It is possible that the Srivijaya who renowned as a port trading center in Southeast Asia as well as a center of Buddhist learning is also visited by migrants from the Middle East and began to be influenced by Muslim traders and scholars. So some royal who was originally a part of the Srivijaya and then grow into the forerunner of Islamic kingdoms in Sumatra, one day while weakening the influence of Srivijaya.
