What is the difference between Muslim invaders and Israel? Both are doing same. West Bank has become one of the most developed places in Israel rule. However we choose to glorify Islamic invasion saying it was economically good for Indian sub continent but at the same time condemn Israel. If only hypocrisy has a face few would be seeing theirs when staring at mirror.

According to Pakistan, Kashmir is under illegal Indian occupation. Replace Israel with India, your statement still remains true. India has spent millions for development in Kashmir.
 
Before we answer this question, we need to ask ourselves... What is the biggest effect and result of Islamic rule on the Indian subcontinent?

The monuments?

Architecture?

The languages?

Innovations?


No. It's Islam, the religion itself. It's the 600 million or more adherents of it that are currently living in this religion.

220 Million of them are Pakistanis, whose nation has to rely regularly on IMF bailouts to even survive and has become a banana republic with comical socioeconomic conditions.

180 Million are Bangladeshis, whose nation has a multidimensional poverty of more than a staggering 40%.

200 Million are the Indian Muslims, who are the the worst performing religious group in the country in each and every socioeconomic parameter than even the Dalits.


In conclusion... if you're a newly born baby in a South Asian Muslim household, the probability of you ending up living a low quality life is much much higher than if you were to be born in a non-Muslim household.


And therein lies the uncomfortable answer. The above lines might be depressing for some but they are nothing but cold hard true facts.

Well it might be true in India because there's a resurgence of hinduvta and hence Muslim marginalization.

The quality of life in Pakistan though is even better than some Western nations

Lol as expected...got emotional without reading it clearly.

I said 'Multidimensional poverty'. I'm pretty sure you have zero idea about it , just like on so many different topics..

Multidimensional Poverty in the Voluntary National Reviews | MPPN

Multidimensional Poverty in the Voluntary National Reviews
www.mppn.org www.mppn.org

Bangladesh has constructed Multidimensional Poverty Index (MPI) to measure the deprivation of the population in three dimensions, viz. health, education, and living standard. Information from Table 1.5 reveals that the incidence of multidimensional poverty in Bangladesh is 37.5 per cent.

Let me put it this way, India has absolutely nothing to thank Mughals for. They were invaders, tryants, bigots and looters who invaded land, converted millions and make an entire country marginalized. This is the same thing that Israel is doing now or something you accuse Indians doing in Kashmir.

You dont need good percentage marks to see the hypicrisy here. Even a blind nun can see it.

During those days, conquests were common. Many conquests happened throughout the world (including Europe). If you compare world orders from middle ages to current period, that's illogical.

Please learn how Israel started (starting from Balfour declaration). They pretty much took over lands over native Palestinians; not just Muslims but also non-Muslim Palestinians. Even to this day, they are forcefully taking over lands in West Bank (illegal settlements).

Ah so that old excuse of 'those days'. Just bcoz conquests were common on those days we should not call them invaders? Also, why are we glorifying them today?

I am thoroughly aware of Israel's history and Mughals/Islamic rulers were 10 times worst. Atleast in present day lots of aids going into Gaza, protests against genocide happening world wide etc. There were no protests when Alauddin Khilji or Taimur raping and killing millions of people.

Anyway glorify Islamist tyrants of the past should be ashamed of themselves.

Similarly Israel is spending all on the land they are living. They have made the West Bank one of the developed place in middle east. However the point is that land doesn't belong to Israel just like India didnt belong to Mughals. Why you hung into my education? LOL..you don't need to be educated to see the hypocrisy.

Talk about hitting a nerve, this thread had barely been posted yesterday, I come back today and it is over 100 replies. There are surely some nerves getting tingled and tangled by the subject of Mughal rule in India. :unsure:
 
Another thing I want to mention is Mughal and Israel don't have the same equivalence.

Israel literally kicked out/displaced Palestinians from their lands. They are still doing it illegally in West Bank (illegal settlements which violate international laws).

Mughals simply ruled. They didn't kick Indians out of Indian lands. Palestinians lost most of their lands.

Also, time period matters. During those days, conquests were quite common. Many European empires used to conquer each other. It was like that all over the world.

You obviously won't accept that because it's not part of your agenda

They mass converted millions of people, destroyed their temples and forced their way in. Also, it is not about Mughals but other Islamic invaders/Delhi Sultanate's too.

You are still supporting them bcoz they happen to be from the same religion as yours and quick to criticize Israel for doing the same with 10 times the lesser extent.

Agree time period matters and that is why you will never see anyone glorifying British Raj or Black slaves. However it is shocking to see you guys are applauding the Islamic rulers of yesteryears in 2024 while protesting against Israel in the streets of London every saturday.

No innovation alone can't be a main criteria. How come it alone could answer the need of the masses. A society plagued with injustice but advance in innovation does not stand anywhere.

If we go by that criteria then the terrorist and apartheid states like US and Israel stand out among others but in actual thats not the case.

For your convenience, make the justice in a society the supreme criterion for people welfare.
 
Another thing, which Indian poster here has a problem with Pakistanis and Bangladeshis glorifying those invaders in their respective countries? I certainly don't. Heck, Pakistan has named almost all of their nukes and missiles after those invaders. I'm the last person bothered, it's none of our business.

But if those Pakistanis and Bangladeshis expect us Indians to follow suit, it's not going to happen. No country glorifies looting and tyrannical invaders from the past who invaded their country. We are no exception. For us they were subhuman, and are not worth remembering in positive light at all.

Although I still do think innovation is a good thing but not the main criterion but for your reference have extracted an excerpt from following source:

"According to Angus Maddison, between the years 1000 and 1500, India's GDP, of which the sultanates represented a significant part, grew by nearly 80%, to $60.5 billion; in comparison, there was lower than the GDP growth in India during the prior 1,000 years.[16] but According to Maddison's estimates, India's population also grew by nearly 50% in the same time period.[17] The Delhi Sultanate period coincided with a greater use of mechanical technology in the Indian subcontinent. While India previously already had sophisticated agriculture, food crops, textiles, medicine, minerals, and metals, it was not as sophisticated as the Islamic world or China in terms of mechanical technology"

Trying to act ignorant now, are we?

Mughals and other Islamic rulers were barbaric invaders who took the land by force, converted millions of people, destroyed their places of worship. I just gave an example of Alauddin Khilji when he painted the streets of Delhi red with bloods. Go and read what Taimur used to do with women and how many jumped into open fire to save their dignity.

However, you will still glorify them because they were muslims and aparently they created some monuments etc. Let me put it this way, if ISIS was existed 500 years ago, some of you would glorify them too. Infact Islamic Invaders back in the day were 500 times more barbaric than ISIS terrorists.

You are the one who is acting ignorant by thinking Mughal and Israel did the same thing.

Israel = Kicked out Palestinians from their homes in modern period.
Mughals = Ruled India (didn't kick out Indians from their homes) during middle ages.

If you can't understand this, no point in debating.

By your definition, probably 90% empires would be invaders during middle ages (they all conquered each other). Conquests were common then.

Have you read Akbar's seige of Chittorgarh? Abul Fazl himself mentioned about what happened and what Akbar ordered after his mission was accomplished. Here's from Wikipedia -

"After capturing the fort on 23 February 1568, Akbar ordered a general massacre of Chittor's population in which 30,000 Hindu civilians inside the fort who were largely non-combatants were slaughtered. After the mass slaughter, many women and children were enslaved followed by desecration of many Hindu and Jain temples on Akbar's order."

Anyone who wants authenticity can read Akbarnama written by Akbar's own courtyard Abul Fazal.

Has Israel done even remotely close to anything as barbaric as this?
 
Muslims of the subcontinent are free to praise and glorify the Islamic invaders of the past. No one's going to denigrate them if they do that.

But just don't expect the non-Muslims too to sing the same tune. You'll end up getting disappointed when we show the reality which will lead to logic-less emotional outbursts like we saw on this thread.

Only butchered them, converted them (us) by force, destroyed their places of worship and brutally taxed them for their religion. Apart from that , they were saints sent by God.. "


As I said earlier, room temperature IQ stuff.

And this is the Akbar whom seculars honoured with the title 'Great'.

Exactly, that is your agenda. Your argument is agenda driven not based on logic. Again you didn't play spot the difference and thought no one will point out the difference to you

Highlighting the hypocrisy may sound an agenda to you but that is how discussions happen. If you can't praise historical wrongs just bcoz they are of the same faith as yours but at the same time will condemn Israel. It did hit the nerve of you, @sweep_shot and @Cpt. Rishwat though. The expectation of this thread creator was everyone will come here and praise Islamic invaders just bcoz they build some monuments etc but clearly that plan failed spectacularly when I brought in Israel into the debate. There is a proverb in hindi - "Dhan aur Dharti bat kar rahega...but apna apna chor ke". It is apt for this discussion.

Well the bar was set so low by the other tyrants that Akbar (who himself was a tyrant but relatively less degree) was made to look like a monk.

You are the one who is acting ignorant by thinking Mughal and Israel did the same thing.

Israel = Kicked out Palestinians from their homes in modern period.
Mughals = Ruled India (didn't kick out Indians from their homes) during middle ages.

If you can't understand this, no point in debating.

By your definition, probably 90% empires would be invaders during middle ages (they all conquered each other). Conquests were common then.

How many times I have tell you that I agree conquests were common then. But why are we praising them now? There is documented facts that Islamic invaders were Barbaric who forced their way in, raped and plundered millions, destroyed temple etc. Your arguement is, conquests were common then. Agreed. But why are we glorifying them now? We should be condemning them equivocally unless a person is A grade hypocrite which I know you aren't. So try again probably.
 
Nadir shah looted 70 crores

Bhuktiyar khilji massacred Buddhists,destroyed nalanda unversity(one of the oldest in the world)
Allauddin khilji destroyed Halebedu temples
Unesco Heritage Hampi destroyed by Deccan sultanates

Am not even starting somnath temple,kasi,Mathoura,ayaodhya etc.

So at the end irrespective of the religion,who ever did it for the religion were nothing but jingoistic and lunatic invaders
 
Why were the intellectual achievements during the Muslim rule era so low compared to before ? No one is answering that.

It has been answered. Some has stated that innovation or intellectual achievements are not important.

What's funny Is that Kerala school of mathematics build upon Arab Islamic mathematics and their connection was through trade. But the Islamic rulers didn't felicitate such things.

With years of negligence in science and education, entire subcontinent was ripe for British to loot .As historians suggested people did not even bothered who the ruler is ( either mughal /british) after years of negligence .Darylmpre explained in last mughal book that delhi was so anarchic that commoners must have felt relief after British invasion.

During those days, conquests were common. Many conquests happened throughout the world (including Europe). If you compare world orders from middle ages to current period, that's illogical.

Please learn how Israel started (starting from Balfour declaration). They pretty much took over lands over native Palestinians; not just Muslims but also non-Muslim Palestinians. Even to this day, they are forcefully taking over lands in West Bank (illegal settlements).
