El 1662, després que els holandesos van ocupar Cochin, els anglesos es van retirar a Ponani. El 1782 el coronel McLeod va desembarcar tropes des de Bombai i se li va unir la força del coronel Humberstone que havia abandonat el setge de Palghat i havia sortit de Manarikota (Mannarkkad) a marxes forçades seguit per Tipu Sultan i Lally. Unit a McLeod, les forces britàniques van rebutjar als perseguidors i després la mort d'Haidar Ali va fer que l'atac de Tipu (ara successor) ja no continués. Quan el coronel Hartley va fer el seu brillant descens a la costa oest la població de Ponani li va donar suport. (ca)

  • Ponnani (Malayalam pronunciation: ​[pon̺ːɐːn̺i]) is a municipality in Ponnani Taluk, Malappuram District, in the state of Kerala, India. It serves as the administrative center of the Taluk and Block Panchayat of the same name. It is situated at the estuary of Bharatappuzha (River Ponnani), on its southern bank, and is bounded by the Arabian Sea on the west and a series of brackish lagoons in the south. It is the seventh-most populated municipality in the state, the second-most populated municipality in the district, and the most densely populated municipality in Malappuram district, having about 3,646 residents per square kilometre as of the year 2011. As of the 2011 Census, the municipality forms a part of Malappuram metropolitan area. National Highway 66, from to Panvel to Kanyakumari, passes through Ponnani Municipality. The Palakkad-Ponnani State Highway which connects National Highway 66 with National Highway 544 is another important road.The River Tirur‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ joins River Ponnani at its mouth at Patinjarekkara Beach from the north bank, opposite to Ponnani. The Colonial-era Cannoly Canal ("the Ponnani Canal") bisects Ponnani town. Ponnani is located 68 km south to Kozhikode city, 48 km southwest to Malappuram city, 91 km northwest to Palakkad city, and 50 km northwest to Thrissur city. Ponnani is located right in the middle of the Kerala coast. In the Middle Ages, under the ambitious Hindu chiefs of Kozhikode (the Samutiris/Zamorins), Ponnani developed as one of the most important centers of Muslim trade - both overseas and domestic - on the Arabian Sea. The port also served as the military headquarters of the Kozhikode rulers. With the arrival of the Portuguese explorers in the late - 15th century, the city witnessed several battles between the Admirals of Kozhikode and the Portuguese for the monopoly in the Spice Trade. Whenever a formal war was broke out between the Portuguese and the Kozhikode rulers, the Portuguese attacked and plundered, as the opportunity offered, the port of Ponnani. The relentless battles lead to the eventual decline of the settlement, with the exodus of Middle Eastern merchants, and the rulers who protected it. Presently, Ponnani is one of the major fishing centers in Kerala. The original headquarters of the Perumbadappu Swaroopam, who later became the Kingdom of Cochin, was at Chithrakoodam in Vanneri, Perumpadappu, which is located 10 km south to Puthuponnani, in Ponnani taluk. When Perumpadappu came under the kingdom of the Zamorin of Calicut, the rulers of Perumpadappu fled to Kodungallur, and later they moved to Kochi, where they established the Kingdom of Cochin. The city of Ponnani also provided ideological support for the battles against the Estado da Índia. It was the home of the revered Makhdum family. Prominent members of this Yemeni family of Islamic theologians included Zain-ud-Din Makhdum I (1467 - 1521) and his grandson Zain-ud-Din Makhdum II (1530 - 1581). Makhdum II is known for his formidable historical chronicle Tuhfat al-Mujahidin ("Glory to the Victory of Mujahidun", c. 1583), first printed and published in Lisbon. A copy of this edition has been preserved in the library of Al-Azhar University, Cairo. The Ponnani Jum'ah Masjid, also known as Valiya Jum'ah Palli/Makhdum Mosque, was built in the 16th century AD. Ponnani, once known as the "Little Mecca of Malabar" and the "Jami'at al-Azhar of Malabar", was a prominent center of Islamic learning. It is known that students from as far as Sumatra, Java and Sri Lanka traveled to Ponnani for their spiritual education. The town was described in many sources as "the Land of 23½ Mosques". It currently has around 50 mosques, spread around the town. During the months of February and March, large number of migratory birds flock at Ponnani (both Ponnani and Patinjarekkara Beaches). Arabi Malayalam script, a script used to write Malayalam, was originated at Ponnani. The script was also known as "the Ponnani Script". Bharathappuzha, also known as the Ponnani River, has contributed much to the Malayalam literature. (en)
  • Ponnani (o Ponani) è una suddivisione dell'India, classificata come municipality, di 87.356 abitanti, situata nel distretto di Malappuram, nello stato federato del Kerala. In base al numero di abitanti la città rientra nella classe II (da 50.000 a 99.999 persone). (it)
  • Ponnani, ou Panane (em português), é um município no estado de Querala, na Índia. Está situada no estuário de Rio Panane (Ponnani, Bharatappuzha), na margem sul, e é delimitado pelo Mar da Arábia no oeste e uma série de lagoas salobras no sul. O Canal Ponnani divide a cidade de Panane. Na Idade Média, sob os ambiciosos chefes hindus de Kozhikode (os Samutiris / Zamorins), Ponnani se desenvolveu como um dos mais importantes centros de comércio muçulmano - tanto no exterior quanto no mercado doméstico - no mar da Arábia. O porto também serviu como quartel-general militar dos governantes de Calecute. Com a chegada dos exploradores portugueses no final do século XV, a cidade testemunhou várias batalhas entre os almirantes de Calecute e os portugueses pelo monopólio do comércio de especiarias. Sempre que uma guerra formal ocorreu entre os portugueses e os governantes de Calecute (Kozhikode), os portugueses atacaram e saquearam, conforme a oportunidade oferecida, o porto de Ponnani. As batalhas implacáveis levam ao eventual declínio do assentamento, com êxodo dos mercadores do Médio Oriente e dos governantes que o protegiam. Atualmente, Panane é um dos principais centros pesqueiros de Querala . A cidade de Panane também deu suporte ideológico às lutas contra o Estado da Índia. Era a casa da venerada família Makhdum. Membros proeminentes desta família iemenita de teólogos islâmicos incluíam Zain-ud-Din Makhdum I (1467 - 1521) e seu neto Zain-ud-Din Makhdum II (1530 - 1581). Makhdum II é conhecido pela sua formidável crónica histórica Tuhfat al-Mujahidin ("Glória à Vitória de Mujahidun", c. 1583), impressa e publicada pela primeira vez em Lisboa . Uma cópia desta edição foi preservada na biblioteca da Universidade Al-Azhar, Cairo . A mesquita Ponnani Jum'ah Masjid, também conhecida como Valiya Jum'ah Palli / Makhdum, foi construída no século XVI. Ponnani, antes conhecida como a "Pequena Meca de Malabar" e " Jami'at al-Azhar de Malabar", foi um importante centro de aprendizagem islâmica. É sabido que estudantes de lugares distantes como Sumatra, Java e Sri Lanka viajaram para Ponnani para sua educação espiritual. A cidade foi descrita em muitas fontes como "a terra das 23½ mesquitas". Atualmente, possui cerca de 50 mesquitas, espalhadas pela cidade. Durante os meses de fevereiro e março, um grande número de aves migratórias se aglomeram em Panane (nas praias de Ponnani e Patinjarekkara). A escrita Panane usada para escrever Malabar, foi originada em Ponnani. (pt)
