History During Pagan Min's reign, Mindon Prince and brother Ka Naung Prince ran away with their servants to Shwebo and started a rebellion. U Bo and U Yuet were the two Muslims who accompanied the princess. Some Kala Pyo Burmese Muslim artillery soldiers followed them.Konbaung Dynasty Royal History Vol. 3. Page 139.
In the Royal Defence Army, many Cannon-crew members were Kindar Kala Pyos and Myedu Muslims.U Maung Maung Tin’s Burmese Kings’ Royal Articles, page 66-71-72. Captain Min Htin Min Yazar’s 400 Muslims participated to clear the land for building a new Mandalay city. Kabul Maulavi was appointed an Islamic Judge by King Mindon to decide according to the Islamic rules and customs on Muslim affairs.
Burmese Muslims were given specific quarters to settle in the new city of MandalayThe “Twentieth Anniversary Special Edition of Islam Damma Beikman.” Myanmar Pyi and Islamic religion. The reprint of the records of the lectures given by Pathi U Ko Lay in 1973. from page 109,110 and 111.
King Mindon donated his palace teak pillars to build a mosque at North Obo in central Mandalay. His Majesty also permitted a mosque to be built on the granted site for the Panthays Burmese Chinese Muslims.The Emergence Of The Panthay Community At Mandalay, by Professor U Maung Maung Lay. Inside the Palace wall, for the Royal Body Guards, King Mindon himself donated and started the building of the Mosque by laying the Gold foundation at the South-eastern part of the Palace located near the present Independent Monument. This Mosque was called the Shwe Pannet Mosque. That mosque was destroyed by the British to build the Polo playground. The King donated the rest house in Mecca for his Muslim subjects performing Hajj.
