The discussion Talk:Malabar Muslims#Request for comment on generalizing the origin of Mappilas seem to be over. And I personally found out that it's inappropriate to generalize all the Mappilas from the lower caste converts. Remove that part from the lead section. Hionsa (talk) 13:42, 5 May 2025 (UTC)

Arakkal Rajas
Can this line be added?
Mapillas like the Arakkal Rajas descended from the Kshatriya nobility of Kerala.
"Arakkal royal family traced its origins to a branch of the Kolattiri, a prominent ruling clan in North Malabar"
