"Where are the remains of the so-called Muslim explorers who came before Columbus?

Until such evidence appears, I find your claim highly unlikely."

there is no evidence that they coverted the Native Americans to Islam.

"...And for the record, Christopher Columbus, the man who so-called
discovered America, himself declared that his impression of the Carib
people( i.e., Caribbean people) were "Mohemmedans." He knew of the
Mandinka presence in the New World( Muslims) and that Muslims from
the West coast of Africa had settled down in the Carribean, Central,
South and North America. Unlike Columbus, they had not come to
enslave the populations or plunder the land; they had come to trade
and they married among the Natives. Columbus further admitted that on
October 21st, 1492, as he was sailing past Gibara on the coast of
Cuba, he saw a mosque, and remnants of other masjids have been found
in Cuba, Mexico, Texas and Nevada...."

. ...On the second voyage Columbus took to the West Indies, the people of Haiti told him that "black" people had been there before him. They showed him spears of these visitors, and further study of the metals involved in their construction showed that they could have been made only in one place: Guinea.

Do you have any outside sources aside from an Islamic source that would support the evidence you posted?

We were in the Americas, hundreds of years before Columbus, and of that we can be sure.

[B]Barry Fell. Alexander Von Wuthenau. Ivan Van Sertima . What do they have in common? A lot. They all provided evidence to the above statement; and it is a statement of fact, not an opinion, although many have chosen to ignore it in the past.

These three men are not Muslims. In fact, two of them are Caucasian.
