#Thread on some intriguing, politically incorrect, yet historically correct facts from the annals of Medieval Indian #History under #Islamic rule, which hopefully will contribute in awakening the ‘hyper secular’ Hindus from decades of slumber. #India #Lovejihad #Slavery #Hindu
Fact No. 1:
Relentless business of capturing Hindus, enslaving then and forcefully converting them to Islam, in every inhuman possible way, was a favourite sport of every ‘pious’ Islamic ruler or noble in Medieval India, starting from rule of Ghaznis,..
.. Ghoris Till Slave Dynasty and Mughals in north and Bahmanis, Nizams, Haider Ali and Tipu Sultan in South. This gradually led to the growth of Muslim Population in India.
In this context,Prof. K S Lal observes, “it needs no reiteration that every slave captured in war or purchased in the market or sent in lieu of revenue or tribute was invariably converted to Islam,...
so that slave taking in medieval India was the most flourishing and successful missionary endeavour.”
K M Ashraf also notes ,” the slaves added to the growing Muslim population of India.”
I H Qureshi further corroborates the above in following words :-
“Every Sultan, as champion of Islam, considered it a political necessity to plant or raise Muslim population all over India for Islamisation of the country and countering native resistance.”
Though it appears politically driven, the motivation for such political venture was from a certain book followed religiously and fanatically by invaders from Central Asia and the land of deserts.
Fact No.2 :
Most of the present Indian Muslim population is a result of forced conversion of their Hindu ancestors, throughout the Islamic rule in Medieval India, under special unfavourable circumstances.
In this context, let’s see what contemporary chronicler Ziyauddin Barani says :-

“Although this freedom and equality did not come at once, their servile origins were allowed to be obliterated in the third or fourth generation. This was the reward of conversion...
.. There also developed a feeling of freedom even in slavery and a vanity in belonging to the ‘ruling class’. After a few generations, the Indian Muslim forgot the circumstances of his ancestors’ enslavement and conversion; he began to take pride of his new faith..
.. because it opened up for him new avenues of rise and gave him share in the rulers’ or masters’ wealth and loot. And so enslavement and proselytisation went on hand in hand.”
Fact 3:

Imprisonment of Hindu men and women in masses confined even during the reign of Akbar, the (Un) Great and his relatively’ kind hearted Mughal emperor’ Jehangir , Which contributed to the swelling of Muslim population in Medieval India.
As per the military actions recorded in Akbar Nama II by Abul Fazl,
“Mughal General, Abdulla Khan Uzbeg’s force of 12,000 horses and 20,000 foot soldiers destroyed, in the Kalpi-Kannauj area alone, all towns, took all their goods, their wives and children as slaves & beheaded...
.. and ‘immortered’ (fixed heads with mortar in walls and pillars) the chiefest of their men. “
Shah Nawaz Khan, further quotes the same Mughal General, Uzbeg declaring with pride after every campaign :-

“I made prisoners of five lacs of men and women and sold them. They all became Muhammadans. From their progeny there will be crores by the day of judgement.”
During those days, Hindu men and women were forcefully converted and made to reproduce which in due course of time, contributed hugely to growth of Muhammadan population in India.
However, in present secular India, many of our hyper secular Hindu women are voluntarily contributing to their population, with or without conversion, unaware of history and the tenets of that cult.
Sorry for sounding misogynistic (in the prev. tweet) & politically incorrect here but truth is always a bitter pill, hard to swallow. Only those who r courageous enough can face the naked truth, which means is being whitewashed in the name of politically motivated ‘sickularism’.

A)John of Monte Corvino, one of the first Christian Monks who spent considerable time in South India preaching, observed dressing style of men and women in certain regions of Indian peninsula during 12-13th century CE:-
“They (Men and women) are not, strictly speaking, black, but of an olive colour, and exceedingly well formed both women and men. They go barefoot and naked, except that they wear a cloth round the loins, and boys and girls up to eight years of age wear nothing whatever,..

“Royal women are not veiled.Most of the princes of India, when they hold a court, allow their women to be seen by the men who attend it, whether they be natives or foreigners.

No veil conceals them from the eyes of the visitor.”
