The role played by Indian Muslims in the history of the Malay Archipelago in general and in early Malaya and then Malaysia in particular has been recognized by various scholars as largely unrecorded. This pioneering work by well-known Malaysian political scientist and historian Professor Farish A. Noor, Senior Fellow at Nanyang Technological University Singapore, will help to close this historical gap. As economic, cultural as well as religious activities of Indian Muslims in the region are covered, this well-researched book, drawing on sources from archives in the wider region, is an introduction to this topic and may also serve as an impetus for others to research these areas in greater detail.
