hi, can u please lead me to books, articles, historical documents and materials, on which i can depend to prove the historical links between Kerala (Mappila Malabar) and Indonesia, which is part of my PhD work at JNU New Delhi, Zubair Hudawi zubyjnu@hotmail.com
You might want to look up the history of the Ba 'Alawi, and go up the genealogical tree. There is a Jiffri House in Calicut, and the Tsaqafat as-Sunniyah Madrasa also near to Calicut, which would have more documents and info both verbal and written on this.
