Why Muslims are under rated.

But guys, lets just look at the Mayan and Tzotzil Indian Muslims. They were all originally Muslims before Christians conquered and forced them to convert to Christianity. Even now, there are converts and they say Islam truly rediscovered their indian values. Surely this means that Islam has a significant history in Indian roots.

I believe over 300 Tzotzil, Mayan have converted to Islam in Mexico. That's pretty impressive.

In a country of 112 million people, there are about 3,700 muslims in Mexico.

That's not that impressive:

The Spanish missionary Muhammad Nafia (formerly Aureliano Pérez), now emir of the Comunidad Islámica en México, arrived in the state of Chiapas shortly after the (1994) Zapatista uprising and established a commune in the city of San Cristóbal.

The Moors were the medieval Muslim inhabitants of the northernmost Mediterranean coast of North Africa, who invaded Hispania (modern-day Spain and Portugal) in the 8th century forming what became known as Al-Andalus. They were expelled by reconquering Catholics of the Peninsula in the 15th century through a process called Reconquista, after eight centuries of war.
