==Islamic Origins==

==Before the British==

For Hundreds of years, India had been occupied by tyrannical Islamic Empires. These invaders indulged in mass killing, rape and destruction of Hindu temples. The Hindus who were not killed suffered heavy taxation(Jizya Tax), which resulted in many poor people having to convert to Islam. <ref>https://www.hinduismtoday.com/modules/smartsection/item.php?itemid=4465</ref>

Almost 60 years later, in 1821, the son of Dehlavi, Shah Abdul Aziz, appointed Syed Ahmed Barelvi to preach Islamic Jihad in India. With the support of the British, Barelvi created an army of Muslim extremists from Northern India.  

However despite Islamic extremist bigots like Dehlavi, the vast majority of Indian Muslims considered themselves as culturally Indian and not Arab. For instance, Wajid Ali Shah of the Kingdom of Awadh, was well known for composing and singing Radha Kanhaiyya Ka Kissa(Tale of Radha and Krishna).<ref>https://www.thecitizen.in/index.php/en/NewsDetail/index/9/8548/When-Lucknows-Wajid-Ali-Shah-Directed-a-Play-on-Krishna-and-Radha-in-1843</ref> Additionally, there was Mir Taqui Mir, an Urdu poet who wrote, "What do you ask Mir of his faith and religion? Since long he as put on janew(sacred thread of Hindus), sit in the temple and has given up Islam. <ref>https://books.google.com/books?id=wVr_f_gXOX4C&pg=PA47&lpg=PA47&dq=mir+taqi+mir+why+do+you+ask+what+religion+is+mir&source=bl&ots=_WxVAO6ufx&sig=ACfU3U2C67dlMwDerQ3eaJ6MSeVztugAJQ&hl=en&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjmncKyztLoAhXghHIEHTUZAYEQ6AEwA3oECAsQNg#v=onepage&q=mir%20taqi%20mir%20why%20do%20you%20ask%20what%20religion%20is%20mir&f=false</ref>
