ARAB INVASION OF INDIA. Image
Before Going Forward, Let's Look at India's western Border before Arab Invasion

Western Border of India had:
1. kapisi in North
2.sindh in South
3. Tsao Kuta in Between.

These 3 Roughly Equals to Modern day Afghanistan and Pakistan Combined Together. Image
For the First Time, Arabs Raided Thane, Broach and Debal in The Year 636-637.

Raid Ended in Disaster as The Muslim army Was Put to Slaughter. Image
Disturbed by This Disaster, Arabs Sent an Army From Western Land Route, I.e. Makran Desert.

But the Army was Recalled when Arabs learned that Sindh had a More powerful Army Image
Ali too sent An Army, but that Was Slaughtered. Image
Then Arabs Sent Another army towards Kabul Under Abdallah, Which ended in Disaster. Image
For More Than Twenty Years, Arabs Tried to Capture Desert borderland of Makran, but we're Unable to. Image
For next 25 years, Arabs made No attempts to Attack Sindh.

Then, Aj-Hajjaj became the Governor of Iraq.

He had ambition of conquering India. Image
Once, king of Sri Lanka sent few muslim Women to Khalifa, which were Captured by Pirates in Debal.

Al-Hajjaj wrote to Dahir, but Dahir said that He had No Control Over the Pirates.

This Gave Arabs another reason to attack. Image
Al-Hajjaj sent 2 More Forces to attack Sindh but Both Were Destroyed.

Then, he appointed his Nephew and Son in Law Bin-Kasim as Incharge of Expedition. ImageImage
Bin- Kasim then Proceeded to Debal where City Was Captured and Inhabitants were Slaughtered Ruthlessly For 3 Days.

Then, He Went to Nerun, Where Buddhist Monks Not Only Surrendered the City, But also helped kasim in Further Conquests. Image
Read This and Weep. Image
Then Kasim Proceeded to Raor and Jitor, Where Local Feudatories of Dahir Betrayed him and Joined Bin Kasim. Image
Some More Traitors Betrayed Dahir and Joined Kasim. Image
Finally, a Pitched Battle Took Place.

Hindus Fought Bravely and victory was Near but Then Local Chiefs who Betrayed Dahir Came to Aid the Arabs.

Arabs Sent Naptha Shots on Dahir's elephant, which Plunged into water.

Dahir was Shot with an Arrow and His Head was Cut off. Image
