Cheraman Juma Masjid - Kodungallur.
The significance of Cheraman Juma Masjid in the Muziris Heritage Project lies in the fact that it is the first mosque in India. Built in 629 AD by Malik Ibn Dinar it is located in the diatrict of Thrissur in Kerala, on the Paravur- Kodungallur road. The oral tradition is that Cheraman Perumal, the Chera king, went to Arabia where he met the Prophet Muhammed(s) and embraced Islam. From there he had sent letters with Malik Ibn Dinar to his relatives in Kerala, asking them to be courteous to the latter. The masjid is believed to have been renovated in the 11th century and also 300 years ago. The front portion was expanded in 1974 and further expanded in 1984. The older part of the mosque including the Sanctum Sanctorum is left untouched and is still preserved. Its grandeur is still kept alive by the wooden steps and ceiling. People of all religions come to this mosque and many non-muslims conduct vidhyarambham of their children here. Thank you.
