Heroic Hindu Resistance to Muslim Invaders
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Heroic Hindu Resistance to Muslim Invaders (636 AD to 1206 AD) is a book by Sita Ram Goel that was published in 1984. (History of Heroic Hindu Resistance to Early Muslim Invaders, 1984 ISBN 81-85990-18-2)
In this book, Goel writes in detail about the Hindu Resistance to the Muslim invaders. He also discusses in detail the book by Ram Gopal Misra (1983) on the same topic.
The Muslim invaders didn't have the same "success" in their conquests as they had in other countries. One example of the resistance of the Hindus is the case of Jaypala. The cities Kabul (Kapisa) and Zabul (Jabal) were lost by the Hindus in the tenth century and Jayapala of Udbhandapur tried to recapture Kabul in 986-987. Goel quotes Misra on Jaypala: “[He] was perhaps the last Indian ruler to show such spirit of aggression, so sadly lacking in later Rajput kings”
Goel also writes about the many failures of Mahmud of Ghazni, and describes how the Hindus were deceived by the invaders.
