- (8) Raja Jayasthiti of Nepal also avenged Muslim religious aggression in like manner. He too followed Medhatithi’s policy of rushing the wicked enemy. About A.D. 1360, Shamsuddin—the Nawab of Bengal —attacked Nepal and played havoc there, destroying many Hindu and Buddhist temples, converting violently hundreds of Hindu and Buddhist subjects. When this brave Hindu King came to the throne, he made Nepal a hotbed for the Muslims, drove them out completely and avenged the wrongs done to his subjects. Not only did he rebuild the ruined Hindu and Buddhist temples, but he even reconverted to Hinduism all the unfortunate Hindus and Buddhists, who had been the victims of the Muslim aggression.
- (9) In the historical records of the times, like the Tarikhs, one curiously finds the Muslim writers themselves complaining that at the least opportunity, the Hindu kafirs converted even the Muslim women to Hinduism and married them in the Hindu community. Such events, of which no trace whatever, can be found in our Hindu historical books, are available only in the Muslim historical records.
- (10) For instance, in Tarikh-i-Sorath, its Muslim writer says: “Even at the troubled times of Mahmud Ghazni’s expeditions, the King of Anhilwad at the first opportunity, carried away several of the Turkish, Moghul and Afghan women who lingered behind and the Hindus married them unhesitatingly.” He also puts it on record that whenever possible, the Hindus carried away Muslim women en masse and converted them to Hinduism! He has also given some interesting information on the purification and reconversion ceremony of Muslim women performed by the Hindus.
- He says, “while converting the Muslim women as a class, the Hindu priests burned some barley over their heads. Then, they were given some water mixed with cowdung to drink. Then they were considered fit for all mutual dealings, and the Hindus married them as per their tastes and desires. At some places in the ceremonial mass conversion of Muslim women, these Hindus gave them purgatives and vomiting drugs, and thereafter, distributed them among the various Hindu castes and classes, according to their ranks. The fairest women fell to the lot of high-ranking Hindus. Sardars and noblemen married those of decent birth and lineage, while the maids and slaves were wedded to the Hindus of their respective classes. The whole progeny of these women was completely merged into those respective classes of the Hindu society.”
