The first theory is trade. The expansion of trade among West Asia, India and Southeast Asia helped the spread of the religion as Muslim traders brought Islam to the region. Gujarati Muslims played a pivotal role in establishing Islam in Southeast Asia. The second theory is the role of missionaries or Sufis.

Answer:

The first Southeast Asian Muslims were local merchants (converted in the 700s), hoping to have better trading relations with the Islamic merchants. - Sufis did their missionary work in Southeast Asia.
