Islamic economy and Hajj — selected official statistics
These cover different geographies and reporting periods; they are not OIC country rankings. Each observation has its own scope and reference year.

Membership follows OIC. Fixed-year values come from World Development Indicators, not PulseKita estimates. Ranks cover only OIC members with data for that metric and year. Current-US-dollar GDP is not PPP or household prosperity.
SESRIC is an additional OIC-specific reference; its figures are not reproduced here without verified values and dates.
