Based on this definition of the notion of mediation or mediatisation and its functions, and based on the central concepts of this process, such as transformation, contextualisation, framing the news, the media as actors, etc., we start, in this article, to observe how religion is mediatised in the Moroccan public space. Therefore, a mediatised religion is one that has undergone transformations in its praxis due to the fact that it has passed through the media. No one can deny the transformations that the praxis of Islam in Morocco has undergone due to the intervention of different types of media in the production of religious symbols and meanings, and in their consumption in Moroccan society, that is, due to the mediation or mediatisation of religion. Among the consequences of the mediation of Islam in Morocco are certain aspects linked to certain religious behaviours.
