Why Muslims have destroyed Hindu temples in india?

Question

Why Muslims have destroyed Hindu temples in india?

Answer 1

It is an interesting fact to note that the Hindu temples were looted & destroyed by all the conquers irrespective of the religion. Even the neighboring Hindu Kings also used to do the same because the kings and the elites used to store their wealth in the temples.



The kings and the elites of all the big and small Indian states accumulated wealth by exploiting the poor and the low cast people. The few elites lead a very good life and the poor majority suffered and starved. The elite used to store the wealth in the temples so that the god fearing poor majority do dare to steal it from there; even if it meant that they starved to death.



The elites of the neighboring kingdoms knew that the temples were used more as a bank (or a safe locker for storing wealth) than as a religious place. So, naturally they destroyed the temples in search of wealth.



In many cases, the gold, silver and precious stones were hidden inside the wall or below the floor. A typical example of modern times discovery is the Sri Padmanabhan temple of Trivandrum, Kerala.



So, there is no wonder that the temples were destroyed; you and I would do the same if we came to know about the possibility of a huge pile of treasure hidden in some place.

Answer 2

Muslims not destoyed hindu idols. some hindu extremists destroyed mosque in ayodya.

Answer 3

The temples were destroyed not now but nearly 500 years back. Being literates, we should not hear the words of politicians like illiterates. Temples were demolished and mosques were built not now but 500 years back. For the 500 years, Muslims are praying in that place.

Is it sense to comment on what happened before 500 years?

If the Hindus are more common peoples, why are you commenting about that now?

It is been happened before 500 years. Don t the Hindus have temples to pray now.



We should understand one thing that it is the time of kings at which time battles are allowed and even now it is allowed. All knows that why USA is demolishing IRAQ, AFGAN, SYRIA, etc when there are more countries like Somalia in the world to get developed and to safe guard the peoples. But why that were not even spoken and discussed about more. This is happening in front of your eyes. A country is demolishing other country for oil. Though the entire peoples knows that it is wrong they won’t ask. Because the suffering country is a Muslim country.



When a country is been defeated by any King, then the King has authority to do anything what he wants like how Gujarat incident has happened in which 22,000 peoples have been killed violently. But even during the time of Kings, No Muslim King has killed any people like this. Instead the Muslim kings were friendly like Akbar who had began DEEN ILAHI by combining Islam and Hinduism.



But the entire world is speaking badly about ISLAM without knowing what ISLAM is.



Prophet Muhammed ( SAL ) didn t teach us violent but mercy. The best example that I want to quote here is not only for non Muslims but to the MUSLIMS especially for the ISLAMIC TERRORISTS.



While the Holy Mecca is been captured by Prophet Muhammed ( SAL ), the non Muslims of Mecca were all in the fear and didn t came out of their house because of death fear. But Prophet has announced that all the non Muslims of Mecca are excused (in which a non Muslim who killed Prophet s uncle was also alive).



So the Prophet had excused even the enemies of Islam who had killed and tortured the Muslims in front of the Prophet. This is what Islam says. Not violent.



So no Muslim is allowed to do terrorist activities. Even if you do that you have to take revenge only on the particular personality who made any great fault and not on the common peoples. It is perfectly ***** (forbidden).



I think the above mentioned example is enough to understand what Islam says about humanity.

Answer 4

Because Islam is the sickest of all sick religions, I'm an Atheist but I have no desire to pull down Churches, demolish Mosques or otherwise deface temples. But if you are a Muslim it seems that defacing things which other religions hold dear is a good idea... Isn't that ironic when we consider that the mere drawing of Mohammad makes Muslims go completely mad and start violent protests often resulting in murder.

Answer 5

They will destroy anything that is not prescribed in their religious text that was written by barbaric attitude, their religion has an expansion policy. and destroying and converting people is their primary obligation. Peace has a different meaning to them. In the name of peace they will destroy because its their way or NO WAY. They are basically insecure people hence they avoid mingling with others, because they themselves know that their faith is week and meaningless. To prove they are right they will do anything. Take history or read the koran its all about war, ambush, wife beating, child marriage, multiple wives, no property rights for women. marrying daughter in laws. This is so screwed.

Answer 6

Muslims have attacked, India. So obviously they wish to expand their king dom and what ever comes in their way, they will destroy.



Hindu and Muslim religions are obvious different 'on surface'. So those religious leaders who are just without in depth knowledge of their own religion, are making wrong interpretations of their own religions and creating more animosity between people of various religions.



So, this looks like a logical step that a winner or rulers of religion, will certainly create harms to loosing kingdom.



They say every is fair in love and war. This is really ridiculous and myopic statement.

Answer 7

Islam is so hery harmful and evil. Why doesn't our govt eliminate islam?



Because we are not uncivilized like muslims, we believe in pliralism. But muslims only see this as weakness of hindus. Bur uniformcivil code must be applied, article 370 removed, mislim immigrants thrown out of assam and bengal etc, and madrasas mist ne forced to follow govt syllabus. We WILL slowly but surely wipe out the evil of islam from india and beyond. Not with violence, but with proper education and free thought. Islamic indoctrination of children must be stopped by madrasas immediately.



Civilized ppl give each other such freedoms, and are plural by nature. Your post clearly shows you are not civilized, you are a muslim.

Answer 8

Most monotheist religions are intolerant of other faiths. Just like Muslims destroyed many temples in India, Christians destroyed many pagan places of worship in Europe and the New World. Even other religions like Hinduism, Roman religion, Zoroastrianism, Greek religion, etc., have done the same thing. Everytime an army conquers new land, they have tried to impose their faith on the conquered people. However, compared to monotheist religions pagans and polytheists are more tolerant of other faiths.

Answer 9

100% , conspicuously the Muslim rulers built so may mahals and forts but they have no use to common people in history only for their self enjoyment also musilm rulers destroyed thousands of Temples in medieval period, even tajmahal is self emblem of one of Muslim ruler.

I agreed above conversation.

Answer 10

Okay. I know I am gonna get many thumbs down for this. But they did so because they are like that! Not all,but a good number of them is like that. They are nicest people when they come to us individually, but when they are with their community, they may get highly intolerant of other faiths. They are still doing this stuff. Like in Kashmir, they are doing genocide of Kashmiri Pandits. But our govt doesn't want to do anything because they are Muslim-oriented. That's other subject though. But they are very sensitive about religion.

Answer 11

There is no other country in the world from east to west, faces the agony that the Hindus in India have faced. There is no country in the world has been so ravaged and raped by outside forces as India has been down the centuries: Not Japan, not China, not Russia, none of the European countries, neither the Arab nations and certainly not the United States of America. Krishnadevaraya of the Vijayanagar Empire did not send his forces to Portugal to tear down churches, use force to convert Christians to Hinduism and indulge in religious terrorism. Prithviraj Chauhan did not invade Afghanistan nor Central Asia and raise temples. No Chola, Chera or Pandya (Indian) rulers sent a fleet to Saudi Arabia to tear down the Ka’aba and build a temple to Meenakshi on its ruins.No blood has been shed for religion in India except by its invaders.



Why muslims have destroyed the Hindu temples in india:

Muslim invaders from the west began pouring in large numbers one after the other. For the Muslim invaders, from Mahmood of Gazni in the eleventh century to the Moghuls in the sixteenth century,the Punjab was always the gateway of India. All these Muslim invaders massacred men, women and children without mercy, plundered their homes, desecrated and demolished their temples and robbed the wealth of these temples. The Hindus were converted to Islam at the point of the sword. For building mosques and converting hindus into muslims, and for establishing muslim raj, the hindu temple truesures are used. To rob the temple treasures the muslims destroyed the hindu temples.



The very first Muslim attack on India in Sindh in the year 715 A.D by Arabs khaliffa led by Mohammad Bin Qasim. The next invasion was by Turk Sabuktagin. He had established himself in Khorasan and extended his kingdom extended to Kabul and Ghazni. In 986 AD he came into conflict with Raja Jaipal of Bathinda. In 991 A.D. Raja Jaipal allied with other Hindu king including Rajyapala the Prathira king of Kannauj and Dhanga the ruler of the distant Chandela kingdom but they too were defeated.



Mahmud of Ghazni : The elder son-in-law of Sabuktagin, Mahmud of Ghazni assumed the throne in 997 AD. He was very conscious of the wealth he could achieve from further conquests into India. He was also a religious fanatic who aimed to spread Islam. Mahmud is said to have invaded India seventeen times between 1001 -1027 AD. King Jaipal and later his son Anandpal resisted Mahmud but were defeated. Between 1009 A.D and 1026 A.D he invaded Kangra, Thaneshwar, Kanauj, Mathura, Gwalior, Kashmir and Punjab. In 1025AD Mahmud invaded Somnath and looted its temple on the coast of Saurashtra or Kathiwar. Enormous treasure of the fortified temple was looted. His last invasion was in about 1027 AD. He died in 1030AD.

Answer 12

simple!! the purpose was to acquire money n power as was common among kings..while on his way for the somnath temple, mehmood ghajnavi came across a number of hindu temples & budha idols at bamiyan which he didnt harm even a bit (its ur homework, u chk his route to gujrat )..In fact he demolished jama masjid of golkunda on his way..now think n tell me whatz the reason :)

Answer 13

Muslims have, since the days of the prophet destroyed religious structures belonging to other religions



Not just in India



The prophet destroyed Hindu temple in kaaba



They are emulating their prophet

Answer 14

I think you are doing wrong by basing this question on religion. It has got more to do with the sick mentality of Aurangzeb, rather than his religion. After all Akbar did great things for our country, which was a lot more than what Aurangzeb destroyed.

Don't discriminate your thinking on the basis of religion. That's pure sick thing.

Answer 15

Muslims invaded India to loot the wealth. At those time, there are lot of gold, diamond etc. stacked in temples, so they destroyed Hindu temples to loot them.

Answer 16

The Islam religion believe in a special Allah (God) which no body on earth believe, According to my opinion their God is the Satan itself . Their soles turned to become full in hate to all humanity , full of arrogance this made them to believe that they are a very special distinctive people chosen by God to rule the Earth and kill every one not only against them but also who do not believe in their faith, this Islam turned them to become monsters thirsty to blood hungry to sex ( as they believe in the next life their God will give them a sex power as forty men and a lot of virgin women ready to be fucked by them in heaven) they became a traders in their believe everything they do good in their opinion God will pay for them every word they say which Mohammad taught them their God will pay for them every page they read from Quran their God will pay for them. Islam deformed the human sole in their bodies and other people paid a lot of blood and still will pay unless this faith and this religion disappeared from Earth.

Answer 17

It started with Mohammad, he set the ball in motion- there is records of him beheading 700 Jewish men who refused to convert to Islam. The women and children were spared though.

Answer 18

They destroyed the temples according to the vedas "Na tasya pratima asti". If you are a hindu, you would know what this means.



If what they have built is so worthless, why doesn't the government destroy it?

Answer 19

Muslim armies destroyed paganism in arabia

zoroastrianism in iran

buddhism in afghanistan

hinduism in pakistan

Answer 20

I wonder if Mahmud of Ghazni could have possibly been defeated?

Answer 24

Answer 26

Muslims were jealous of hindus, they never respect other religions.

Answer 27

Most of the temples were not destroyed but demolished as the Hindu gods that dwelt therein had abandoned the place.



It was unfortunate that Muslim rulers had only constructed 3,000 mosques instead of 60,000 in place of the temples.

Answer 30

Becauise of their insecurities.

Answer 31

Because their pieceful religion teaches this but now its payback time.

Answer 33

In the name of Allah, the most beneficent, the most merciful.



" There shall be no compulsion in [acceptance of] the religion. The right course has become clear from the wrong. So whoever disbelieves in Idols and believes in Allah has grasped the most trustworthy handhold with no break in it. And Allah is Hearing and Knowing. ( Holy Quran 2:256 )



" Say, "O disbelievers,

I do not worship what you worship.

Nor are you worshipers of what I worship.

Nor will I be a worshiper of what you worship.

Nor will you be worshipers of what I worship.

For you is your religion, and for me is my religion." ( Holy Quran 109:1-6 )

Answer 34

I don't think it was just Muslims. There has been so much conflict between Sikhs, Hindus and Muslims for hundreds of years. Whether it was Hindus and Sikhs against Muslims. Muslim's and Hindu's against Sikh's. Sikh's and Muslim's against Hindu's. They all did it to each other.

Answer 35

The Catholic Faith is the True Faith. A person can know this for certain by saying the rosary carefully every day.



http://www.sancta.org/rosary/how.html



The fifteen promises of Mary to Christians who recite the rosary:

1. Whoever shall faithfully serve me by the recitation of the Rosary shall receive signal graces.

2. I promise my special protection and the greatest graces to all those who shall recite the Rosary.

3. The Rosary shall be a powerful armor against Hell, it will destroy vice, decrease sin, and defeat heresies.

4. It will cause virtue and good works to flourish; it will obtain for souls the abundant mercy of God; it will withdraw the hearts of men from the love of the world and its vanities and will lead them to the desire of eternal things. Oh, that souls would sanctify themselves by this means.

5. The soul which recommends itself to me by the recitation of the Rosary, shall not perish.

6. Whoever shall recite the Rosary devoutly, applying himself to the consideration of its sacred mysteries, shall never be conquered by misfortune. God will not chastise him in His justice, he shall not perish by an unprovided death; if he be just, he shall remain in the grace of God and become worthy of eternal life.

7. Whoever shall have a true devotion for the Rosary shall not die without the Sacraments of the Church.

8. Those who are faithful to recite the Rosary shall have during their life and at their death the light of God and the plenitude of His graces; at the moment of death, they shall participate in the merits of the saints in Paradise.

9. I shall deliver from Purgatory those who have been devoted to the Rosary.

10. The faithful children of the Rosary shall merit a high degree of glory in Heaven.

11. You shall obtain all you ask of me by the recitation of the Rosary.

12. All those who propagate the Holy Rosary shall be aided by me in their necessities.

13. I have obtained from my Divine Son that all the advocates of the Rosary shall have for intercessors the entire Celestial Court during their life and at the hour of death.

14. All who recite the Rosary are my sons, and brothers of my only Son, Jesus Christ.

15. Devotion to my Rosary is a great sign of predestination.

Answer 36

THERE IS NO VALID/TRUSTFUL EVIDENCE THAT ISLAMIC RULER DESTROYED HINDU TEMPLE OR FORCED CONVERSION:ITS JUST FAKE LIE FROM RSS FOR THE VOTES FOR POOR/EMOTIONAL HINDUS:



PROHIBIT KILLING WITH UNJUST:



3:21. Verily! Those who disbelieve in the Ayât (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.) of Allah and kill the Prophets without right, and kill those men who order just dealings, announce to them a painful torment.

5: 32. Because of that We ordained for the Children of Israel that if anyone killed a person not in retaliation of murder, or (and) to spread mischief in the land - it would be as if he killed all mankind, and if anyone saved a life, it would be as if he saved the life of all mankind. And indeed, there came to them Our Messengers with clear proofs, evidences, and signs, even then after that many of them continued to exceed the limits (e.g. by doing oppression unjustly and exceeding beyond the limits set by Allah by committing the major sins) in the land!.

6: 151. Say (O Muhammad SAW): "Come, I will recite what your Lord has prohibited you from: Join not anything in worship with Him; be good and dutiful to your parents; kill not your children because of poverty - We provide sustenance for you and for them; come not near to Al-Fawâhish (shameful sins, illegal sexual intercourse, etc.) whether committed openly or secretly, and kill not anyone whom Allâh has forbidden, except for a just cause (according to Islâmic law). This He has commanded you that you may understand.

Muslim :: Book 1 : Hadith 371

Yazid al-Faqir said: This view of the Khwarij (i. e. those who commit major sins and would be eternally doomed to Hell)

Muslim :: Book 1 : Hadith 159 ,160

Ubaidullah b. Abu Bakr said: I heard Anas b. Malik saying: The Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) talked about the major sins, or he was asked about the major sins. Upon this he observed: Associating anyone with Allah, killing of a person, disobedience to parents. He (the Holy Prophet further) said: Should I not inform you about the gravest of the major sins, and (in this connection) observed: False utterance or false testimony. Shu'ba said. It was most probably" false testimony".

17: 33. And do not kill anyone which Allah has forbidden, except for a just cause. And whoever is killed (intentionally with hostility and oppression and not by mistake), We have given his heir the authority [(to demand Qisâs, Law of Equality in punishment or to forgive, or to take Diya (blood money)]. But let him not exceed limits in the matter of taking life (i.e he should not kill except the killer only). Verily, he is helped (by the Islamic law).

FORCED CONVERSION PROHIBITED:

2:256 Let there be no compulsion in religion: Truth stands out clear from error.

2: 272. Not upon you (Muhammad SAW) is their guidance, but Allah guides whom He wills. And whatever you spend in good, it is for yourselves, when you spend not except seeking Allah’s Countenance. And whatever you spend in good, it will be repaid to you in full, and you shall not be wronged.

4:28 “If then they turn away, We have not sent thee as a guard

over them. Thy duty is but to convey (the message).

5: 92. And obey Allah and the Messenger (Muhammad SAW), and beware (of even coming near to drinking or gambling or Al¬Ansâb, or Al¬Azlâm, etc.) and fear Allah. Then if you turn away, you should know that it is Our Messenger's duty to convey (the Message) in the clearest way.

6: 48. And We send not the Messengers but as givers of glad tidings and as warners. So whosoever believes and does righteous good deeds, upon such shall come no fear, nor shall they grieve.



6: 66. But your people (O Muhammad SAW) have denied it (the Qur'ân) though it is the truth. Say: "I am not responsible for your affairs."



67. For every news there is a fact, i.e. for everything there is an appointed term (and it is also said that for every deed there is a recompense) and you will come to know.



68. And when you (Muhammad SAW) see those who engage in a false conversation about Our Verses (of the Qur'ân) by mocking at them, stay away from them till they turn to another topic. And if Shaitân (Satan) causes you to forget, then after the remembrance sit not you in the company of those people who are the Zâlimûn



69. Those who fear Allah, keep their duty to Him and avoid evil are not responsible for them (the disbelievers) in any case, but (their duty) is to remind them, that they may avoid that (mockery at the Qur'ân).

FIGHTING FOR PHYSICAL EARNING PROHIBITED:

4:94. O you who believe! When you go (to fight) in the Cause of Allâh, verify (the truth), and say not to anyone who greets you (by embracing Islâm): "You are not a believer"; seeking the perishable goods of the worldly life. There are much more profits and booties with Allâh. Even as he is now, so were you yourselves before till Allâh conferred on you His Favors (i.e. guided you to Islâm), therefore, be cautious in discrimination. Allâh is Ever Well Aware of what you do.

33:19. Being miserly towards you (as regards help and aid in Allâh's Cause). Then when fear comes, you will see them looking to you, their eyes revolving like (those of) one over whom hovers death, but when the fear departs, they will smite you with sharp tongues, miserly towards (spending anything in any) good (and only covetous of booty and wealth). Such have not believed. Therefore Allâh makes their deeds fruitless, and that is ever easy for Allâh.

48: 15. Those who lagged behind will say, when you set forth to take the spoils, "Allow us to follow you," They want to change Allâh's Words. Say: "You shall not follow us; thus Allâh has said beforehand." Then they will say: "Nay, you envy us." Nay, but they understand not except a little.

3:14. Beautified for men is the love of things they covet; women, children, much of gold and silver (wealth), branded beautiful horses, cattle and well-tilled land. This is the pleasure of the present world's life; but Allâh has the excellent return (Paradise with flowing rivers, etc.) with Him

18: 46. Wealth and children are the adornment of the life of this world. But the good righteous deeds (five compulsory prayers, deeds of Allâh's obedience, good and nice talk, remembrance of Allâh with glorification, praises and thanks, etc.), that last, are better with your Lord for rewards and better in respect of hope.

MISCHIEF THROUGH THE LAND/VIOLENCE/TERRORISM/FITHNA PROHIBITED:

2: 205. And when he turns away (from you "O Muhammad SAW "), his effort in the land is to make mischief therein and to destroy the crops and the cattle, and Allah likes not mischief.

7: 56. And do not do mischief on the earth, after it has been set in order, and invoke Him with fear and hope; Surely, Allah’s Mercy is (ever) near unto the good doers.

7: 85……..Verily, a clear proof (sign) from your Lord has come unto you; so give full measure and full weight and wrong not men in their things, and do not mischief on the earth after it has been set in order, that will be better for you, if you are believers.

11: 116. If only there had been among the generations before you, persons having wisdom, prohibiting (others) from Al-Fasâd (disbelief, polytheism, and all kinds of crimes and sins) in the earth, except a few of those whom We saved from among them. Those who did wrong pursued the enjoyment of good things of (this worldly) life, and were Mujrimûn (criminals, disbelievers in Allâh, polytheists, sinners, etc.).

13: 25. And those who break the Covenant of Allâh, after its ratification, and sever that which Allâh has commanded to be joined (i.e. they sever the bond of kinship and are not good to their relatives), and work mischief in the land, on them is the curse (i.e. they will be far away from Allâh's Mercy); And for them is the unhappy (evil) home (i.e. Hell).



AND LAST ONE MOST IMPORTANT QUESTION FROM DR.ZAKIR NAIK

More than 80% non-Muslims in India.

The Muslims ruled India for about a thousand years. If they wanted, they had

the power of converting each and every non-Muslim of India to Islam. Today

more than 80% of the population of India are non-Muslims. All these non-

Muslim Indians are bearing witness today that Islam was not spread by the

sword.
