Muslim Makwana

The Makwana are a Hindu and Muslim community of Gujarat.[citation needed]

The Makwana Muslims are now mainly small peasant proprietors found in north Gujarat. According to their traditions, their ancestor Bapuji, the son of Harpal Makwana, converted to Islam. He founded to the principality of Lalpur-Mandva, in Mahikantha. They are Sunni Muslims and speak Gujarati.[citation needed]

Some members have converted to Islam.[1][2]
