What's new

Muhammad Bin Qasim

OMG you are really grasping at straws here ! why don't you just go a step further claim prophet Muhammed (PBUH) as the first Pakistani ? There wouldn't have been Islam or Ummayad caliphate and therefore ultimately no Pakistan without him either.
Bin Qasim was not nor any of his ancestors born within the land mass that is now Pakistan, nobody in history ever referred to him as Pakistani and nor did he invade with the Idea to spread Islam and establish a future homeland for Muslims on the Indian sub-continent nor he invented the two-nation theory .
He only conquered Sindh and small part of Punjab but the population of what is now modern day Pakistan at the time of his victory was still Majority Hindu/Buddhist. Islam spread over time from Sufis as well as many further invasions from other Muslim empires over a long period of time.
If that is the case why not give up Pakistan's claim to IVC how can IVC be pakistani when Bin Qasim was the first Pakistani yet he came thousands of years after it ? Sorry You can't have both.
Imagine if some Israeli members claimed Lord Balfour as the "first Israeli" you guys would be tearing into them :lol:

We are Muslim because of Muhammad Bin Qasim's conquests,
No bro thats not true..You are Muslim today because of the series of conquests lead int he early days of Islam by the first four caliphs..
And the map you are referring to was how the region looked like around the end of his reign..The area up to Indus was already conquested when he stepped in..
You really need to revisit history and not see it through the lens of our mashrati uloom books.

I'm Muslim because of the Sahabah (May Allah Be Pleased With Them) as well as the Prophets (Peace Be Upon Them), but I am also Muslim because of mujahids like Muhammad Bin Qasim.

Most of the territory in that map was conquered by Qasim.

You are correct about religious impact no doubt
But as far as , to he was the main reason for formation of Pakistan is not correct

The role of Ummayad Dynasty is not really covered in Pakistani schools. If Mohammad Bin Qasim is such a prominent figure we should then also learn about Ummayad Dynasty and rules and regulation in that timewhich they used

Mohammad Bin Qasim may have introduced islam or preachers in region but the influenced wanned over time.

By 1857, it was really a group of Educated people who changed fortunes for Muslims in region to get a country we now know as Pakistan


People like Sir Syed , or other educated people were the main reason why we have Pakistan today

It also states that upon discovering the trick after the death of Muhammad bin Qasim, the Khalifa deeply repented his action and ordered the sisters buried alive in a wall as a punishment.

I have found this action very silly. So they did trick him. So what? He could have simply enjoyed them (as he did the rest of his concubinage)- chunwaoing them alive seems to be a needless waste of beauty and talent.

As far as Tariq bin Zaid is considered, I am sure had Spain been a Muslim nation today- Andalustan- he would have been revered as the first Andalustani.

That story of the two sisters isn't factual.

Certainly a great general of his time at young age

However even greater generals were produced by Turkey too :-)

Too many to list instead of teaching about them our school teaches us about drunk guy
Mirza Ghalib poetry :laugh:

Asalamu Alaikum

Muhammad Bin Qasim was the first Muslim to conquer large portions of the Indian sub-continent. The previous Muslim rulers had only made minor incursions.



No, because Spain doesn't owe it's existence to Tariq Ibn Ziyad.

When he entered Pakistan, he spent almost the rest of his life there. He only left once his uncle was executed, and he was then arrested and executed too.

Those languages didn't really exist at the time, and that comment is simply childish.
Dont make up stuffs. He died young so just spent few years in here just like others ..yes Pakistani languages did not existed because Pakistan did not existed . Pakistani passport or map of Pakistan did not existed in era of Muhammad bin Qaisim yet you are making him Pakistani which is childish. Bangladesh was also part of Pakistan in 1947 so he should be first Bangladeshi as well. Arabs will laugh if you ever tell them that he was first Pakistani. We only associate with Qasim because of sharing same religion Islam but that would not make him native of this land .

Mohammd Bin Qasim was a mere man , one of Thousand and Thousand of great Generals who existed and produced by various Muslim countries

But Pakistan only came into Physical reality in 1947
East Pakistan / West Pakistan

Our only true connection is with Makkah and Medina , the General who lived and served are too many to state and every generation have a handful

I don't think Pakistan at National level has ever done a proper chronology of all the Muslim Generals since Prophets time. To give some coevrage of their reign and domain

I only learned about some of Great Turkish Leaders by self study online out of curiosity to find out what was it that made their Leadership so different

History is not one of the most prominent topics which is covered in Pakistan, every one is given Mira Ghalib poetry to read and enjoy instead of learning about real history

Sindh was, as was southern Punjab.

Some of the already conquered areas also had further military campaigns by Qasim that quelled resistance in the areas.



The deranged liberal coconut.
So you mean sindh and southern punjab is all what Pakistan is all about?
