Re: Most Persecuted Religions in History
you don’t get castes from living with hindus. it isn’t contagious, it is quite the opposite and non-inclusive.
when these people converted to islam from hinduism, they retained their caste based identities. this is the real reason why pakistanis (and sikhs) have castes. these are identities that don’t vanish overnight, especially when your whole society structure is based upon it.
