Glorification of Sher Shah:
Sher Shah Suri, "The Tiger King", founder of the Suri Dynasty, was born at Narnaul in Punjab in 1486 and died on May 22, 1545 at Kalinjar. His original name was Farid Khan. His father Hasan was a Jagirdar at Sasaram, Bihar . Ill-treated by his stepmother, he left home at an early age. He went to Jaunpur where he set himself to serious study and there he acquired good command over the Arabic and Persian languages. Because of his abilities, he was soon appointed by his father to manage the family Jagir at Sasaram. [1]

Farid Khan exploited this opportunity to accumulate riches by highway robbery and plundering the wealth and riches of the Hindus, taking their women and children as captives and selling them as slaves, following the foot steps of Bakhiyar Khalji, the famoue warlord of Bihar , who lived in early 13th century AD. In one occasion, Farid succeeded to kill a tiger and hence earned the title "Sher (tiger) Khan". The money that Sher Khan accumulated by Criminal means helped him raise a small army and hence to begin his political career. Later on, Sher Khan could consolidate his power by gaining the possession of the Chunar Fort by marrying the widow of Taj Khan Sarang-Khani, the Governer of Ibrahim Lodi.
It may be mentioned here that Chunar is in the Mirzapur District of Uttar Pradesh state, India. Though a small town, Chunar has a great influence in Indian history. The Chunar Fort was built by Maharaja Vikramaditya, the King of Ujjain, in honour of the stay of his brother Raja Bhrithari. As per Hindu records, Chunar is the corrupt of Sanskrit Charanadri as Lord Vishnu had taken his first step here in his Vaman incarnation. The place was also well known as Nainagarh.
However, Sher Khan gained considerable strength after defeating the combined army of Bengal and Hamayun with his own Bihari army and some Pashtun tribes men, in 1537. Then he defeated Humayun at the Battle of Kanauj on May 17, 1540, and ascended the throne of Delhi with the title Sher Shah. His reign barely spanned five years, but the so called secular historians of India , who are not prepared to miss even a single opportunity to glorify the Muslim invaders, portray it as a landmark in the history of the Sub-continent. They project Sher Shah as a rare genius and say that he made many brilliant additions and improvements to the existing system of administration. [2]
They narrate Sher shah as an outstanding military genius, a great civilian administrator and, according to them; he left not even a single area of administrative syatem where he had not set up reforms. But to an unbiased reader, all such narrations appear to be nothing but cock-and-bull stories. According to these spineless slave historians, Sher Shah had revolutionized the revenue syatem which Akbar later on copied. But according another group of historians, Todar Mal, a Rajput minister of Akbar's court, had implemented all such reforms connected to revenue administration, which are now being wrongly attributed to Sher Shah. [2]
Road Building Enterprise of Sher Shah:
The most interesting part of the episode is that, theses spineless historians are projecting Sher Shah as a great builder, particularly a road builder. From their childhood, the students of India are being taught that Sher Shah Suri had built the road which is now known as the Grand Trunk Road ( G.T. Road ). But how far is this correct? Let us read further to find more information on this matter.
During the days of undivided India , the said G.T. Road ran from Sonargaon near Dhaka (now in Bangladesh ) up to the bank of River Indus in Punjab . Historian R.C. Majumdar writes, "Length of the road was 1,500 kos or 3,000 miles (4,800 km)."[3] According to another historian, Shri Atul Chandra Roy, the length of the road was 1,400 miles or less than half of R C Majumdar's figures.[4] Moreover, R.C. Majumdar holds that the champion road-builder, Sher Shah, undertook construction of three more roads and completed them in his lifetime. "One road from Agra towards south up to Burhanpur (600 miles), the second road from Agra via Chittor up to Jodhpur (200 miles) and the third road from Lahore to Multan (100 miles)."[5]
Thus, according to the estimate of R.C. Majumdar, the total length of all the roads built by Sher Shah stands at 3,900 miles or 6,240 km. These historians also say that Sher Shah planted trees on both sides of these roads to provide shades for the travelers and, in addition to that, he set up sarais (inns) at an interval of 2 kos along the roads where the travelers could take rest. In these sarais, Sher Shah provided separate accommodation facilities for the Hindus and the Muslims. He also employed Brahmin and Muslim cooks for preparing the meals of the Hindu and Muslim visitors. The reader should keep in his mind that all these things Sher Shah did within 5 years, despite his hectic military activities.
It has been mentioned above that the history books also tell that Sher Shah ascended the throne of Delhi on May 17, 1540, by defeating Humayun in a battle near Kannauj and in the same year organised a military campaign to suppress the revolt of the Gakkars in Punjab . He moved east, the next year, to suppress a similar revolt in Bengal in March, 1541 AD. The next year, he moved against the Rajput kings in central India and conquered Malwa. The very next year (i.e. in 1543 AD), he organised a campaign against the Hindu king Puran Mal and took control of the fort at Raisin and then moved against the Rajput king of Marwar. In 1544 he subdued the Rathore king, Maldev and in the subsequent year, he died in an accident in 1545 AD, in Kalinjar.
So, the rule of Sher Shah lasted only for five years and out of these five years, he spent nearly one year to gain control over the fort of Kalinjore.[6] During the rest of his reign, he was on hectic movement from east to west and north to south for suppressing revolts or conquering new forts. It should be mentioned here that the period under consideration was a period of political chaos and lawlessness and to restore order, Sher Shah had to fight many battles and that too with partial success. Thus the question naturally arises-Was it possible for Sher Shah (or any other ruler of that time) to build such long roads within such a short span of time? Furthermore, is it possible to make roads, nearly 6,240 Km long, today using modern technology, within a period of 4 or 5 years? The real story is that, Abbas Khan, a court-chronicler of Sher Shah had written some lies to please and glorify his master and our historians took those narrations at their face value, without applying their common sense to estimate the credibility of those blatant lies.
A close scrutiny of events, during the time of Sher Shah, also reveals that, despite his vast efforts, he did not succeed in bringing the vast stretch of land, from Dhaka in Bengal and River Indus in Punjab , under his control. So, how could Sher Shah carry out such a gigantic project like making a road from Bengal to Punjab , when the territory in question was not under his supreme control?
A Muslim chronicler, Sheikh Nurul Haque, most probably honest, who mentioned in his Zubdatut Tawarikh, the road-building endeavour of Sher Shah, and wrote, "Sher Shah made the road which now runs from Delhi to Agra, by cutting trees in jungles, removing obstacles and built serais. Before that time people had to travel through the doab between these two places."[7] This description seems plausible and Sher Shah could have built a road, 300 Km long, within his reign of 4 years. It is important to note that this chronicler did not mention a single word about building a road from Bengal to Punjab by Sher Shah.
However, regarding the road building activities of Sher Shah, Abbas Khan, a court chronicler of Sher Shah, in his Tarikh-i-Sher Shah, writes, "May glory and blessings be upon his eminent dignity! For the convenience in traveling of poor travelers, on every road, at a distance of two kos, he made a sarai (inn); and one road with sarais he made from the fort which he built in the Punjab to the city of Sunargaon , which is situated in the kingdom of Bengal , on the shore of the ocean.. Another road he made from the city of Agra to Burhanpur, which is on the borders of the kingdom of the Dekhin, and he made one from the city of Agra to Jodhpur and Chitor; and one road with sarais from the city of Lahore to Multan . Altogether he built 1700 sarais on various roads; and in every sarai he built separate lodgings , both for Hindus and Musulmans, and at the gate of every sarai he had placed pots full of water, that any one might drink; and in every sarai he settled Brahmans for the entertainment of Hindus, to provide hot and cold water, and beds and food, and grain for their horses; and it was a rule in these sarais, that whoever entered them received provision suitable to his rank, and food and litter for his cattle from Government."[8]
"Villages were established all round the sarais. In the middle of every sarai was a well and a masjid of burnt brick; and he placed an imam and a muezzin in every masjid, together with custodians (shahna), and several watchmen; and all these were maintained from the land near the sarai. In every sarai, two horses were kept, that they might quickly carry news. I have heard that Hussain Tashtdar once, on an emergency, rode 300 kos in one day. On both sides of the highway, Sher Shah planted fruit-bearing trees, such as also gave much shade, that in the hot wind travelers might go along under the trees; and if they should stop by the way, might rest and take repose. If they put up at a sarai, they bound their horses under the trees", Abbas Khan continues.[8]
Sher Shah's Mausoleum at Sasaram
From what has been said above, it becomes evident that Abbas Khan wrote darkest lies in his Tarikh-i-Sher Shah, to please and glorify his master and our historians simply copied those narrations without considering the credibility of those narrations. To any unbiased reader, it would appear utterly impossible for Sher Shah to build such long roads, even if he would have devoted his 5 or 4 years of rein entirely for road building setting his military and political aspects aside. However, it is a shame that the spineless secular historians of India , to glorify the foreign invaders, are believing in these cock and bull stories which, perhaps, even a donkey would refuse to admit.
As a matter of fact, India is a great country and its civilization is oldest in the world. And it is needless to say that such a grand civilization could not have developed and sustained without extensive trade and commerce, and without good roads such large scale trade and commerce could not have been possible.. So, simple common sense tells us that there were networks of good roads in existence throughout the country from very ancient times, centuries before the arrival of the Muslim invaders. One should remember that, in those days, military campaigns among the Hindu kings were very common affair. How could these military campaigns have been possible without good roads? It means that there were good roads, wide enough for chariots drawn by four horses, even in very ancient times. For example, the epic Mahabharata describes how kings from remote corners of this country had assembled at Kurukshetra with their army to participate in the war. Did they come to Kurukshetra through jungles?

Other Credits Attributed to Sher Shah:
According to our historians, Sher Shah was not only a champion road builder but "Sher Shah planted shade-giving trees on both sides of the roads and sarais or rest houses at an interval of 2 kos, where separate arrangements were provided for the Muslims and the Hindus."[9] How could Sher Shah do all these things within a period of about four years? No sane man would believe in this garbage of lies except the secular historians of India .
To glorify Sher Shah, our historians write, "Sher Shah was indeed a striking personality in the history of medieval India ... His military character was marked by a rare combination of caution and enterprise, his political conduct was, on the whole, just and humane; his religious attitude was free from medieval bigotry; and his excellent taste in building is well attested, even today, by his noble mausoleum at Sasaram. He applied his indefatigable industry to the service of the state, and his reforms were well calculated to secure the interests of the people."[10]
What Sher Shah Really was:
But, in reality, Sher Shah was a Muslim Pathan from Afghanistan and like any other Muslim invaders, he was equally treacherous and cruel to the Hindus. His court chronicler, Abbas Khan, in his Tariq-i-Sher Shah, says that in 1543, Sher Shah invaded the kingdom of the Hindu king, Puran Mal, and put his Raisin fort under siege which compelled the Hindu army to surrender. Puran Mal sought a safe passage for his royal family and army. Sher Shah agreed. So Puran Mal and his army came out of the fort and took shelter in a pre-arranged camp provided by Sher Shah, just outside the fort.
In the meantime, the Pathan army started massacring the Hindus and to describe the wholesale slaughter, Abbas Khan writes, "While the Hindus were employed in putting their women and families to death, the Afghans on all sides commenced slaughtering of the Hindus. Puran Mal and his commanders, like pigs at a bay, failed to exhibit valour and gallantry, and within the twinkle of an eye, all were slain. Such of their wives and families, as were not slain, were captured. One daughter of Puran Mal and three sons of his brother were taken alive and the rest were all killed. Sher Shah gave the daughter of Puran Mal to some itinerant minstrels (bazigars) that they might make her dance in the bazaars, and ordered the boys to be castrated, so that the race of the oppressors (i.e. the Hindus) might not increase." [11]
At that time, the Rohtas fort in Bihar was under the control of the Hindu king, Hari Krishna Roy, who was a friend of Sher Shah. In 1537, Humayun launched a military campaign against Sher Shah and proceeded to attack the fortress at Chunar. Sher Shah had 1,000 women in his harem in the said fort at Chunar. Apprehending the fall of Chunar fort, Sher Shah requested Raja Hari Krishna Roy to provide a safe place for his harem in the Rohtas fort. Once upon a time, the Raja had given, in a similar crisis, shelter to Mia Nazim (younger brother of Sher Shah) and hence Sher Shah could request the Raja for a similar benevolence. At first, King Hari Krishna was hesitant.
However, on Sher Shah's promise by touching the Quran, the Raja agreed to give shelter, but could smell a rat. As soon as Raja Hari Krishna agreed, Sher Shah hatched a plan to capture the fort. About 1,200 dolis (palanquins) were made ready overnight and two Afghan soldiers, clad in burqas, occupied each doli. The security staff in the fort checked the first few dolis and failing to detect the conspiracy, allowed the rest to enter the fort. Nearly 2,500 Pathan soldiers succeeded in entering the fort and in the mid-night they started killing the Hindu security guards and thus occupied the fort. King Hari Krishna somehow managed to escape the fort through a secret passage. [12] Our spineless historians describe this incident as exhibit of exemplary military acumen and bravery of Sher Shah. [13]
But Hari Krishna Roy did not know that the Koran instructs the Muslims that they can enter into any agreement with the kafirs and break that agreement in the opportune moment, for the benefit of Islam. Moreover, Allah designates such a treachery with the kafirs as taqiyah or holy deception and attaches merit for such treacherous activities.
This kind of treachery is still going on today and an incident may be cited in this context. When Indian Prime Minister A B Vajpayee and Pakistani Prime Minister Nawaz Sharf were having peace talks at Rawalpindi in 1998, the Pakistani army, at the instigation of Nawaz Sharif, was crossing the Line of Control (LOC) between India and the Pak occupied Kashmir (POK) and occupying the military bunkers on the Indian side at Kargil.
However, our so-called secular historians carefully avoid all these aspects in their versions of history and prefer to follow two fundamental guidelines, as mentioned above, to glorify the Muslim rulers.
How Farid Khan became Sher Shah:
It has been mentioned earlier that the so called secular and Marxist historians distort the Muslim colonial period of Indian history following the guidelines-
1) The period of Muslim rule in India was not a colonial period as the Muslim rulers, though came from outside, stayed back in this country.
2) The said Muslim period of Indian history should be mentioned as a golden period of Indian history, not a colonial period.
3) The ugly face of Islam is to be suppressed and it should be projected as a noble, generous, extremely tolerant and socialistic religion, and religion of universal brotherhood.
4) The Hinduism is to be exposed as a base religion infected with the inhuman institution like casteism and full of despicable superstitions.
5) The foreign Muslim rulers are to be narrated as highly civilized, generous, polished and valorous people and they were far superior to the Hindus in military skill and bravery.
6) During the Muslim rule, the Hindus and Muslims lived in peace as good neighbours and the present enmity and hatred between the two communities was created later on by the British colonialists.
7) It should never be mentioned that the Muslim rulers had massacred the Hindus in hundreds of thousands, demolished thousands Hindu temples or converted them into mosques.
8) It should never be mentioned that the Muslim rulers converted the Hindus at the point of sword. On the contrary, it should be said the low caste Hindus, being oppressed by the high caste Hindus and attracted by the generous and socialistic ideals of Islam, accepted Islam in droves and so on and so forth.
According to the set guidelines as mentioned above, the so called secular historians are projecting Sher Shah as a great ruler, a rare genius free from religious bigotry and by any similar lofty word the might find in the dictionary. They also say that exemplary military skill, keen foresight, extreme diligence and prudence helped Sher Shah rising from humble Farid Khan and ending up ultimately as the Sultan of Hindustan . But the real story is quite different.
In an earlier article, it has been pointed out that Islam has nothing like human resource development program and it has no plan to develop its followers as wealth creators. On the contrary, the Koran inspires the Muslims to acquire wealth by criminal means such as theft, robbery and plunder of the kafirs by waging jihad against them. Most importantly, their Prophet taught his followers this easy means for acquiring wealth by killing and driving away the Jews from Medina and confiscating and distributing their wealth and the riches among the believers. It is needless to say that these teachings of Islam have made its followers, though poor in creative intelligentsia, expert in criminal activities.
As a Muslim, Farid Khan also utilized that celebrated criminal path to accumulate wealth while he was serving his father to manage his jagir. He used to conduct raids on Hindu villages, plunder the wealth and riches of the Hindu subjects of his father's jagir, to become rich. As a procedure, he used to encircle a Hindu village, kill the adult males and sell the women and children as slaves and confiscate their properties. He also used to bring false allegations against the Hindu landlords and occupy their wealth and properties after killing them en masse or driving them out of the jagir.
To narrate such a raid in a Hindu village, Abbas Hasan in his Tarikh-i-Sher Shahi, writes, "His horsemen he directed to patrol around the villages, to kill all men they meet and to make prisoners of the women and children, to drive in cattle to permit no one to cultivate the fields, to destroy the crops already sown and not to permit any one to bring anything in from neighbouring parts." [14]
To describe how Farid Khan attacked and plundered the wealth of the Hindu zamindars, Abbas Hasan, in his Tarikh-i-Sher Shahi, writes, "Early in the morning, Farid Khan mounted and attacked the criminal zamindars, and put all the rebels to death, and making their women and children prisoners, ordered his men to sell them or keep them as slaves and brought other people (i.e. Afghan Muslims) to the village and settled them there." [14]
While commenting on such oppression of the Muslim rulers on the helpless Hindus, H M Elliot writes,"Under sauch rulers, we cannot wonder that the fountains of justice are corrupted; that the state revenues are never collected without violence and outrage; that villages are burnt and their inhabitants mutilated or sold to slavery; that the officials, so far from affording protection, are themselves the chief robbers and usurpers; and that the poor find no redress against the oppressor's wrong and proud man's consumely." [15]
He also writes, "The few glimpses we have of Hindus slain for disputing with the Muhammadans, of prohibitions against processions, worship and ablutions, and of other intolerant measures, of idols mutilated, of temples razed, of forcible conversions and marriages of proscriptions and confiscations, of murders and massacres, and of the sensuality and drunkenness of the tyrants who enjoined them, show us that this picture is no overcharged, and it is much to br regretted that we are left to draw it for ourselves from out of the man of ordinary occurrences, recorded by writers who seem to sympathize with no virtues and to abhor no vices." [16]
But it is a shame that the so called secular historians of India are portraying oppressive and jihadi rulers as extremely kind hearted, generous, tolerant and polished people free of religious bigotry. It is needless to say that, by such false portrayal of those diabolical rulers, they are committing an unpardonable crime.

perhaps these historians
perhaps these historians portray such violent invaders and plunderers as kind hearted rulers so that foolish masses think that these historians are very honest and secular in their writings.
i fail to grasp that if these plunderers were such nice and kind people then why did they wage demolitions of civilizations, why they conquered other peoples land.

JAH, If you are from Iran,
JAH,
If you are from Iran, know that your ancestors were Zorastrians who faught very hard to prevent this Islamic virus. Many males were killed, women raped and many were converted on point of sword.
If you are from pakistan or bangladesh, you should know how great hindu civilization was there. In afghanistan, buddhists and brahmins lived together and made so beautiful art sculpture, temples etc. But the barbaric muslims killed them and destroyed them. Hindus resisted the moslems till the end and thats why hindus were able to keep the faith.
Just remember your DNA is same as other hindus of the sub-continent, your ancestors were raped by foreign muslims. Your ancestor converter to avoid sure death or to pay jazziya, thinking that they will again revert back to there ancestor religion , when the barbaric cult of islam is defanged.
Now is the time to join the age of enlightenment and leave islam. Spit on that mass murderor , rapist mohommed. The intelligent muslims are leaving in droves.

The following ten things are essentially najis:
Urine
Faeces
Semen
Dead body
Blood
Dog
Pig
Kafir
Alcoholic liquors
The sweat of an animal who persistently eats najasat.
...
Kafir
107. * An infidel i.e. a person who does not believe in Allah and His Oneness, is najis. Similarly, Ghulat who believe in any of the holy twelve Imams as God, or that they are incarnations of God, and Khawarij and Nawasib who express enmity towards th e holy Imams, are also najis. And similar is the case of those who deny Prophethood, or any of the necessary laws of Islam, like, namaz and fasting, which are believed by the Muslims as a part of Islam, and which they also know as such.
As regards the people of the Book (i.e. the Jews and the Christians) who do not accept the Prophethood of Prophet Muhammad bin Abdullah (Peace be upon him and his progeny), they are commonly considered najis, but it is not improbable that they are Pak. However, it is better to avoid them.
108. The entire body of a Kafir, including his hair and nails, and all liquid substances of his body, are najis.
109. * If the parents, paternal grandmother and paternal grandfather of a minor child are all kafir, that child is najis, except when he is intelligent enough, and professes Islam. When, even one person from his parents or grandparents is a Muslim, the child is Pak (The details will be explained in rule 217).
110. * A person about whom it is not known whether he is a Muslim or not, and if no signs exist to establish him as a Muslim, he will be considered Pak. But he will not have the privileges of a Muslim, like, he cannot marry a Muslim woman, nor can he be buried in a Muslim cemetery.
111. Any person who abuses any of the twelve holy Imams on account of enmity, is najis.

Mr JAH,
I can understand your plight, frustration. It happens. Let us assume that the SHIA-SUNNI thing is influenced by Hinduism.Consider the following facts(from wikipedia):
JORDAN
“Al-Banna killed 125 Shia and wounding another 150 in the February 28 vehicle bombing of a police recruiting station and adjacent open air market”
SAUDI ARABIA
” Shias have been treated harshly in some countries dominated by Sunnis, especially in Saudi Arabia. Some Sunnis have complained of mistreatment in the Twelver-dominated states of Iraq and Iran.”
IRAQ
“Wahabi suicide bombers continue to attack Iraqi Shia civilians,”
PAKISTAN
“From January to May 1997, Sunni terror groups assassinated 75 Shia community leaders "in a systematic attempt to remove Shias from positions of authority."
“The "Islamization" of General Zia ul-Haq that followed was resisted by Shia who saw it as "Sunnification" as the laws and regulations were based on Sunni fiqh”
MALAYASIA
In a letter purporting to be from the International Islamic University Malaysia, the university is denying employment to a person based on what it claims to be government policy "against employing staff from a particular denomination, Shiite".
Do you think Hinduism has anything to do in these countries?????I think my assumption is wrong because
Hate and intolerance are intrinsic properties of islam.

You reminded me to add sufi-sunni-shia brotherhood facts:
Many attempts were made on Shahi's life(Gohar Shahi ) including a "petrol bomb" attack, thrown into his Manchester residence, and an attack with a "hand grenade" during the discourse at his home in Kotri, Pakistan.

This is indeed a very good
This is indeed a very good and informative article.
I always thought that the fort, temples and other buildings could have been partially destroyed to give them the Islamic Look by refurbishing them. I always believed that Sher shah was the builder of Great roads in India, but after considering the Time period (5 years), his territory (he did not control whole India) and his involvement in so many wars and activities, it is very clear that he was not the one who could have built these long roads in his five year long time. A person who even could not respect his friendship with non Muslim ( King Hari Krishna ), how could he be the one who would have provided meals and rest house for non Muslim travelers in his kingdom.
Indians historians are really the bunch of morons.
JAH, Thanks for all the
JAH,
Thanks for all the verses from Holy Koran which says that Islam gives equal right to the females as it gives to male, how ever I have following question as it is not there in your references:
DOES THE ISLAM ALLOW A FEMALE TO MARRY MORE THAN ONE MALE AS IT ALLOWS A MALE TO MARRY MORE THAN ONE FEMALE?
That would be the real equality between male and female.
@KAFIR123, It has happened
@KAFIR123,
It has happened with a women India, her name was Draupdi(she had 5 husbands)
Dr, Interesting article as
Dr,
Interesting article as always! too bad it won't make it to the history books:(...
@ Jah: Try to give an honest answer....has Islam had any kind of reform/criticism in recent years? Is criticism allowed within Islam?
Please give your own answer instead of quoting from other websites!

Here's my add-on:
Does Islam allow women to beat their husbands as husbands are allowed to beat their wives?
Does Islam allow women to say I divorce you three times as husbands are allowed to do so?
Does Islam allow women to marry 6 year old boys as men are allowed to marry 6 year old girls?
Does Islam allow women to sleep with their son in-law as Islam allows men to sleep with their daughter in-law?
Does Islam prohibit men from leaving the house as women are prohibited from leaving the house?
Does Islam allow women to walk ten feet ahead of their husbands as men are allowed to walk ten feet ahead of their wives?
Does Islam allow women to put leashes on their husbands as men are allowed to put leashes around their wives?
Does Islam allow women to force their husbands to have sex as Islam allow's men to force their wives to have sex?
Does Islam force men to cover themselves from head to toe as women are forced to cover themselves from head to toe.
Does Islam prohibit men from going to universities and getting jobs as women are prohibited from going to universities and getting jobs?
Does Islam allow women to preach in the mosque as men are allowed to preach in mosque.
honesty and islam are two
honesty and islam are two banks of river and never can the two meet.

Muslims like JAH (Jahilya Allahu Haq) even after visiting such good websites and showing the enlightenment that Islam is a crime against humanity is still barking like a dog.
In India Muslim % increased from 9 % (1947) to almost 17 %.
In pakistan hindu population decreased from 27 % in 1947 to 1.8 % now.
In bangladesh hindu population decreased from 30 % in 1947 to 10 % now.

20@JAH I take your answer as
20@JAH
I take your answer as ‘NO, Because of some reasons woman can not have more than one husband and thus do not have equal right in this regard. However this is the religion or rules or constitution of the area / country /society, which makes one to think in logical, rational or social way. I do not see any scientific problem with this.
I don’t see any problem with Polyandry as long as religion or social rules does not come on the way. However in a society, normally there is no doubt about the mother of new born child but there is always a belief that father of the child should be either her husband or boyfriend.
I think Polygamy and Polyandry were followed in the ancient Indian culture, but they do not follow both the Practices any more as they have realized that those were wrong things, I think this is a good decision by Indians, do not you think so?
You are saying that according to Islam Muslim is allowed to marry more than one wife if he marries widows and orphans? Are you saying that the Arabs (True Muslims living under Islamic rule) are only marrying one virgin and others are widows or orphans?
I do not see any problem in the following statement, do you?
“having more than one husband should be a burden on woman from any point of view. Keeping multiple husbands is not for fun either. Rather it is to help orphans and widower.”
Don not brings any religion or society in this statement and than think and justify it!
Marie has wrote many things about Islam. I do not know if those things are right and still going on.
What do you think about marriage I mean “Is this the union of two people to share their good time, bad time and give each other support in day to day activities” or this is just to have SEX ( like prostitution)?
You wrote so many informative things about woman status in Bible, I do not know if those practice are still being followed by Christian in western world?
What is your point, you want Christians to follow those bad practices or you do not like it because they do not follow those things any more and eventually developed a good and prosperous society.

Hindus in West Bengal under Attacks by Muslim
By Ranjit Roy

Hindus in West Bengal are now under attack from Muslim fundamentalists, who are mostly Bangladeshi infiltrators, with an active support from the ruling CPM. The communists in the state are desperate to woo Muslims after their humiliating defeat in the recent panchayat and civic body elections. The communists believe that due to the state government’s agricultural land grab policy for industry has alienated rural Muslims from the party and responsible for poll debacles. The party and its government are now liberally distributing favours to Muslims in the state such as setting up of Muslim religious university, named Alia University, in Kolkata’s Muslim populated area Park Circus. The chief minister, Buddhadeb Bhattacharjee, has offered his government’s financial assistance only to Muslim students seeking higher education. Mamata Banerjee’s Trinamul Congress is not lagging behind in Muslim appeasements. She has announced that gram panchayats and panchyat samities won by her party in South 24 Parganas district will be run by local Muslims only.
Emboldened by the appeasement policy of the ruling party as well as the main Opposition party in the state, a section of Muslim fundamentalist outfits are gearing up an unprecedented attacks on Hindus in South Bengal districts. The first major attack was reported in Gangasagar, the holy confluence of the river Ganga and Bay of Bengal, on June 12 this year. About 200 Hindu pilgrims were assembled there for a holy dip at the confluence and listen to discourses on Hindu religious texts by leaders of Hindu Samhati Mancha. The peaceful Hindu assembly was attacked by a frenzied 3000-strong Muslim mob led by a local CPM leader Sheikh Ismail. Like infamous Godhra train burning incident in Gujarat, the heavily armed Muslim goons set fire to bamboo pavilion erected for the pilgrims assembled in the evening to listen to religious discourses. The goons also set fire to Viswa Hindu Parishad’s guest house where some pilgrims had taken shelter. The VHP guest house was badly damaged due to fire and ransacking. Strangely, the police remained onlookers during the murderous attack on Hindu pilgrims and later arrested only the leaders of Hindu Samhati Mancha and a few injured pilgrims. It is really a shame for Bengal’s media that suppressed the incident to appease the ruling CPM and its Muslim stooges. It was only the Bengali weekly Swastika that came out with detail reorts and pictures. The West Bengal unit of the VHP had also organized demonstration in protest. It may not be known to many outside West Bengal that the sacred Gangasagar Island is now dominated by Muslim majority population migrated from Bangladesh illegally thanks to the CPM’s policy of Muslim appeasement only to get their votes.

Swami Punyalokananda tied to a tree and
severely beaten. (Pic Courtesy NDTV)
The second major attack on Hindus was reported on July 8 when Swami Punyalokanandaji, a monk of Ramakrishna Order and Adhyaksha of the Ramakrishna Ashram at Gorehat under Joynagar police station in South 24 Parganas was stripped and beaten up by CPM goons. Revered Swamiji is a Hindu social reformer who was initiated in sannyas by Swami Gambhiranandaji Maharaj, the 11th President of Ramakrishna Math and Mission, Belur, Howrah. Swami Punnyalokanandaji is devoted for the upliftment of the poor and underprivileged people at Gorehat since he has taken over as the head of the ashram. Swamiji was trying hard to start a free coaching centre for the primary school boys and homeopathic dispensary in the ashram campus. But Mohammed Abdur Ali, a local CPM leader and his associates have planned to set up a country liquor shop in the ashram campus capturing the ashram room for coaching students and the dispensary just by flexing their muscle power. The local Muslim goons, led by the CPM leader Abdur Ali, attacked Swamiji with iron rods and lathis and tied him with a tree before stripping him off his saffron robes and beat him mercilessly till he became senseless. This ghastly scene was witnessed by hundreds of local people as the attack was made by the Muslim goons in the morning. But none came forward to save Swamiji fearing reprisal from the local Muslim goons sheltered by the CPM bosses. The police came to the spot only after the Muslim fanatics had satisfied themselves by blood-shed of a peaceful Hindu monk. Strangely, again, the police did not arrest a single culprit so far except registering a general diary (No. 168/08) about the attack on Swamiji at the Joynagar police station. Swamiji had many injuries in his body including scull. Some devotees of Swamiji took him to Kolkata’s SSKM government hospital for C.T Scan of brain and necessary treatment. Swamiji is now out of danger. Swamiji had earlier met the district magistrate and the district superintendent of police apprehending murderous attacks on him and on the ashram and requested them in writing for protection. But they did not take steps to protect the Hindu monk mainly due to fearing backlash of the Muslim fundamentalist groups and red eyes of the ruling communists. The two successive barbaric incidents and complete police inaction led to a panic among peace-loving Hindus all over West Bengal. The incidents have clearly showed that the CPM has adopted a tactic of torture against Hindus only to win the hearts of the Muslims to regain their support in the Lok Sabha elections.

Wonderful article. India was
Wonderful article.
India was the most prosperous country in the world before Islamic invasion. All the Islamic invaders looted India and massacred people. Even Arabic and Persian historian have recorded the carnage these barbarians had emanated. Islamic reign was the darkest period of India's history. People were converted to Islam by the sword. Lot of Muslims in India counter this by saying that if Islam was spread by sword, then all the people would have been converted to Islam. The reason majority of people still remained Hindus is due to the fact that Islamic invaders had ruled only parts of India and not all of India. They were constantly attacked by Rajputs, Marathas and Sikhs which consumed their time and resources.
Secondly, lot of people took dhimmi status and paid higher taxes to keep Hinduism. Mogul rule, the golden period of Islam in India, was supported by most powerful Rajput kings of that time. Therefore, Moguls could not take direct stand of converting people by force which would create rift between Moguls and their Rajput allies.
People of India have given great price to preserve their culture and continue to do so. The psudo seculars who suppress truth and spread lies in the name of Hindu/Muslim harmony, have forgotten how their ancestors were massacred, looted and raped. They don't understand that there is no secular Islam in theory or in practice. Secularism is Islam's deceptive need when cornered and overpowered.
Those who ignore history are condemned to repeat it.
That's history. There is nothing to be gained by getting paranoic over past events and atrocities. A truely meaningful purpose could be served if you formulate some concrete lessons and action-plans for taday's situations. History is a "fait(h)-accompli". What can you do about it? You cannot undo it.
Whether you believe in it or not, Darwins theory of evolution, is at work. The fittest WILL survive. This applies not only to organisms, but also to social and sociological systems and "memes". The weaker creeds and systems of thought, will be wiped out over historical spans of time. Richard dawkins' analysis in his epoch-making book - "The Selfish Gene" - shows that cawardice also has survival value, but cowards survive as numerically (demographically) dominant section of the community but only as slaves to the hegemonically dominant but numerically small section of the society.
If you do a detached analysis, you will come to the conclusion that hitorical evolutionary forces are at work and every group or section of the human community gets its "just desserts" over a hitorically significant period of time.

Mr JAH,
did you read comment #15. again, could you please explain that.
@ JAH: You're missing the
@ JAH: You're missing the point here! All religions have been narrow minded/intolerant...But some of them have realized that and have tried to reform and are also reforming slowly...
You've quoted from the Bible saying that it is "against women". You're correct! I could say the same thing about some Hindu scriptures...But how many people actually follow these scriptures literally?
A woman in India or America or other countries at least has the opportunity to become the president/ prime minister or something similar.
Could you say the same about Islamic countries or even Islamic women in non-Islamic countries? What kind of freedom are they given?
You've also said: "Islam has been attacked and criticized since its inception MUCH MORE than any other religion in the world."
Then could you please explain why there was so much fuss when the Prophet Mohammed cartoons were published? Isn't that criticism? or why was Salman Rushdie threatened with a Fatwa when he wrote the "Satanic Verses"?
Compare this with the kind of criticism Hinduism and Christianity has faced.
Please answer this without any quotations from other sites!

I am dumbstruck as to how can an entire article be hijacked by a single troll. I wonder if the number of trolls multiply, what would be the condition of FFI.
Guys please stop resonding to these trolls.
I would also request the moderators to differentiate between trolling and the freedom of speech. There is nothing called an absolute Freedom of Speech.
Sometimes, you do need to use the panic button and delete comments which no relevance to the topic. If the Moderators keep on sitting and doing nothing FFI is going to hijacked just like the Free countries are getting hijacked.

by the way, it's a good article. i used to think that the islamic invaders of India did bring with them civilization and brotherhood but the real case was not so. i mean even if they did construct those magnificient building that eye-catching to us, it is not something to be proud of if that was done at the expense of many lives. my mughal ancestors really have to answer for their atrocities towards the peaceful hindu of india.

Great article. This reminds me what I learned in history class long ago. In exams students were asked to write essays on any one or two of them: Akbar the Great, Sher Shah, Shah Jahan or Arangazeb. I used to write the same thing elaborately about any one of them above. He made roads, ponds, culverts, etc. conquered other kings, territories, made peace, etc.
As on this subject, about Islam too I knew only what I learned in schools. Now with the arrival of internet, everything has changed upside down; Lo! Allahu Akbar!

No he was not a good man kenmirzz, he was as much of a bigot as any other Mughal who ruled over India. But yes, we has a very tactful person and used tact to gain over people rather than merely brute force.
I think you should get in touch with Dr. Achari, he would be able to guide you better with regards to Akbar.
