  कुछ लोगों का कहना है कि उनको ब्राह्मणों ने  अपने साथ खटिया पर नहीं बैठने दिया उनके अनुसार दुनिया का सबसे बड़ा शोषण यही है भाईयो ठाकुर भी पहले ब्राह्मण के साथ खटिया पर नहीं बैठते थे  70 सालके ठाकुर 10 साल के ब्राह्मण को पायलगी करते थे  लेकिन क्या किसी ठाकुर को रोते देखा है कि ब्राह्मणों ने उनका शोषण कर लिया जब कोई बुजुर्ग ठाकुर किसी ब्राह्मण मित्र के घर जाता था और ब्राह्मण लड़का  बड़ा समझकर पैर छूने आता था तो वो पाप लग जाएगा कह कर रोक देते तो क्या इससे ठाकुरों का शोषण हो गया ठाकुरों के घर भोज में ब्राह्मण अपना खाना बनाकर खाते थे ठाकुरों का बनाया नहीं खाते थे तो क्या इससे ठाकुर छोटे और नीच हो गए ??बल्कि ठाकुरों ने सदैव उन ब्राह्मणों का सम्मान किया है जिन्होंने खुद अपना खाना बनाकर शुद्ध भोजन किया है उनको अच्छा ब्राह्मण नहीं माना जिन्होंने अपना खाना नहीं बनाया और आकर खा लिए खटिया पर ना बैठने देना भी कोई शोषण होता है?? अब देखो ब्राह्मणों ने अपने लिए क्या किया अपने लिए  धन इकट्ठा करना वर्जित कर दिया जिन ब्राह्मणों ने धान इकट्ठा किया उनको ब्राह्मण माना ही नहीं गय...

  Beggars LEGACY OF MUSLIM RULE IN INDIA   BY   K S Lal page 265 The story of the exploitation of the poor, both rural and urban, is unending. And the guiding principle of this pernicious practice was to leave the people with bare subsistence. No foreign traveller fails to notice it with disapproval if not actual disgust. It would appear that the lords and the upper classes in Turco-Mughal India derived a cynical pleasure in oppressing the poor. The result was as expected. Artisans, workers and labourers became lazy. Scarcely any one made an effort to climb the ladder to better prospects,166 so that for a job which one man would do in Holland, here passes through four mens hands before it is finished.167 Such exploitation in the Mughal period provided droves of khidmatgars to British officers and men when they established and ran their Raj in this country. Poorest of the poor Before closing, a word may be said about the exploitation of the poorest of the poor, the beg...

  TAX  MAFI  AND REWARD TO RAJAS AND KISANS WHO CONVERTED IN ISLAM LEGACY OF MUSLIM RULE IN INDIA  BY  K S Lal Page 235 to 236 Collection of Arrears We have earlier referred to the problem of collection of arrears. When agriculture was almost entirely dependent on rainfall and land tax was uniformally high , it was not possible for the peasants to pay their revenue regularly and keep their accounts ever straight with the government. The revenue used to fall into arrears. From the study of contemporary sources it is almost certain that there were hardly any remissions - even against conversion to Islam. MUSLIM RULERS WERE VERY KEEN ON PROSELYTIZATION. SULTAN FIROZ TUGHLAQ RESCINDED JIZIYAH FOR THOSE WHO BECAME MUHAMMADAN .41 Sometimes he also instructed his revenue collectors to accept conversions in lieu of Kharaj. 42 RAJAS AND ZAMINDARS WHO COULD NOT DEPOSIT LAND REVENUE OR TRIBUTE IN TIME HAD TO CONVERT TO ISLAM. 43 Bengal and Gujarat provide specific ins...

  BURNING OF LIBRARY BY MUSLIM RULERS/sultans LEGACY OF MUSLIM RULE IN INDIA   BY   K S LalPage 29 In the words of Easton, when the barbarous Turks entered into the Muslim heritage, after it had been in decay for centuries, did Islam destroy more than it created or preserved.81 For instance, Ibn Sina had died in Hamadan in 1037 and in 1150 the Caliph at Baghdad was committing to the flames a philosophical library, and among its contents the writings of Ibn Sina himself. In days such as these the Latins of the East were hardly likely to become scholars of the Muhammadans nor were they stimulated by the novelty of their surroundings to any original production.82 Similar was the record of the Turks in India. No universities were established by Muslims in medieval India. They only destroyed the existing ones at Sarnath, Vaishali, Odantapuri, Nalanda, Vikramshila etc. to which thousands of scholars from all over India and Asia used to seek admission. Thus, with the coming ...

  MUSLIM LEARNT SCIENCE AND ASTROLOGY FROM HINDUS LEGACY OF MUSLIM RULE IN INDIA   BY   K S LalPage 28 In the early years of Islam the Muslims concentrated mainly on translating and adopting Creek scholarship. Aristotle was their favourite philosopher. Scientific a nd mathematical knowledge they adopted from the Greeks and Hindus. This was the period when the Arabs imbibed as much knowledge from the West and the East as possible. In the West they learnt from Plato and Aristotle and in India Arab scholars sat at the feet of Buddhist monks and Brahman Pandits to learn philosophy, astronomy, mathematics, medicine, chemistry and other subjects. Caliph Mansurs (754- 76) zeal for learning attracted many Hindu scholars to the Abbasid court. A deputation of Sindhi representatives in 771 C.E. presented many treatises to the Caliph and the Brahma Siddhanta of Brahmagupta and his KhandaKhadyaka, works on the science of astronomy, were translated by Ibrahim al-Fazari into Arabic ...

  PUNISHMENT TO BRAHMAN   FOR WORSHOPING HIND GOD AND     BURNING HIM BY MUSLIM   SULTAN LEGACY OF MUSLIM RULE IN INDIA   BY   K S Lal Page 20 A report was brought to the Sultan (Firoz Tughlaq 1351-88) that there was in Delhi an old Brahman (Zunar dar) who persisted in publicly performing the worship of idols in his house ; and that the people of the city, both Musalmans and Hindus, used to resort to his house to worship the idol. This Brahman had constructed a wooden tablet (muhrak), which was covered within and without with paintings of demons and other objects. On days appointed, the infidels went to his house and worshipped the idol, without the fact becoming known to the public officers. The Sultan was informed that this Brahman had perverted Muhammadan women, and had led them to become infidels. (These women were surely newly converted and had not been able to completely cut themselves off from their original faith). An order was accordingly ...
