Book synopsis

The work discusses the authenticity of local Islamic cultures and the practice of local Islamic cultures in Malabar. Historians had emphasized that the advent of Islam in Malabar was in its early years. The nine century long Arab interference from sixth century to the fifteenth century caused to the cultural exchange between Malabar and Arabia. When Islam spread in to the rural areas of Malabar many low caste and middle class Hindus converted to Islam and as a result many Hindu customs mixed with the Islamic culture. The local culture of Malabar had influenced Islamic culture to an extent. Thus there formed a local Islamic culture in Malabar which is different from the other Islamic cultures. This special Islamic culture will be received because the local customs had much consideration in Islam if it was not opposing the primary Islamic references.
