4:38 On 24 January 1556, Humayun, with his arms full of books, was descending the staircase from his library Sher Mandal when the muezzin announced the Azaan (the call to prayer). It was his habit, wherever and whenever he heard the summons, to bow his knee in holy reverence. Trying to kneel, he caught his foot in his robe, slipped down several steps and hit his temple on a rugged stone edge. He died three days later.
The Mughal Empire is perhaps my favourite of India's history. I worked at an Islamic museum in Canada and we did a show on Mughal painting and I fell in love with the colours and life inside these small works of art!

Correct The bengal subah alone generated 50% of the moghul economy and the rest of the indian subcontinent generated the other 50%. It was the most industrial and wealthiest region on earth at the time
The International Monetary Fund, in its World Economic Outlook report late on October 13, said that Bangladesh is set to beat India in terms of per capita gross domestic product (GDP) in calendar year 2020
@Very very beta i agree sir. They have been a wealthy trading nation for over a thousand years 👍 Bengal subah,bengal sultanate, pala,chandra,sena going all the way back to ancient vanga
Yes, but they did not establish a political system. They were there doing business or preaching religion in different parts of greater Bengal. If you watch the previous video of this series, you will see how Islam, as a ruling force, came to Bengal during the Ghurid empire. Ikhtiyar Uddin Muhammad Bin Bakhtiyar Khilji was the man.
Amazing as always. As a Hyderabadi, I just found out that no one has made a video extensively about the Deccan Sultanates and the Asaf Shahi Dynasty of Hyderabad. It kind of saddens me that the historical importance of Hyderabad Deccan has been largely overlooked by a lot of people. I wish you'd make a video about it.
The main reason why the anything about the Nizam isn't taught in schools is because of the atrocities committed by the Indian Army sent for the annexation of Hyderabad. Estimates say that almost 200,000 (2 lakh) people (razakars and civilians) were killed.

Triggering hindu nationalists is ok but trigger them with facts atleast Panini, an ancient Sanskrit scholar who Wrote a treatise on Sanskrit grammar says a stamped piece of silver (Rupa) metal is called "rupya" It maybe possible that Persian and Sanskrit being indo Aryan have the same wording just like they have for countless others like azadi Sher Shah has only re introduced it
Thankyou for covering Mughaliya Sultanate It is the fall of Mughals in 1857 that led to the events which would eventually endup in creation of separate muslim state for indian muslims. Regards from Pakistan
@Baby Sama 712 afghans ended Marathas?😂😂😂 Fyi Marathas fought 20 more battles after panipat and took the revenge by butchering 25,000 afghan garrison residing in dilli under najib khan😂
@Baby Sama 712 what am I talking? Reconstruction of Maratha happened after panipat and they took control over north again after exact 10 years of panipaby taking revenge from the afghans residing in dilli under najib khan. This iam talking about. And afghans won only single war which was panipat Battle if attock 1758 Kunjpura 1760 Dilli 1771 Was won by Marathas against afghans and 1771 battle if dilli was exactly 10 years after panipat in which they defeated the durranis and gained the control of northern India again
Actually that’s no true! The real story is that the British colonialism empire created Pakistan for Indian Muslims mostly for Punjabi’s Muslims that served in the British colonialism empire
@@quiasnoorzad Well If there was no mughal rule in india then there wouldn't have been that many muslims in the subcontinent to demand a seperate state based on relegion, so the mughals are the reason for the existence of Pakistan and Bangaldesh.
Hindi is just a sanskritized version of Hindustani while Urdu is the Persianized version, the only difference is the vocabulary and writing system. And both Hindi and Urdu speakers can understand each other, and sometimes Urdu words r used in place of Hindi words by Hindi speakers and vice-versa...
while word Hindu derived from Sindhu or you can say people of Indus Hinduism(present religion) has nothing to do with word Hindu and the people at that time follow other religion They didn't worship idols
@@mr.comment8781 Get over the idea that Hinduism is ALL about worshipping (or not worshipping) idols. Idols are nothing but abstract representations of divinity in the way they are described in Vedic Hindu texts. Hinduism is about the wisdom and values of the various forms of divinity relayed through their stories. Idols only help the people remember the particular form of divinity at the time of prayer, simple. People in Vedic (and even before that in Indus Valley times) had sculptures of human and animal figures, which clearly show that they had some form of godly figures with form. We may have some parts of our texts talking about formless Gods, but as a community we are not monotheistic, we never were, and we will never be.
good thing Allah broke those heathen evil empire to pieces and his descendant converted to Islam and civilized, eventhough they still reatin their warlike habits, but more tamed.
6:57 The Hindustani word rupyā is derived from the Sanskrit word rūpya, which means "wrought silver, a coin of silver". It finds a mention in Arthashastra written by Chanakya, minister to the Emperor Chandragupta Maurya who mentions silver coins as rūpyarūpa. It seems that Hindu Nationalists will continue to live in your mind rent free despite the lies you tell yourself.
Brother, it is very famous that Sher shah Suri did that, even I have heard it before, and I didn't know about the thing you told ، so apparently he didn't do anything bad.
@@joaquimfurtado4868 okay brother, I didn't know this,, I am a student of history, and all of my knowledge of history is from documentaries and books and other people, I don't have any problem with the mauryan empire, in fact I am also a rajpoot. Okay I agree with you that rupee was first established by Mauryan empire. But the rupee coin was not in use when it was established again by Sher Shah. Sher Shah was a very good ruler, who did many great things for the people, on which the people are still benefitting.
I don't know about Pakistan, but in Bangladesh, Islam came before the Mughal empire and mass conversions took place in some areas, through Sufi preachers and others such as Hazrat Shah Jalal in Sylhet. Also Bakhtiyar Khalji was the first person to bring Bengal under Muslim control- under the Ghaznavids. I don't think Bengal owes much to the Mughals as far as Islam is concerned. I also think that the Pakistani regions might also have a somewhat similar history. I heard that Pakistan region became majority Muslim, because of early missionary efforts that were supported by the Arab conquerers. Early Arab conquests were always accompanied with missionary work, something later dynasties such as the Mughals did not continue, which is why India is not a Muslim majority country.
Actually Mongolians have attacked them before Mughals and after that khijli empire in india killed rajputs and after that we got Mughals invasion than god for Chatrapati he stopped them fortunately
All thanks to Hindu kings who protected Hindu religion all the time. Even made Akbar tolerant and to think twice before adopting any religious policies.
Mughal history should be perserved as they played a role in creating modern India.Its a shame that the BJP government are trying to remove them from Indian history books and architecture
They destroyed most of India, Indians living under Mughals were mostly poor. According to European travel Thomas Roe, who visited Jahangir's court - There were more poor people in India tan the fish in the seas.
@@walterwhite8229 Here the component of contention isn't really religion. Most things were done to expand ones military might. The best path to that was claiming a religious group. Many of these rulers were seeking that, even Shivaji. And Aurangzeb and Babur were way less radicalised than many Muslim's today. But I guess as they embrace development they will break out of their stupid ideology.
Great work. Some comments: 1. Before Mughals, there was 3 centuries of Muslim rule of various dynasties collectively known as Delhi Sultanate. These were broadly either Afghan or Turkic. Babur took over from ‘Lodhi’ an Afghan. In the early years of Mughal rule there was power struggle between Afghan and Turkic as we see Suri re-establishing Afghan dominance. Akbar allied with Rajputs to increase the power base of Mughals. 2. Sikhism did not appear as a distinct religion during Jahangir’s time. Many Sikhs like many other Punjabi clans are of Rajput descent. They provided military service for the Mughals. Probably , Gurus saintly activities were deemed conflicting to military service for the Mughals. 3. Aurangzeb introduced austerity measures as the lavish spending during his father’s reign had depleted the treasury. As a result many Hindus who were affiliated with entertainment industry lost their job. This was projected as anti-Hinduism. 4. The Muslims were concentrated in large urban centers surrounded by farmland across north India as continuous culture connecting Pakistan and Bangladesh. With introduction of democracy and partition on the basis of religion, all these large urban centers got absorbed in India, leaving muslim concentration in west and east with no connection. 5. Hinduism was not defined as a religion until partition. The sufis spread Islam over several centuries by merely asking people to say the ‘shahada’ followed by no training. That’s why Islam is practiced much differently in India compared to other parts of the world. 6. Regarding Urdu-Hindi, it is actually Hindi that substituted several Arabic/Persian vocabulary by Sanskrit words. Just watch some pre-2000 Bollywood movies and compare with recent ones, and you will see the difference. Or listen to the old songs of Lata and Kishore. 7. The reason of Muslim power decline was rooted in dynastic system. However, when one family dynasty declined, another would replace it. Mughals started declining after 100 years, but they were not replaced until after another 200 years, eventually by the British. Nadir Shah and Ahmed Shah Abadali had the opportunity but showed interest in looting only. Another reason which is of more global significance was of negligence in sea. Muslims did not develop strong navy to protect their waters.
The Mughals were so great that they could spend a lavish amount of money on a mausoleum but could not care to build any universities or hospitals for the welfare of the people. That is what great rulers and dynasties do.
A little anecdote from the Internet about the greatness... *As with theologians and court officials of Delhi Sultanate, his advisors counseled in favor of religious violence. Shaikh Nizam[who?], for example, counseled, "There is nothing equal to a religious war against the infidels. If you be slain you become a martyr, if you live you become a ghazi."[32] Sher Shah's Mughal army then attacked the fort of Kalinjar, captured it, killing every person inside that fort.[32]*
10:50 I'm yet to find a source that confirms that Aurangzeb played any role in the construction of any kind of Temple. On the contrary, there are tons of example that are proof of his radical views. Not even NCERT could give any source when asked in an RTI request. So please let me know if you can actually substantiate your claim.
Mathura dao ji temple was constructed by Aurangzeb. There are many testinomies and historians who received grant from Aurangzeb and it is even recorded temple walls date backs to Aurangzeb time himself. Like someshvar mahadev temple
@@Teamup353 I said construction not mere maintenance. It's a fact that he prohibited construction of new temples. Dao Ji temple recieved grants for the upkeep, assuming that source is valid and it was not a work of local governor or Zamindar. As to Someshwar Temple pillar, inscription is not quite legible (even historians agree on this) But let's just give the benefit of doubt ad agree that he provided some lamd grants for the maintenance of old temples, still no New Temple constructed during his rule. In Mathura alone he destroyed new temples.
MALAY SUBTITLES Part 3 of 4 08:43 Video Mythology Guy dalam kolaborasi Discovery of India membincangkan mengenai yayasan tersebut 08:47 orang Sikh, periksa itu. 08:50 Perkara yang menarik dari pemerintahan Jahangir adalah dia berusaha mengambil alih Ahmadnagar 08:55 selatan yang jatuh pada tahun 1616 tetapi seorang jeneral yang tidak dikenali yang terkenal bernama Malik Ambar (Negara 09:01 عنبر) memulakan perang gerila melawan orang-orang Mughal di sana. 09:03 Dia menjadi sakit kepala utama bagi orang-orang Mughal tetapi lebih merosakkan orang-orang Mughal adalah warisan 09:07 Penentangan Deccan terhadap pemerintahan Mughal yang dia mulakan. 09:11 Dia telah mengumpulkan banyak orang Hindu dan Muslim dalam misinya termasuk seorang jeneral Maratha bernama 09:15 Shahaji Bhosale. 09:16 Dia akan menjadi penting kemudian. 09:19 Malik Ambar meninggal pada tahun 1626 dan Jahangir meninggal pada tahun 1627, meninggalkan Kerajaan Mughal ke Shahab 09:24 ad-Din Muhammad Shah Jahan (شھاب tupu محمد شاہ جہان). 09:26 Shah Jahan menekan lebih kuat di Deccan tetapi sekali lagi, tidak berjaya. 09:30 Pada tahun 1646, Shah Jahan benar-benar mengetuai kempen ke Transoxiana dengan impian untuk menakluk 09:36 Empayar Timurid. 09:38 Walau bagaimanapun, tidak ada yang dicapai di sana. 09:40 Dialah yang membina Taj Mahal untuk isterinya yang tersayang, Mumtaz Mahal (ممتاز 09:44 Istana) yang, dengan cara, meninggal melahirkan anak keempat belas pasangan itu di 09:48 tahun kesembilan belas perkahwinan mereka pada tahun 1631. 09:52 Shah Jahan sepertinya hampir mati pada tahun 1657 dan jadi, perang saudara meletus 09:58 anak lelaki. 09:59 Walaupun Shah Jahan pulih, anak-anaknya terlalu banyak melabur dalam perang dan begitu, dia 10:03 digulingkan dan dipenjarakan oleh puteranya sendiri Muhi ud-Din Muhammad Aurangzeb (محیمان 10:07 محمد اورنگزیب) pada tahun 1658 setelah dia memenangi perang saudara terhadap saudaranya. 10:11 Shah Jahan akan menghabiskan lapan tahun berikutnya dipenjarakan di kubu Agra untuk dapat melihat 10:16 tetapi tidak pernah mengunjungi Taj Mahal. 10:17 Aurangzeb adalah apa yang disebut secara tradisional saleh. 10:21 Dia mencabut banyak dasar toleransi yang dilaksanakan oleh Akbar. 10:25 Dia memaksakan Islam ke seluruh wilayah, bahkan menyusun Fatawa al-Alamgiriyya (الفتاوى 10:30 العالمكيرية) yang merupakan penyusunan syariat dari pelbagai sumber seperti 10:33 Al-Quran dan Hadis. 10:35 Dia melarang Muzik tetapi dia tidak dapat memaksakannya sepenuhnya. 10:37 Walaupun, pada masa yang sama, dia mempekerjakan orang di mahkamahnya berdasarkan kebajikan dan bukan agama. 10:43 Dia mempekerjakan peratusan Hindu terbesar di istananya, dari mana-mana penguasa Mughal. 10:47 Dia memerintahkan pembinaan kuil Hindu sementara, pada masa yang sama, memerintahkan 10:51 pemusnahan kuil-kuil yang dianggapnya "menarik bagi umat Islam". 10:56 Seperti datuknya, Akbar, Aurangzeb adalah penakluk. 10:59 Dia menghabiskan sebahagian besar hidupnya dalam kempen ketenteraan. 11:02 Dia memperluas kerajaan ke selatan tetapi semakin sukar untuk dikawal. 11:07 Dia membuka Kotak Pandora yang merupakan Deccan. 11:10 Dia menguasai Empayar Mughal di puncak wilayahnya dan menguasai bahagian terbesar 11:15 India sejak kematian Muhammad ibn Tughlaq (محمد ابن تغلق) pada tahun 1351. 11:18 Anak Shahaji Bhosale, pahlawan Maratha hebat Chhatrapati Shivaji Bhosale diasaskan 11:24 kerajaan Maratha yang akan dengan cepat menakluki sejumlah tanah yang mengagumkan di 11:28 selatan. 11:29 Freemanpedia telah membuat video mengenai Marathas sebagai bahagian dari Discovery of India. 11:33 Anda boleh menyemaknya. 11:35 Sibuk dengan menjaga dan memperluas kerajaannya, Aurangzeb gagal memerintahnya. 11:40 Pada pendapat saya, Aurangzeb tidak pernah tahu bila hendak mengakhiri perang dan pulang. 11:44 Zamindars dan Mansabdars memperoleh kekuatan yang lebih banyak dan semakin gelisah. 11:49 Sistem yang dibentuk oleh Akbar memerlukan penguasa yang kuat dan aktif yang dapat mengawasi 11:53 Mansabdars tetapi itu bukan pakaian Aurangzeb yang kuat. 11:57 Di atas semua itu, Mansabdar bosan menaikkan dan mengirim pasukan sepanjang masa. 12:02 Perbendaharaan kerajaan juga habis oleh peperangan yang berterusan. 12:06 Aurangzeb menghabiskan tahun-tahun terakhirnya sama ada menakluki tanah baru atau menghancurkan pemberontakan pada masa sebelumnya 12:11 yang ditakluki. 12:12 Selepas kematian Aurangzeb pada tahun 1707, perang saudara meletus. 12:16 Sebelum berakhir, dua anak lelaki dan tiga cucunya sudah mati. 12:20 Anak sulungnya Bahadur Shah (بہادر شاہ) naik takhta pada usia enam puluh empat tahun. 12:25 Dia mencabut dasar konservatif dan diskriminasi ayahnya terhadap penganut Hindu, 12:30 untuk memenangkan mereka. 12:31 Walaupun, umat Hindu bukanlah masalah terbesar yang dihadapi kerajaan. 12:36 Bahadur Shah sendiri meninggal pada tahun 1712 dan sebelum tahun 1720, terdapat dua lagi perang berturut-turut 12:42 sehingga pemerintahan Muhammad Shah (محمد شاہ) bermula. 12:45 Pemerintahannya agak menstabilkan kerajaan sehingga pada tahun 1739, Nadir Shah (نادر شاہ), 12:50 penguasa Afsharid di Parsi menyerang, menjarah dan memecat Delhi. 12:55 Apa sahaja ilusi yang ada di sekitar orang-orang Mughal mengenai kekuatan mereka kini hancur. 12:59 Maratha telah menakluki hampir seluruh India Selatan. 13:02 Sekarang, mereka melihat Delhi sendiri.
I would say that the Delhi sultanate caused more conversions to islam than Mughals. They were rather aggressive religiously, with Tughlaq era being the most oppressive for hindus. Mughals were largely secular compared to them, with the exception of Aurangzeb.
Conversions usually happen because of convenience rather than aggression of the ruling class. I'm not saying it doesn't happen but in most cases, it's not the driving force behind conversions. The Sufi Islam Mughals brought made it easier for Hindus to convert. With Sunni Islam, it was too unacceptable to Hindus since it was not only very different but also very rigid and even lower caste Hindus didn't convert early on because caste system was too deeply rooted in the people that even conversion didn't change their status.
@@AlMuqaddimahYT I agree with you, but the point I am trying to make is that the Sultans of Delhi were more eager and more invested in bringing people to islam, than the mughals. So the sentence you said early on kinda makes mughals seem like religious zealots in eyes of many hindus.
Not many people know this but Pakistani Punjab didnt become Muslim majority until the last few decades of British rule. Before British rule, the only Muslim majority provinces of India were East Bengal (Bangladesh) , Sindh and Kashmir. In Punjab, Hindus and Sikhs combined were the majority for a long time. The Muslim population growth of Punjab was due to much higher birth rates. And surprisingly, although there around 200 million Punjabis today, before the 1860s, there were only about 4-5 million people in united Punjab. Muslims were scattered around in small populations around India. Back then, they accounted for less than 10% of the population. However, due to higher birth rates, they have managed to make up about 30-40% of the Subcontinents population. This shows that "Mass Conversion" was not a policy of Muslim Kingdoms and Empires. There were many forced conversions during times of war or rebellion and Sufis helped to spread Islam, especially in Bengal but it shows that making India Muslim majority was either an impossible feat or not a priority for the Muslim rulers.
Sher shah suri was great and all, but rupees was first made the national currency of India under mauryans, not under him. Rupee itself has been a word for money as long as at least the rig vedas
Mughal architecture was not Persian, it was merely Persian influenced. Similarly, we dont say Khmer, Srivijayan, Champan, Ayutthayan or Burmese architecture is Indian, we say its Indian influenced. Mughal architecture, a style that comes under the broader Indian umbrella, is mainly a combination of Rajasthani, Gujarati and Bengali architectural styles.
@bir ümmet tek millet Hello....I think u have got it wrong .....Actually, Sanskrit is a sister language to Avestan or Old Persian Language..... So, technically modern Persian derives similarities becoz of its ancient ties with Sanskrit and not the other way around..... Although, some of the vocab of Hindi comes from recent Persian influence.....
@bir ümmet tek millet Sorry....I thought that I can have a productive conversation with u.... But, now I think that I will not waste my time discussing with somebody who seems to be a propagandist and knows utterly nothing about linguistics and history in general... Although, I could have counter argued that your English seems to be rather annoying to my eyes.... So, you better improve it instead of thinking about Sanskritam as it is way far from your intellectual reach....
Al muqqadimah hindu nationalists don't need to change it because rupee comes rupiya ( hindi/urdu) which comes from rupa ( a Sanskrit word meaning coin of silver ) which comes from uruppu a Tamil word . Further Sher Shah Suri wasn't the first one to use it . During the rule of Ashoka the great and the mauryas . The standard currency of indian subcontinent was known as rupyarupa (we have that coin in our museum dating to 200 bce ) . The only thing Sher Shah did unique was that he turned rupiya into the only legal tender which shall be used throughout his empire while in the previous cases versions of rupee were used along with various other regional currencies .
You all 10 youtubers failed to mention that it was Mahatama Gandhi's Birthday on 2nd October and these 13 vedios are a tribute to him. LOL . Maybe the boss behind the plan knows this. HAHAHA... Thank you anyway buddy for making such a beautiful vedio.
Delhi sultanate was there before Mughals. Influence of Islam in South India was triggered by Delhi sultanate which rapidly broke out to smaller Sultanate
"Aurangzeb was a traditionally pious man", very beautifully put my American accented, closeted Islamist Pakistani. Good graphics and storytelling, including a very subtle obvious glossing over the tyranny, bigotry and genocide, though ("Sufi saints brought Islam..'"). My compliments. I see a Larry David fan , here. Ok, not really, I am just projecting. To add more range and truth to your videos, why not make some videos on organized Paedophilia in Islam, at the highest levels, covering its justification in the key books and its prevalence right from 7th century Arabia (with examples of yours truly) to contemporary bacchabazi in Afghanistan. you guys know what I mean. Feeling ever so glorious now, eh. Maybe, there will be reasons to explore darkness in the Islamic underbelly. Genocide, Torture, Jaziya, yada, yada. Don't make comebacks to my jibe with Indian/Hindu cultural corruption, we Hindus have heard that enough and need to work on that. Islam is your topic, better get real and throw light on Islam, the original fascist Empire.
I usually don't really reply to comments like these but I'm bored today. First of all, my channel isn't about Islam, it's about the history of people who called themselves Muslims. Secondly, this was a brief overview of some 300 years of Mughal history and so, obviously not everything was covered. I did mention the good and the bad like how Jahangir killed a Sikh Guru and how Aurangzeb destroyed some temples. Just because I didn't cover everything, doesn't mean I'm trying to hide anything. I have never done that on my channel. You assuming that I'm a closeted Islamist because I didn't mention a few things is just like me assuming you're a Bhakt because you attacked Islam. Finally, I won't even respond to your criticism of Islam because all religions have somethings that haven't aged well. For instance, in Hinduism, you find stuff like Sati and the caste system but that is no reason to insult a religion. Finally, you'd know a fascist empire since, I assume, you live in India.
@@AlMuqaddimahYT Well, some more honesty here, shall we please - Can you really separate "people who called themselves Muslims" from Islam. Case in point: you showcase the golden age of Islam through the scientific strides made under the patronage of early Muslim rulers. Why is that video titled golden age of Islam, rather than, say, golden age of Middle East or Muslims. Cos they go together in the context of a) what's being discussed and b) the essential theme of your channel. What is Islam, or any culture, besides the practices and story of its people. I hold the same argument to those radical Hindus, who are utterly ignorant of their cultural heritage and knowledge, and perpetrate bigotry. Yes Hinduism also sucks on many accounts and didn't age well, to steal your argument. On India being fascist - Yes, understandably, fascist when seen from a pseudo-liberal kaleidoscope. But assuming your background is connected to the subcontinent, the statement is funny, given the 1400 history dominated with subjugation and coercion, I egged you to cover (even your own charts covering the Islamic family trees are laced with stories by murder incorporated, immediately after the great message of God was downloaded to Earth). If one is fed propoganda by Illuminatesque BBC or a schizophrenic PTV or has been influenced by Pakistani school curriculum (on a side note but still contextual: Murder of History in Pakistan by KK Aziz), it's hard to level and align. Let's be honest and see the degree of freedom and success Indian minorities enjoy, relative to the larger environment in Asia. It's a Hindu/Sikh/Buddhist/Dharmic environment that has allowed that degree of coexistence we enjoy. If you zoom out and pause, then the word Fascist might appear more synonymous with the essential character of your channel's central theme, rather than my country of birth. On things not aging well - Nice deflection but someone of your intellect cannot inadvertently ignore the VERY clearly stated practices from the numerous Hadees or the Holy book, recommended or prescribed. Anyhow, my sympathy lies with the followers who are more like victims of that hypnosis and not mere perpetrators. Stockholm Syndrome? The Walking Dead (bet you've heard of that show)? And of course, I understand it's not your topic here, but not for reasons you publicly state or defend. It's just uncomfortable for a sharp mind to go into. Anyhow, I should apologize since otherwise I appreciate and learn from your work; and have let my anger at the representation underplay the otherwise great quality of your storytelling, despite my disagreement with the story. You don't have to reply. I know you must be busy and can't be sooo bored that you engage wIth a fascist Indian. Peace.
@@AlMuqaddimahYT hey, I , having seen your other videos , do observe that how hard it is to be a liberal muslim, or a liberal religionist in any case. However, please do understand that due to general lack of Liberal Muslims in populace ( in India , generally ) , who can address the issues in their own faith, the non liberal Hindus (again, some of them, most Hindus are very liberal , but again, you could call me biased ) feel that they need to put "one up " against them , partly owing the the trauma , especially of destruction of temples which are the source of Hindu culture. I agree every facet of religion has its own pros and cons. It's not always easy to discuss them , but if I were to put in a way you would get it, most Hindus today either suffer from a form of PTSD or Stockholm Syndrome thanks to some cultural denigration. I am only saying this to you for the motive of asking you to empathise with us.
It's amazing-terrifying to see how people are proud of the strength of dynasties and rulers all over the world. All they wanted was power, spreading so much pain and blood, often in the name of their god. It's like I am not happy with my house and I always want a bigger one, so I turn to my neighbour and try to take his house, without even carring about suffering. Where there is no love, people make wars. Great history humans, and we're even proud of it.
Hindu nationalist took note and can point you out: The history of the rupee traces back to ancient Indian subcontinent. The mention of rūpya by Pāṇini is seemingly the earliest reference in a text about coins. The term in Indian subcontinent was used for referring to a coin. The word "rupee" is derived from a Sanskrit word "rūpya", which means "wrought silver", and maybe also something stamped with an image or a coin. As an adjective it means "shapely", with a more specific meaning of "stamped, impressed", whence "coin". It is derived from the noun rūpa "shape, likeness, image".[citation needed] Arthashastra, written by Chanakya, prime minister to the first Maurya emperor Chandragupta Maurya (c. 340-290 BC), mentions silver coins as rūpyarūpa, other types including gold coins (suvarṇarūpa), copper coins (tāmrarūpa) and lead coins (sīsarūpa) are mentioned [This claim is disputed]. Rūpa means form or shape, example, rūpyarūpa, rūpya - wrought silver, rūpa - form. Sher Shah Suri, during his five-year rule from 1540 to 1545, set up a new civic and military administration and issued a coin of silver, weighing 178 grains, which was also termed Rupiya Just a superficial overview of India wouldn't help it, you'll have to read from a transparent and unbiased mindset with no superiority complex, and then you may understand that standing up for just trashing alternative interpretation of history may lead people calling you out as Hindu nationalist.
There's a mistake in your video... The Grand Trunk (GT) Road was built by *Chandragupta Maurya* and not by Sher shah suri... he just repaired some parts of the road after years of bieng ignored..
The word of Islam had reached to India during the period of Prophet. Mohammed S.A.W(PBUH), Arab Traders spread Islam in Southern India Calicut region and also The Charman Masjid was built during Prophet's time only.
@6:50 the word ‘rupee’ itself is a derivative of ‘rupya’ which was in vogue from 400 BC (Panini, Chanakya, et al) , glad that Sher Shah adopted it :), no use taunting viewers with half knowledge
Well good for sher shah suri, but how could he invent the coin? Coins in India date back to 600 BCE. The coins were usually in silver and hence were always called rupyakam.
@@AlMuqaddimahYT imo Suri was the best muslim ruler to ever rule India. His administrative system was continued by Akbar and that's the reason for Akbar's stable governance. Suri was also a pious and good man, who was a student of the Hadith and Quran. He also was an extremely tolerant ruler and was a fierce warrior. Babur himself had told that he senses the feeling of rebellion from him.
@@mohammedfaizan9922 Hmm I do agree that he was pretty tolerant. His rule was also marked with innovations. Along with Akbar the only exception to otherwise a whole list of intolerant muslim rulers.

The Anglo Maratha and Anglo Sikh wars were fought after Tipu as well, and not to forget the Sepoy mutiny. So Tipu was not the last resistance against the Brits.
Instead of the Anglo-Mysorean wars, I think it would be more interesting to learn about the Mysore Administration under Tipu Sultan, Hyder Ali and the Wodeyars. For example, the economic policies Mysore took to become one of the most developed regions of the world with higher average incomes than Europe. Also, how Mysore tried to modernise with French technology and tried to build a world class blue water navy, star forts at manjarabad etc
@@kabrabamabubensingh535 True. None of the rulers like the Marathas, Jhansi Ki Rani etc were really freedom fighters. They were just fighting for their own Kingdom. However, we must give the Kingdom of Mysore the credit that it was one of the few Indian states to recognise the threat from British Power at a time when the Marathas, Awadh, Hyderabad, Travancore and the Rajputs were all allied with the British and were made to fight against each other and against Mysore as per the divide and rule strategy. Mysore, on the other hand, was trying to balance the power by bringing the French and Napoleon into the game.

India's Mughal Empire was a Turkic-Mongol imperial power from Uzbekistan, that ruled most of the Indian subcontinent in 16th and 17th century.[32] In 1526, Babur, a Timurid descendant of Tamerlane and Genghis Khan from Fergana Valley in Uzbekistan, swept across the Khyber Pass and established the Mughal Empire, which lasted for over 300 years, ruling 1/4 of the world's population at a time.[33]
@@warnerbro4800 They have badly insulted and abused Mongols or Mughals, and people like you are trying to take pride from people who used to abuse and insult you 🤦, when you people will understand this God knows 😂.
@6:58 is where I started to lose all the built up respect I had for this guy. I thought finally someone, trying to shed light on a complex piece of history without bias, but alas, jest and trolling remains a part of human nature.
@@AlMuqaddimahYT @6:50 the word ‘rupee’ itself is a derivative of ‘rupya’ which was in vogue from 400 BC (Panini, Chanakya, et al) , glad that Sher Shah adopted it :), no use taunting viewers with half knowledge
@@AlMuqaddimahYT GT road was only repaired by Sher Shah, while it was originally built in 300 BC, misguiding viewers and trying to instil false pride will only be harmful in the long run 😌
No. Muslims of the subcontinent (India, Pakistan, Bangladeshi) do not have Mughals to thank for the faith. There are 3 Sahabas (companions of the Prophet ﷺ) resting in India, 1 I'm the state of Kerala and 2 in the state of Tamil Nadu. And there are hundreds of Auliya-e-Ikraam (Most Noble Humans after the Ambiya or Prophets Peace Be Upon Them All) Peace Be Upon Them All, that are also resting across the 3 countries. And we have them to thank for our faith. Alhamdulillah. Mughlas were just a kingdom/dynasty that rolled the subcontinent, and happens to be Muslim. Of course there contribution cannot be denied or ignored (one who does that is ignorant), but they are not the only ones of even the primary ones we have to thank for our faith! Thanks.
@@AlMuqaddimahYT You did not even mentioned Dara Shikoh.....probably the most open minded after Akbar.... He translated some of the hindu scriptures to Persian and that's how it then got translated into German afterwards..... One correction here...The Grant Trunk Road....existed before Shershah Suri, but he modified it and extended it further....
Due to Sha Jahan's reckless spendings in countless building projects the empire was doing badly financially. Aurangzeb had to implement the austerity measures that he did, however his endless military campaigns didn't help the cause ultimately.
You may like to know more about the history of 'Rupee'. There were silver coins in Gupta period which were called 'Rupaka'. And do you know the time period of Gupta Rule? Much earlier than Sher Shah Suri!!!
These kinds of histories really make me wonder, if we had never experienced colonialism by the British where they specifically divided us by religion and culture, if India today would be more like other Asian cultures where people reach across religions and participate in practices from multiple different faiths.
In hindsight, it may have been for the good actually....else the identity of Bharat would have been largely Islamic due to the Mughal rule prevailing around the time the British entered the scene...
@@shephherd I wouldn't say so, since the majority was still hindu. Also, that is the what intermingling is. Mughal adopts hindu traditions and hindus adopt persian traditions, it would be a mixture of culture making it it's own thing. Nothing wrong with that.
Do you ever wonder why there are so many religions out there but the only religion people work so hard to prove wrong and to oppose is Islam? There are a lot of other religions which may seem wrong, and illogical too but from what I see, Islam receives the most opposition. The more you want to prove it wrong, the more right it is, isn't it? You watch Islamic videos even though you're not a muslim - and then you put comments to prove Islam wrong. What's your point?? You're not a muslim, but you read Quran, trying to prove Islam wrong. What's your point? You comment on other people's comments, trying to prove their wrong. What's your point? Why do you have to work so hard to prove Islam wrong? You can just walk away and be like, "OK whatever you know I'm just going to go on with my life. I can just leave muslims as they are, just like how I don't try to prove other buddhists or christians wrong." But you didn't do that, do you? You didn't leave muslims as they are. You go on every Islamic videos on RU-vid and work hard to prove the videos wrong. You go on each comments, and work hard to prove people wrong. What's your point? Why can't you leave Islam as it is? Why can't you leave muslims as they are? Why can't you leave us alone? Why do you have to work so hard to PROVE ISLAM WRONG? Because, the truth is, the problem lies in YOURSELF. There is that little voice inside your head, whispering to you, "Islam sounds like a true religion..." but you hated that voice! You clenched your fists, gritted your teeth, and denied it! You watched Islamic videos and you were close to be convinced, but you shake your head, clearing the images away. You read Islamic comments, and you were close to be convinced, but you bit your lip and yelled, "No!". The problem lies in yourself. YOU WANT TO PROVE ISLAM WRONG BECAUSE YOU DON'T WANT TO BE CONVINCED THAT ISLAM /IS/ THE TRUE RELIGION. Your ego, man. Your ego..
Absolutely; the Dajjal system works 24/7/365 to demonize Islam. Islam is the only logical deen and so many people refuse to think beyond the stereotypes and the Orientalist propaganda constantly bombarded in the information war against our faith.
what happened in bengal was an unintentional accident , islam arrived in bengal much before the mughals , during the delhi sultanate era bengalis were forcefully converted to islam but bengalis fearlessly resisted and still a majority of them remained non muslim . after a lot of struggle the turkic ilyas dynasty which ruled bengal for 200yrs was finally overthrown by the bengali king ganesha 1 . after becoming the king, ganesha converted his son to islam in order to please the nearby muslim kings and sufis . unlike the muslims ,india has always been an open society , indian kings continously changed religions throughout history switching between hinduism , buddhism, jainism, etc so poor ganesha thought that islam was just another religion , which would just remain personal and symbolic and wont effect his son's public life and behaviour but to his shock he was wrong . islam had completely hypnotised his son's brain and turned him into a completely different person .after realising what kind of a dangerous drug this new religion was he immediately reverted his son to hinduism but as soon as ganesha died his son converted back to islam ascended the throne with the name of jalaludin muhmadd shah. this finally led to the conversion of many to islam making it the dominant religion in bengal
6:52 What bullshit , Sherhasha introduced rupee ? Although with a channel name like "al Muqaddimah" I did not expect much. Like others of their kind, taking credit for things that they did not invent suits this channel as well... But on the off chance that you actually don't know what rupee is, its derived from an old Hindu/Sanskrit name for Silver , viz. "rupak"... Silver was more hard to find in the continent, hence it was used as currency, and this particular currency made exclusively of silver was called "रूप्यक".... from which modern Rupay word derives.
@@ornament_of_throne12346 Its okay, I am not talking about Shersha and his "numerous reforms". I am simply saying rupaya is not his. You don't need to defend something that is wrong, that typically leads to stupid and illogical arguments.
Nice...It was Chatrapati Shivaji Bhonsale and not "Bhosaale". And yes it's a fact that the guerilla warfare technique was introduced by Nizam Subedar Malik Ambar of Khadki region of Maharashtra now known as famous city of 'Aurangabad' named after Mughal emperor Aurangzeb alamgir. Malik Amber was a very skilled and able administrator and planner of the city of khadki.
@Indic Philosophy lol what a joke. malik ambar didnt even know who maharana Pratap was. by the way, you do realize maharana pratap was a coward right? just like all raj-choots.
@Indic Philosophy nah mate .malik amber created bargi giri which later evolve into gamini sutra by chatrapati shivaji and harassed mughal rulers for many generations.
@Indic Philosophy buddy I just give you one easy access source. If you want just do research about maratha invasion on Bengal. We even have lullaby about bargi here.
