Mir Aulad Muhammad Zaka wrote regarding the destruction of Puna 🔥
“Asaf Jah with the flag of Sulaiman,
Set in flames, the Brahman city,
throughout the fire ran :
From Zaka’s ardent soul,
Now hear how the glorious date —
From the forces of islam,
Geat Puna met it's fate”

#Claim_1: The credit of Alzebra is falsely given to Al Khawarizmi since he plagiarised the work from Hindu accounts.
#Reply: The attached snippet mentions no such thing about his Kitab al-jabr wa'l Muqabala which is his work on Alzebra. How can she accuse him of plagiarism?
#Claim_2: Mathematics reached Baghdad through Indian scholars & Caliph Al Mansur commissioned Al Khawarizmi to copy their knowledge.
#Reply: No, Al-Beruni said no such thing, you are lying by posting the PREFACE of translation. @SagasofBharat, you lost your credibility here. 👎
The Hindu extremists have lately dared to mock the noble and the great faith of Islam. Let us however look at what their scriptures have to say on this.
[ THREAD 🧵 ] : Outrages on women committed by Dharmik deities according to Dharmik scriptures.
How did Hindu-Muslim conflict start ?
🕉️ — vs — ☪️
When companions of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ were fighting against Persians, the #Hindu kings would send reinforcements to help the Persians to fight against the Muslims.
The Muslims kept quiet and did nothing.
Then again, Hindu pirates of Sindh captured and dishonoured a number of Muslim women and kids travelling from Sri Lanka to Baghdad in 8th century.
The Caliphate demanded those innocent civilians to be returned but the Hindu King of Sindh, Raja Dahir made excuses and supported the criminals.
Notice the pattern, isn't it similar to today where H rapists are garlanded and rallies are taken out in their support by Hs ?
So, finally Arabs invaded Sindh and captured it to free innocent Muslims.
This began the first direct and major Hindu-Muslim conflict.
Indians would send their elephants to serve in Sassanid Persian army and also their men to manage them.
Az-zutts (Hindus from Balochistan) enrolled themselves as mercenaries to fight Arab Caliphate.
The captured Muslim women cried out :— “O Hajjaj, O Hajjaj, hear us, help us.”
When Hajjaj (Umayyad Caliphate governor) heard this, he said in reply to the call of the women :— “Here am I, here am I.”
— Chachnama, a historical account of Arab invasion of India.
So, you know now ? The Muslim invasion aimed at the liberation of the innocents and the weak.
In 2002, Gujarat witnessed a brutal Muslim massacre, large scale Muslim exode and destruction of Muslim property.
However, apart from all this, a large scale #rape of Muslim women was commited by Hindus.
Here are some statements of eyewitnesses.

Harsh Mander in his book — Cry, the Beloved Country: Reflections on the Gujarat massacre — writes :
❝... I have never known a riot which has used the sexual subjugation of women so widely as an instrument of violence as in the recent mass barbarity in Gujarat. There are reports everywhere of gang-rape, of young girls and women, often in the presence of members of their families, followed by their murder by burning alive, or by bludgeoning with a hammer and in one case with a screw driver. Women in the Aman Chowk shelter told appalling stories about how armed men disrobed themselves in front of a group of terrified women to cower them down further ...❞
A resident of Jawan Nagar, Naroda, Ahmedabad told the Citizens’ Initiative that only four out of his eleven family members had survived.
His daughter was raped and burned, succumbing to her injuries in the hospital :
❝... My house has a small grocery store and I was there in the store. A mob came from Charanagar. Five hundred strong mob came from Kubernagar. Two thousand strong mob came. They started riot, burning houses. We ran to nearby Gangotri society and took shelter on the terrace. The mob started burning people at around 5 or 6 o’clock in the evening. The mob stripped all the girls of the locality including my 22-year-old daughter and raped them. My daughter was engaged. Seven members of my family were burnt that includes my wife (age 40), my son (18), my son (14), my son (7), my daughter (4), my daughter (2). Police did not allow me to climb down from the terrace. My 8-year-old son has survived with 20 percent burn injuries and he remembers his mother. What can I do? My house and shop has been burnt…. They hit her on the head and burnt. She had 80 percent burn injuries ...❞
