The Ottoman Empire held that SUNNI ISLAM as understood by the Caliph in Istanbul was the official religion. However, there were many religious minorities throughout the Ottoman Empire. Most important among these were the Orthodox Christians (Greeks, Jugoslavs, Georgians, and Ukrainians), Armenian Christians, Catholics (Hungarians and Jugoslavs), Coptic Christians (Egyptians and Nubians), and Jews (mixed throughout). There were also smaller religious minorities like the Sabeans, Shabaki, Mandaeans, Yezidis, Yarsanis, Baha'i, and others in specific areas of the empire.
Sunni Islam was the most common religion and the one endorsed by the State. The next largest was Orthodox Christianity (all denominations combined) and was concentrated in the Balkans.
The Caliph of the Ottoman Empire represented the religious leadership of the Sunni Muslims and granted legitimacy to the Ottoman Empire as the vanguard of Islam.

One of the most noteworthy attributes of Ottoman Turkish rule was Ottoman toleration of different religious beliefs. The Turks of the Ottoman Empire were Muslims, but they did not force their religions on others. Christians and Jews in the Empire prayed in their own churches or synagogues, taught their religion in their own schools and seminaries, and went about their business, sometimes amassing great fortunes. At that time, Ottoman toleration was unique. The tradition of Turkish tolerance came from both religious belief and practicality.
