'Sufi' Jalaluddin Rumi - his bottomless hatred for anything Hindustan & Hindus; questioning as to why this islamic BIGOT is held out to be a virtuous & pious soul and an unifier of faiths, preaching universal brotherhood & all that... Thread (1/14)
Rumi considered Hindu to be always ugly, black & of evil omen - and 'on occasions has compared Hindu with unclean black dog.' Off Annmarie Schimmel: The Triumphant Sun. (2/14)

Rumi saw the whole [non-islamic] world as a Hindustan that must be destroyed in 'Turkish Style.'

Ah, 'Fraudulent Hindu!' (Masnavi, Book1, Verse2198)
So is a typical Hindu characterized & stereotyped, by our Rumi, the beloved of all pious and sanctimonious preachers of love, brotherhood and what not! (7/14)
