PADMANABHA

This was the an early history of the brutal 1298 Muslim Invasion of Gujarat a large state of India that was then Hindu. The Islamic Armies spread out from the Middle East and converted a large proportion of the worlds people to Islam. Force or “conversion by the sword” was one of the tools, but millions of people welcomed Islam and saw it as a great modernizing force for the dignity and equality of people—especially in Hindu India where the caste system made all inferior to the Brahmins and the lowest cast literally “untouchables.”
