Indian Encounters:The Turks, The Mongols, and Islam

Nevertheless, the civilization of India and ancient India is still a society that is likely to be overlooked, has achieved great results, has had a great impact on modern society. After the non-control of the Gupta Empire in 480, the small kingdom in all areas was invaded by Turks and Mongolians, but will not dominate India without being conquered. North India is often attacked and invaded by Turks from Afghanistan to Central Asia. Muslims The Turks have decided to rule the Sultanate of Delhi, a northern state in India, which was dominated over centuries. Meanwhile, Islam gained faith in South Asia.

Eventually, Mongolians and Turks who settled in Persia, Central Asia, Russia and part of Anatolia converted to Muslims, resulting in Ilhan, Golden Hord and Chagatai · Kanate being Muslim countries. In many cases, Mongolians were assimilated by a variety of Muslim Iranians and Turks (for example, Urgöbeg, one of the largest Muslim astronomers in the 15th century, was the grandson of Timur) . When the Ottoman Empire stood up from the ash, it was thought that the golden age had ended.

Some Mongolian tribes made Islam. After the brutal invasion of Central Mongolia by Flag Khan and the battle of Baghdad (1258), Mongolian rule extended to the vast extent of almost all Muslim lands in Asia. The Mongolians destroyed the caliphs, persecuted the Muslims, and replaced them with Buddhism as the official national religion. But in 1295 Gazan 's new Iranian khan Khan converted to Muslim, and in 20 years Uzbekan (under the rule of 1313-1341) followed the Golden Horde. The Mongolians were conquered religiously and culturally, and this absorption built a new era of Mongol - Islamic complexes and formed a further expansion of Islam in Central Asia and the Indian subcontinent.

War and power struggle almost defines the history of Afghanistan. From the empire era led by Persia and Greece, Afghanistan has always been a political tug of war, from prosperous Buddhism and Islamic civilization, to the power to relocate from Arabs to Turks, Mongolians, Indians and the Persian Empire. Its history is reflected in its beautiful heritage from wonderful Buddhist monuments to prehistoric caves. Many of them are still hidden in the battle. The statue of Bamiyan (Bamyan State) was arrested for shelling and witnessed recent developments in Afghanistan. And it is now ruined because of the devastating attack by the Taliban in the beginning of 2000.
