Islam is the oldest recorded monotheistic religion in the Philippines (however, not the oldest religion overall). Islam reached the Philippines between the 12th and 14th century with the arrival of Muslim traders from the Persian Gulf, Southern India, and their followers from several sultanate governments in the Malay Archipelago. The first areas to be converted to Islam were the islands of the Sulu archipelago.
The Muslim Moros are a multilingual ethnic group that comprised about 5.25% of the total Philippine population (2005). Their name originated from the Spanish word Moor, and they mostly live in the western part of Mindanao Island, the Sulu Archipelago and nearby islands.
There are at least ten Moro ethno-linguistic subgroups, all descended from the same Malayan stock that populated the rest of the Philippines. Three of these groups make up the majority of the Moro. They are:
the Maguindanaos of North Cotabato, Sultan Kudarat, and Maguindanao provinces; the Maranaw of the two Lanao provinces; and the Tausug of the Sulu Archipelago.

Lapu-lapu
Islam is a monotheistic and Abrahamic religion articulated by the Qur'an, a text considered by its adherents to be the verbatim word of God or Allh, and by the teachings and normative example (called the Sunnah and composed of Hadith) of Muhammad, considered by them to be the last prophet of God. An adherent of Islam is called a Muslim.
The Koran contains no specific instruction for the architectural form of its worship space. Filipino Muslims are free to interpret these basic requirements in accordance with their preexisting ideas.
The physical features of early Philippine mosques have been ascertained through the amalgamation of Islamic and indigenous notions about the form which sacred architecture should assume.

It is a multi-family dwelling (where) big ceremonies are celebrated and held(it) is symbolic of rank, prestige and status. Its erection connotes only lineage of the highest rank, for only the datu class and in particular those holding the highest titles are allowed to build such a structure. Its construction is only made possible through communal efforts, as manifestation of the support for the ruling class, as well as an indication of the power that the ruling body wields within a particular area" (David Baradas. Asian Studies, 1968) Known for its row of carved panolong in ornate okil (okir) carvings

YAKAN HOUSE
A Traditional Yakan house is called lumah. It is a rectangular structure with 50 to 100 square meters area and 2 meters elevated above the ground by timber posts. The Yakan houses were usually clustered around the langgal or local prayer house, which is the center of the community, but they don't have compact villages because the houses were scattered among the fields and the houses were surrounded by fruit trees and vegetables. Three main components: the main house, the kitchen and the pantan or porch.
The houses of the Yakan people face the east, and according to their beliefs the building materials should be stockpiled also in the east. The sapiaw or the roof is made of a steeply pitched cogon on bamboo or timber frames. The walls are made of wooden bamboo strips called sawali. The floor may be made of bamboo but often times it is made of timber. There are no ceilings and only one window or tandiwan was allowed for the main house . The tandiwan and ladder were allowed at the kitchen house.
