#Thread detailing suffering of our Hindu ancestors who were captured, humiliated and enslaved during atrocious Islamic rule in Medieval India, mostly as war booty.

As observed by Prof KS Lal in his well researched book, ‘Muslim Slave System in Medieval India’, while Muslim chronicles have adequately and proudly recorded the strength of Hindus (or infidels as mentioned by them) killed and enslaved after every campaign and raid,..

.. they have maintained pin drop silence on the level of humiliation and suffering of the Hindu captives and slaves in Islamic households.

A mention of their pitiable, inhuman and heart wrenching condition can be found in a 15th century Hindu Indian work - Kanhadade Prabandha- composed in old Rajasthani or old Gujarati dialect...

.. This work records the glory of Chahamana King Kanhardeva of Jalor against Alauddin Khilji’s general Ulugh Khan, while he had attacked Gujarat in 1299 and captured a massive number of Hindu prisoners.

Kanhadade Prabandha says this on the condition of Hindu prisoners when Ulugh Khan had lunched a cruel campaign against the local Hindu kingdoms in Sorath (Saurashtra) region in 13th century CE :-

“they made people captive -Brahmanas and children and women, in fact, people of all (description)...huddled them and tied them by straps of raw hide. The number of prisoners made by them was beyond counting. The prisoners’ quarters (bandikhana) were entrusted to the care of Turks

The prisoners suffered greatly and wept aloud. During the day they bore the heat of the scorching sun, without shade or shelter as they were [in the sandy desert region of Rajasthan], and the shivering cold during the night under open sky.

Children, torn away from their mother’s breasts and homes, were crying. Each one of the captives seemed miserable as the other. Already writhing in agony due to thirst, the pangs of hunger... added to their distress.

Some of the captives were sick, some unable to sit up. Some had no shoes to put on and no clothes to wear. ...Some had iron shackles on their feet. Separated from each other, they were huddled together and tied with straps of hide.

Children were separated from their parents, the wives from their husbands, thrown apart by this cruel raid. Young and old were seen writhing in agony, as loud wailings arose from that part of the camp where they were all huddled up...

Weeping and wailing, they were hoping that some miracle might save them even now. “

By Ishwar’s blessings, miracle did happen. King Kanhardeva of Jalor launched a surprising attack on the camp of Ulugh Khan and succeeded in rescuing those Hindu captives from their obvious inhuman fate as slaves in a Muslim dominion.

From the above description and other countless accounts available from Hindu side [which our leftist (dis)historians quite conveniently ignore to peddle their secular lies], it is evident as to what kind of inhuman atrocities Islamic forces used to inflict on Hindu prisoners,..

.. during war as well as peace times, to break their spirit and keep them enslaved, physically and psychologically, by forcefully converting them, for the rest of their lives...

Strong ones kept on resisting till their last breath, while others simply succumbed to the Islamic onslaught.

Nonetheless , I bow to all our brave and resilient ancestors, who upheld our Dharma at all cost during Medieval times, because of whom we and our timeless Sanatan Dharma still survives on our dearest, revered Motherland.

Unfortunately, the battle is still on for the existence.. and we shall win this one too.
Jai Bhavani , Jai Bharat Maata.🙏
