The Cheraman Mosque in Kerala India is the first Mosque built in sub-continent. And it was built by the Raja of Bhopal.
I want to know the story behind construction of this mosque by a non-Muslim (who by some history is said to be a converted Muslim).
Wrong
It was build by a tamil king from south and he was cheraman perumal!!
Yes it is rumoured he had met prophet muhammed himself and he died on the way back home!!!
His followers (hindus fo course) built the mosque in his memory for his contribution to society!!!!
They say he converted to islam, however no concrete proof is available on anything
Indian members here have some information ?
Sorry to burst your bubble. The story that Cheraman Permal converted to Islam after seeing the moon split is laughable. Because the moon was never split and perumal never converted to Islam.
Islam came to Malabar with the contact of Arab merchant settling and inter marrying with locals. Their number increased gradually .Until 1700 the percentage of Muslims was about 3% in Kerala . After that a lot of revolts culminating in the 1921 Mappila Lahala and the invasion of Malabar by Tippu sultan/Haider increased the Muslim presence .Now it stands at 25% .That is the truth.
jana....great diging up nice share
incredible india.....thanks for the picture share,i wonder the stories the walls would tell of different times if they could speak.
pagans.....u must be a north indian,i have south indian freinds even hindu's they are quite tolerant ppl more of a gentlemen,we used to have a laugh that india is prospering but it would prosper quicker if north indians could learn to co exist,or if south india became a seprate state then it would be a super power in no time only northerners are holding back its full potential and are a burden on whole of india.
I would better like to hear the bold part from south Indian rather than pakistani.... so no need of your "intellectuals"
Not a big news, once I quoted this to somebody in this very forum, who was not ready to admit it and said it is Pakistanis who are the first one in the Indian sub Continent.
he must be indian pretending to be a pakistani, or you are plainly lying
like a indian would dare to be so frank abt his negative feelings of north before a indian and that also a supporter of bjp he would be in hell with ur agencies but i would tell u this much he is a engineer what type and where did he serve in india can pinpoint him so cannot share,though with in the jokes i did offer him my services to connect with isi if south ever decides to go solo ,lols thats just awesome
