Absolutely bunkum @thewire_in
Jha ji cites, Romila Thapar & Shokoohy to claim that Arabs defended Somnath.
Truth is that the primary source , Al-Biruni doesn’t talks about such incidence.
Both Thapar & Shokoohy have just fabricated a story.
I dare any historian to prove it

Dear @thewire_in , in this review of of Romila Thapar’s
"Somanatha, The Many Voices of a History" #MeenakshiJain ji destroys the propaganda so well.
The same book is one of the source of Prem Shankar Jha in this non-scholarly article.

Interestingly, author Jha, claims in the article that Kathak & Khayal Gayaki were born in period of Amir Khusraw.
What a joke.
The roots of Kathak is found in "Natya Shastra". Even the conservative Marxist historians place this text 3-4 centuries before so called birth of Jesus

Dear @thewire_in we find, Kathak in Bharhut stupa. Again the conservative dating places it two centuries before the so called Jesus was born.
Tell your author, Shri Jha to not make such claims that Kathak was born in period of Amir Khusraw.

The Mudras found are "Pataka Hasta" as shown in the quoted tweet.
I really feel sorry for people for @sardesairajdeep etc who get fooled by these eminent historians.

The term "Kathakas" as the "reciters of sacred lore" is found in "Adi Parva ".
"कथकाश्चापरे राजञ्श्रमणाश्च वनौकसः |"
And the term Kathaka actually comes from "Katha" itself.

The author of @thewire_in talks about "Architecture."
Does he even know what he is trying to talk about?
The amazing trait of Kailasha Mandir can out do any architecture like Taj. We dealt with fractals ages ago.
If they were so great then why no Taj in Samarkand?

And since they are talking about Architecture, how are they going to deny the documented 40K+ Mandirs which were destroyed by the Islamic Invaders?
The structures that you build by demolishing traditions can't be called "Architecture". The are symbol of tyranny.

I don't know for how long are they going to drag this lie that Khilji saved India from Mongol invasion?
Khalji identified himself as a Muslim Turk & the so called Mongols fought on Turkic mercenaries.
That apart they all were Trurco-Mongols in reality.

In terms of brutality, Allauddin Khilji was no different than any Turk who were prepared to attack India on the side of Mongols.
And one of the major reason for failure of Mongol Invasion was the series of plagues. This paper may clear it a bit carnegiescience.edu

This argument is one of the most laughable.
So just because some Rajputs were given place in courts, it would wash off the massacres of Garha, Chittor and so on and on.
They themselves have penned their intention to destroy Kafirs clearly.

Again a nonsensical statement.
Though I can cite thousands of primary sources, I cite one to refute it.
"... he (Mahmud) issued orders that in the places conquered, mosques be raised and Hindus be converted to Islam." - Zayn al-akbar

And then comes this useless claim about Islam being anti-case and hence voluntary conversion.
Who can be better person to quote than Dr Ambedkar who goes on to say that Islam is no alien from caste & it was cause for slavery too in India (image 2, 3).

Dear @thewire_in evidences for Ambedkar showing caste-system in Islam is contained in this thread. This thread also has part of Ambedkar's book where he says that Slavery existed in India only because of support by Islam.
What @thewire_in @JhaPremshankar ? Bhakti Movement and Sufism being compared?
What is wrong with you? Sufism mellowed Islam?
Aurangzeb was a Sufi and the Islamisation of Kashmir at force of sword occurred at hands of Sufi Bulbul Shah.

It seems that author has no clue about "Islamic Tradition."
According to Ibn Taymiyya, "the primacy of the sharia forms the soundest tradition in tasawwuf (Sufism)."
Al-Ghazali's works set the structuralism of Sufism. Read this book books.google.co.in
