Upon reaching the new lands, Columbus encountered people with dark skin tinged with redness. He ignorantly assumed they were from India and labeled them 'Red Indians' to differentiate them from the people of the Asian continent.
During his voyage, Columbus reportedly saw a mosque with minarets and Arabic inscriptions on a mountain in Cuba in 1492. On his second journey to Haiti, he observed spears similar to those used by African Muslims and noted that the indigenous people's food resembled that of Muslims.
