinam, Trinidad, Mauritius, South Africa, Eastern Africa, Fiji, Burma and Malaysia. These were some of the first countries with Hinduism established outside of the Indian sub-continent, many of which still have a thriving Hindu community today.

Demographic estimates

Demographic estimates of Hindu populations by country have been published by the Pew Research Center in 2012,[http://www.pewforum.org/2012/12/18/table-religious-composition-by-country-in-numbers/ Hindu population totals in 2010 by Country] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20161209223553/http://www.pewforum.org/2012/12/18/table-religious-composition-by-country-in-numbers/ |date=9 December 2016 }} Pew Research, Washington DC (2012) as well as US State Department's International Religious Freedom Report 2006.{{cite web |url=https://2001-2009.state.gov/g/drl/rls/irf |title=International Religious Freedom |publisher=State.gov |date=2009-01-20 |access-date=2012-03-05 |archive-date=5 July 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230705074825/https://2001-2009.state.gov/g/drl/rls/irf |url-status=live }}

{{Unreferenced section|date=April 2025}}

These percentages were calculated by using the above numbers. The first percentage, in the 4th column, is the percentage of the population that is Hindu in a specific region (Hindus in the region * 100/total population of the region). The last column shows the Hindu percentage compared to the total Hindu population of the world (Hindus in the region * 100/total Hindu population of the world).

(Note: Egypt, Sudan, and other Arab Maghreb countries are counted as part of North Africa, not the Middle East).
