Palaiya Jumma Palli, Oldest Mosque in India #deccandiaries #islamichistory #history Deccan Voice

Both Cheraman Juma Mosque and Palaiya Jumma Palli are considered among the very first and oldest mosques not just in India, but in the entire world. Because they were built during the same era, historians and local traditions frequently debate which one claims the absolute #1 spot. A quick look at the history of both sites: 1. Cheraman Juma Mosque (Kodungallur, Kerala) • Estimated Date: 629 CE • Background: Often widely cited as the first mosque in India. According to historical accounts, it was built by Malik Dinar, a companion of the Prophet Muhammad, at the request of the Chera king, Cheraman Perumal, who is said to have traveled to Arabia and embraced Islam. • Architecture: Built in a traditional, sloping-roofed Kerala style without minarets initially, closely resembling the local heritage and 7th-century maritime trade connections with Arabia. 2. Palaiya Jumma Palli (Kilakarai, Tamil Nadu) • Estimated Date: 628–630 CE • Background: Also known as the Meen Kadai Palli or Old Jumma Masjid, this is generally considered the second oldest mosque in India (and sometimes claimed as the first). It was built by Arab and Yemeni merchants settling in the ancient Pandyan Kingdom port town of Kilakarai. • Architecture: It is a fascinating blend of Dravidian and Islamic architecture, featuring temple-style stone pillars combined with an arched prayer niche Cheraman vs Palaiya Jumma Palli: India Ki Sabse Pehli Masjid Kaun Si Hai?

Because both were built in the 7th century during the lifetime of Prophet Muhammad, historians and regional records consider them the earliest mosques in the country Duniya aaj kehti hai ki Islam India mein jung aur hamlon ke zariye aaya, lekin tareekh (history) kuch aur hi kehti hai.
