Muslims in the Americas Before Columbus
Numerous evidence suggests that Muslims from Spain and West Africa arrived in the Americas at least five centuries before Co1umbus. Columbus had two captains of Muslim origin during his first transatlantic voyage: Martin and his brother Vicente Pinzon were related to Moroccan Sultan Abuzayan Muhammad III (1362 - 66 CE) of the Marinid dynasty (1196 - 1465 CE).
