@Rustum_0

I mostly share history, art, culture, food, attire, traditions, and heritage of the Indian Muslim community. Sometimes I delve into politics & current affairs.

You think the Hindu Nairs didn't try to eliminate the Moplah (Kerala Malabari) Muslims? An unknown event in Nawab Hyder Ali's life was when the Nairs massacred Moplahs, who then pleaded the Nawab for rescue. MUST READ & SHARE how the Nawab responded, as recorded by a German:

Fed up of the Rajput dominance under Medini Rai at his court, administration and personal affairs, Sultan Mahmud of Malwa escaped to the Muzaffarid sultanate. He asked Sultan Muzaffar to rescue him, who accepted and marched against the Rajput coalition led by Medini Rai, Rana Sanga, Rai Raiyan, Silahdi Tomar. Sultan Muzaffar personally besieged the Rajputs assembled within the grand fort of Shadiabad, while dispatching Azam Humayun, Imad-ul-Mulk, Fath Khan, and Qiwam-ul-Mulk to intercept Rana Sanga, who was marching to relieve the siege. Shadiabad fell, and the Rajput garrison and civilians were both slaughtered without quarter. Realising the march was futile, Rana Sanga retreated to Chittor.

Provincial capital of the Khandesh Subah and a vital strategic link between the Deccan and Hindustan. Intentionally developed under the care of Imperial dynasty as worthy of hosting the Imperial host and household while travelling. Even today, you will find the city filled with the ruins of its imperial infrastructure (personal household, not referring to civil)

Shivaji attacked many places, but never Aurangabad or Burhanpur. When asked the reason, he replied: “If we attack these places, the honour of Aurangzeb will be wounded, and he will march here himself. Then, God knows how the strife will end!”

@ShandilyaRjapu1 A widespread grassroots self identification within the pagans with the term Hindu. In the same way, even the most illiterate or religiously unlearned Muslim would still identify himself as a Muslim or Musalman.

@Rustum_0 You're one who's confused and going round and round. And wdu mean by "internal consensus"? Do you expect a declaration signed by 10 million Hindus or 10k Hindu high priests from medieval India?

@ShandilyaRjapu1 Don't go round and round, can you show an internal consensus in the Pagan Indians that they are Hindus before 18th century?

@Rustum_0 Lol that's not fringe. The fact that you don't know anything about Gaudiya Vaishnavism doesn't make it "fringe". And obviously, ordinary people would only be aware of the complexities of their own sects, not other sects. That's basic common sense, it doesn't prove anything.

Employment of certain terms by the fringe men of literarure is not an evidence that they constituted a community's primary identity. A primary identity emerges only when there is overwhelming consensus within that community. In the "Hindu" case, that consensus did not develop until the 18th century. You are mistaken. Similarly, Turkish nationalists scour historical sources for traces of the term "Turk" (say, Göktürk) to argue that a distinct Turkish identity existed since ancient times.
Devavrata@ShandilyaRjapu1

In 15th century, Chaitanya Mahaprabhu specifically used "Hindu" is a religious sense, arguing that Hindus follow Vedas and don't kill cows Vidyapati in the same period also uses Hindu & Turk (Muslim) in a religious sense. Raso literature also does this Hence, you're wrong!

Urdu is an Indian Muslim language, not merely an Indian one. This "Urdu has no religious nature" slop would make sense if Hindus hadn't overwhelmingly hated it & inflicted every possible harm on it. Why shy away from calling it a Muslim tongue when foreigners themselves didn't?

Respected @Gulzar__sahab, your words gave hope to millions: “Urdu is an inherently Indian language. I’m not worried about its future.” “Zindagi kya hai anasir mein zahoor-e-tarteeb, Maut kya hai inhi ajza ka pareshan hona.” ~ Brij Narayan Chakbast “Ghalat hai jo samajhta hai ise aghyār ki boli, Yeh hai ikhlās ki tarz-e-takallum, pyār ki boli.” ~Jagannath Azad “Lab-e-mādar ne Mulla jis mein loriyān sunāī thīn, Woh din āyā hai jab usko bhī ghairon kī zabān samjho.” ~Anand Narayan Mulla 1 more famous couplets by Anand Narayan Mulla “Urdu zabān ghair hai ye shauq se kahe, Mulla se lekin aa ke nigāhein milāye to.” But the ground reality in #Telangana is painful. Urdu is being sidelined, its teaching is treated like a crime, and Urdu teachers are being assaulted by those who falsely label it as only a Muslim language. Urdu belongs to India, not to one religion. Silence today will mean extinction tomorrow. Please raise your voice for #SaveUrdu.

This German account omits an important detail where after taking refuge in a Dutch fort, the Mappila Muslims sent a letter to Nawab Hyder Ali, appealing to him for help in the name of the Prophet. A contemporary French account records this episode in far greater detail. I will share that source someday.
