Islamic Religious Centres in Kanyakumari District

Abstract

Muslims constitute an important web in the social fabric of India. While India is the original home of Hinduism which constitutes a system of beliefs and rituals for the great majority of our people, Indian ethos has liberally accommodated other faiths which penetrated, the sub-continent at different points. Several centuries later, Islam was introduced to the people living on the West Coast of India by the Arab traders and this happened much before the Muslim conquest of Sind. These early beginnings make many changes in religion such as Hinduism Christianity and Islam.
