- Just as perhaps some adventurous mountaineer should, in the
excitement of his almost impracticable ambition to scale the highest peak of
the Himalayas and to hoist his national flag there before anybody else does
it, climb on and on, and after reaching some altogether different peak
should victoriously cry out, ‘This is the very same highest peak!’ when all
at once, the seemingly highest peak should give way under the heavy load
of his ambition, being made as it really is, not of any solid rock, but of a
frozen heap of snowflakes, and the ambitious climber should topple down
and fall headlong from crag to crag into the deep ravine of destruction along
with the bits and fragments of his signal victory—in the very same way, the
Muslim ambition to establish the centralized paramount Muslim power over
the whole of India was beguiled for a while, and ultimately came to naught.
All the Asian Muslim States right from the Arabs to the Mongols invaded
India one after another and carried on for seven or eight centuries
continuously the bitterest, bloodiest and cruellest wars and at last, when in
the regime of Allauddin, practically the whole of India passed under the
Muslim sway round about the year A.D. 1310, the Muslim ambition seemed
to be almost fulfilled! But, as it is already told, with a hard knock from the
resurgent Hindu valour, the Muslim rule collapsed from the highest peak of
success attained by Sultan Allauddin and was shattered to pieces within
only seven or eight years, never to rise to that giddy height again! The
Hindu might went on increasing like the crescent moon!
Death of ‘Crazy’ Mohammad and after - This ‘crazy’ Sultan Mohammad died in A.D. 1351 and his tottering
crown with the disintegrating Sultanate of Delhi passed on to his cousin
‘Pherozshah Tughlak’. This Pherozshah’s mother was the daughter of the
Rajput King Malbhatti of Deepalpur. When Pherozshah’s father demanded
her (that Rajput Princess) in marriage, King Malbhatti flatly refused to give
her up, whereupon Pherozshah’s father marched on Malbhatti and began to
persecute the Hindus most cruelly. The princess could not bear the inhuman
sufferings of her father and her Hindu brethren in the kingdom. So, she
volunteered to marry Pherozshah’s father. However praiseworthy the
tenderness of her heart might be, it has permanently stained her father’s
family. Had she swallowed fire like some Padmini of Chitod and followed
the path of martyrdom for the sake of religion, her life and her family
tradition would both have been for ever glorified!
The Superstitious Muslims!
