Abstract	India’s trade relations with Arabia are very old. Long before the spread of Islam in Arabia, Arab traders used to come to trade on the west coast of India and the Deccan. This contact continued even after the spread of Islam in Arabia and since then the Arabs have been interested in expanding their trade relation in India. Arabs developed a good relationship with south India foe commercial reason. Cheraman Juma Masjid is the first mosques established in south India before the Arabs conquest Sindh in 712 AD. There is a difference of the opinion among the historians as to how the Cheraman Juma Masjid was established. Many miracles are also attributed to the establishment of this mosque. In the present paper an attempt has been made to judge various facts about the origin of Cheraman Juma Masjid from a historical perspective.
