1. First your claim that there were NO Muslim freedom fighters before 1857 got busted you said except 1857 there were no Muslim freedom fighters.
2. All those who started 1857 freedom fight against the British raj were non other than religious Muslims and that was not for their faith but for the freedom of Subcontinent. The Ulama waged relentless war against the Company rule just after defeat of Sirajud Dawla at Palasi in 1757.
British Army general, Tomson ,The British army general, who fought against Muslims in the uprising of 1857, wrote in his memoir: (Rebellion Clerics P-49): [B]”If to fight for one’s country, plan and mastermind wars against occupying mighty powers are patriotism, then undoubtedly maulvis (read Ulama hanged by the British rulers) were the loyal patriots to their country and their succeeding generations will remember them as heroes.”[/B]
1857 revolt was started by Mangal Pandey.
