The population of Kavajë belongs in part to two religious denominations, Muslim and Orthodox Christian.
The Muslim population nominally makes up ¾ of the total population.
The remaining ¼ belong to the Orthodox faith.
These are estimates which don't hold into account atheists and other non-believers.
The municipality office maintains no official statistics on religion.

The largest of the four mosques in the city is Kubelie Mosque (Xhamia Kubelie), named after the old mosque built by Kapllan Beu in 1736 and later demolished by the communist regime in 1967.
The existing mosque was rebuilt in 1994.

The Piety Mosque (Xhamia e Devotshmërisë) was built in the Zguraj neighbourhood in 2001 with funds from a Saudi charity organization.
The Dedei Mosque (Xhamia e Haxhi, Mynyre dhe Dervish Dedeit) was built in 2005 with funds from the Dedei Family.
There is also a small teqe built in recent years within the city limits and another one in the village of Luz i Madh.

Followers of the orthodox faith attend the Shën Kolli Church located near Besa Stadium.
The church was rebuilt in 1997, on the same land as the old one with funds from Greece.

St.
Paraskevi's Church (Kisha e Shën Premtes) is located 1.5 kilometres (1 mile) east of Kavajë in the village of Çetë.
It was built during the 13th century and today serves as a cultural monument.
The frescos inside the church are works of the well-known iconic painter Kostandin Shpataraku.

A smaller church is found in the village of Rreth-Greth, formerly a part of Kryevidh Commune.
It's attended by the locals of that area.
