'''Adakkakundu''' is a village in [[Kalikavu]] Panchayat, [[Nilambur]] taluk in [[Malappuram district]] in the state of [[Kerala]] in southwest [[India]].

==Culture==
Adakkakundu village is a predominantly Muslim populated area. Hindus exist in comparatively smaller numbers. So the culture of the locality is based upon Muslim traditions. [[Duff muttu|Duff Muttu]], [[Kolkali]] and [[Aravana]]muttu are common folk arts of this locality. There are many libraries attached to mosques giving a rich source of Islamic studies. Most of the books are written in [[Arabi Malayalam|Arabi-Malayalam]] which is a version of the [[Malayalam]] language written in [[Arabic script]]. People gather in mosques for the evening prayer and continue to sit there after the prayers discussing social and cultural issues. Business and family issues are also sorted out during these evening meetings. The Hindu minority of this area keeps their rich traditions by celebrating various festivals in their temples. Hindu rituals are done here with a regular devotion like other parts of Kerala.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.malappuram.net/art-and-culture.htm |title=Archived copy |accessdate=2016-07-14 |url-status=dead |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20160401052519/http://malappuram.net/art-and-culture.htm |archivedate=2016-04-01 }}</ref>
