Jat Muslim or Musalman Jat (Punjabi: جٹ مسلمان; Sindhi: مسلمان جاٽ), also spelled Jatt or Jutt (Punjabi pronunciation:[d͡ʒəʈːᵊ]), are an elastic and diverse[1] ethno-social subgroup of the Jat people, who are composed of followers of Islam and are native to the northern regions of the Indian subcontinent.[2] They are found primarily throughout the Sindh and Punjab regions of Pakistan.[3][4] Jats began converting to Islam from the early Middle Ages onward and constitute a distinct subgroup within the diverse community of Jat people.[5]
