Mauryas were from the Indian heartland. Their guru Chanakya, was most probably from Pakistan. That's our history. Compare that to the Mughals who were Uzbeks. They're not related to us in any way. The Hindu faith wasn't threatened, not because of their largesse but rather because they needed people's goodwill to rule and defend against the next guy who showed up. They weren't really that dedicated to their religion. If you remember Akbar actually started his own religion. It's only today's Pakistanis that obsess about them being Muslim. The first Mughal emperor who decided to push the faith issue, Aurangzeb, faced revolts from the Sikhs and the Marathas and ended up crippling the Mughal empire and starting its downward spiral.
lol, dont post crap. The point is that no matter ruled our Muslim empire was infact a Muslim and kept her going with tremendous power. The development that this region saw under us was exemplary and had never reached to that level.
People come and go regardless of their way of implementing things like u said. But broadly the point was that they were after all Muslims ruling our empire.
Emperor Akbar did tried to gain support from other non muslim tribes like the rajputs etc thats why he married or whatever with that Rajput woman Jodha and then tried to make Deen a Elahi (system of All Mighty) etc. Yes he was wrong and thats why he reverted back during his last 10 years of life. Have u ever heard of Shah Wali Ullah or Mujadid Alif Sahni? Mujadid Alif Sahni was the man behind his change of heart. But these are again going into cherry picking small things. Every individual like i said has his own way of thinking and back then there used to be monarchy so one man one order system used to be more prominent. Chanakya or whatever but back in those days there was no united india as well like it was under muslim empire specifically Akbar's time.
And plz dont give me that crap abt marathas. Those were the opportunist scavengers that just had the lust for power and fought for ethnicity not for Emperor Aurangzeb's policies. The loot and massacres that they did against their own today's indian brethren r legendary. And above all do u even know that the general of Mughal Army of Emperor Aurangzeb that fought against them in retaliating itself had the Maratha Commander in Chief?
Ever heard why didnt they attacked the british rather then attacking their own countrymen? Because they had a treaty with British. Even they also became enlightened with passage of time and realized their mistake. Case closed.
So dont try to pervert the history. There were other reasons for those marathas and others revolt. It was certainly no religious reasons. Emperor Aurangzeb was the best thing to happen for the empire and its people. Back in his days gold used to be placed in the streets like today's fallen leafs from the trees are there in the road sides. Such was the prosperity under his rule and there was absolutely ZERO crime rate. The prosperity under him was legendary, the empire was contributing 23% of the global economy in that time.
Regarding the bolded part, yeah right take solace on this. But in reality if we wished we could have done it. And even if one king or dynasty didnt done it others would have but its our islam which strictly prohibits that. So no matter who comes personally whatever he could be (he might have a million women in his haram or he could be the greater sherabi ever) but when it comes to the law of the common and for the common he was bound by higher powers of All Mighty under his faith.
Heck do u even know the first Army to come in South Asia was invited here from Persian Empire against Raja Dahir of Sindhi? They didnt come in their own. It was Muslim Army under the legendary commander Mohammad Bin Qasim who was just 17 years old and only stayed in sindh for 4 years and left?
