Akbar ordered a converted Brahmin to write Allopanishad. This book was then fraudulently inserted in genuine copies of Atharva Veda.

One verse of Allopanishad reads-"Allo Rasula Mahamad Akbarasya allam"

Until early 20th century, many Atharvaveda manuscripts had Allopanishad
Akbar's dirty trick almost succeeded. Many manuscripts of Atharvaveda carried Allopanishad until 20th century.. It also had a chapter proclaiming the supremacy of Allah and the religion of Islam over polytheism. Swami Dayananda Saraswati started the movement to purge Allopanishad
This fraudulent "Allopanishad" was promoted by "Mahatma" Gandhi who certified it as one of 108 authentic Upanishads

[Excerpt from Gandhi's Speech at prayer meeting, Apr 4, 1947]
A snippet from Allopanishad. Allah is referred to as "jyeshta" and "parama purna Brahmana". And it breaks into a sort of magical spell "janaan pashoon siddhaan jalacharaan adrstam kuru kuru phat".

It was later claimed anybody who mastered Allopanishad could make things disappear
