The first Muslim ruler in Kerala is generally considered to be Malik Ibn Dinar, an Arab trader and missionary who arrived in the region in the 7th century. He is credited with establishing one of the first mosques in India, the Cheraman Juma Mosque in Kodungallur. His arrival marked the beginning of Islam's influence in Kerala, leading to the establishment of a Muslim community in the region. Over time, various Muslim dynasties emerged, further shaping Kerala's socio-political landscape.
