Selam Eleykum! Mughals = Ottomans = Muslim Turks!!! Mughal is a Corrupted word for Mongols. The Ppl of Mongolia are called as Mongols. Since Genghiz Khan started his conquest from Mongolia, the descendants were called as Mongols. They were all Tartar-Turks descended from the HUNS!!!! Babur was the descandant of Chengiz Khan, whose grandsons embraced Islam. Thus the last stock of non-muslim Tartar-Turks also became muslims. Witnessing the subjugation and oppression by the Chrisitians of Spain towards the Muslims of Spain, also the Portuguese invasion of West coast of India, the defragmentation of Delhi Sultanate, the Ottoman Caliph commissioned Babur with their newest military technology - the Matchlocks. The aim of Babur was to Unite Hind again and raise the banner of Islam high once again.! History of the Caliphate in the Indian Subcontinent : http://www.hizb.org.uk/hizb/resources/islamic-knowledge/the-khilafah-and-the-indian-subcontinent.html Hind-istan = Land of Hindi people "-istan" is the suffix in Turish which means " Land of" Clearly the name of current Hindustan (Litrelly means land of hindus) is misnomer as it makes no sense as here are 30% muslims present. Its a land of muslims as well. ***************** Quotes on Islamic History of Al-Hind : http://www.cyberistan.org/islamic/quote4.htm Aurangzeb : http://www.albalagh.net/general/0093.shtml Throughout its existence the Delhi Sultanate (1205-1526), remained a legal part of the worldwide Muslim empire functioning under the de jure suzerainty of the Abbasid caliphs. Sultans considered themselves the deputies of the caliph and derived their validity of their administrative and legal authority only on the basis of delegation. Since the supreme authority of the community legally remained with the caliph, every king and potentate claimed to exercise governmental power for, and on behalf of the Imam of Islam. ---[Shashi S. Sharma, Caliphs and Sultans Religious ideology and political praxis, pg. 247] Muhammad Shah Bahamani III (1463-82), paid tributes to the Ottoman Sultan Muhammad II as the one deserving to be the Khalifah. The kingdom of Bijapur adopted the Turkish (Uthmani) symbol as its royal emblem. Malik Ayaz, one of he leading nobles of Gujarat addressed Sultan Salim I as Khalifah on earth. Subtle evidences of the great esteem in which Mughal rulers held the Sultan of Turkey can also be gleaned from the few correspondences that flew between Delhi and IstanbulIn a letter to Sultan Suleiman, Humayun (ruler of India) addressed him as the Khalifah of the highest qualities and prayed for eternal perpetuation of his caliphate. He quotes a Quranic verse to indicate to the Sultan that He (God) has sent thee as the Khalifah on the earthSultan Ibrahim sent a letter to Shahjahan in which he proclaimed himself as the Refuge and asylum of the monarchs of the world who has been bestowed the good fortune to occupy the throne of Khilafat. Ahmad Aqa, the Turkish envoy brought a missive from his Sultan to the court of Aurangzeb in 1690 which was thick with Quranic quotations and references to the Sultan as the Khalifah of Islam. In 1723, Muhammad Shah (1719-1748) resumed Mughal correspondence with the Porte in Istanbul. In his letter, Muhammad Shah styles the Sultan the asylum of the greatest Sultans, the protector of the most honoured kings, the adorner of the exalted throne of Khilafat, and the spreader of the precepts of shariat. ---[Shashi S. Sharma, Caliphs and Sultans Religious ideology and political praxis, pg. 248-249] ***************************** It is striking to note that the subjects of british and french empire cursed their rulers while subjects of the caliphate loved their rulers. This can be seen in todays growing call for the caliphate throughout the muslim world. The ppl who lived in the lands of caliphate longs for the return of shade of Allah - Islamic State. www.khilafah.com www.hizb.org.uk www.islamicsystem.blogspot.com *************************** Did you know... 1. The British tried to destroy Taj Mahal in 1835 and sell its marble at auction, fortunately, the auctioning of earlier destroyed Indian buildings (palaces and religious sites) was a failure thereby saving the Taj from destruction. Although the british stole all the red precious emeralds embedded in the calligraphy and replaced them with cheap muts. The British were theives.! 2. In 1700, India's share of the world's economy was 24.44% compared to Britain's 2.88% (when islamic economic system was implemented), by 1952 India & Pakistan's share of the World economy was reduced to 4% (Source: The Corporation that changed the World and Wikipedia).
