The Moroccan Constitution protects freedom of religion; however proselytizing is also forbidden. Article 220 of the Moroccan Penal Code applies the same potential punishment of a fine and up to 6 months in prison for any attempt to interfere with a person’s exercise religious beliefs or attendance at religious services, and to “anyone who employs incitements to shake the faith of a Muslim or to convert him/her to another religion.”
