For you this is a new thing but we Pakistanis are aware about our history.

Here are some points that you may misunderstand.

  1. mostly people of Pakistan were the followers of budhism. They already had rejected Hinduism and caste system.

  2. Islam is a new religion. And the people of all religions have adopted it.

As I said before, for you this is new thing but for us it is a very well known thing.

One more thing, in start you said “what started the war in sindh” . you have to change these words and write what started the permanent peace in Pakistan. Coz for the people and in history this is the brilliant period. And present day this is a final religion of the country.

You may also be surprised that sindh was converted to Islam before samarkand and bukhara as far as I know and it was a part of the Arab kingdom. Places have been named after that great Mujahed (Mohammed ben Qasim) from Iraq and he is considered the first Mujahed to defeat the Indians in 6/7 th centuary. Many sindhis along with makranis have ancestors from those arabs.
