Back then, ancient Malay kingdoms within the northern region of the peninsula were still under Buddhist and Hindu influence. It is believed that Islam first arrived in Malaysia sometime between the 13th and the 14th century CE, via Arab and Indian-Muslim traders. At this time, the religion was embraced by only a select few. Islam became widespread in the region with the arrival and conversion of Parameswara, a Hindu prince and Singapore’s last king, who had established the Sultanate of Melaka in the 15th century CE. Melaka became a renowned hub of Islamic studies. Islam continued to flourish in the peninsula during the 15th and the 16th century CE, which greatly influenced the Malay lifestyle and culture as can be seen until today. The earliest evidence of the arrival of Islam in Malaysia was discovered in Terengganu, in the form of an ancient inscribed stone locally referred to as ‘Batu Bersurat’. Dated 1303 CE, the stone tablet with Jawi (Romanised Arabic) script on it stands as proof that Islam had arrived in the east coast region of the peninsula long before Parameswara embraced Islam.
