Mariyam Posted February 8, 2012 Posted February 8, 2012 Mariyam single-handedly killed an interesting thread on history :headshake: My apologies. Please continue bickering over the extent of Ashok's greatness, colour of Ceaser's hair and the genesis of the chola puri.
Mariyam Posted February 8, 2012 Posted February 8, 2012 Aurangzeb never could go below the Deccan.The proof of that is that he is buried in Maharashtra and not Delhi. Aurangazeb died in the Deccan, near Daulatabad, and according to Islamic traditions, a body should be buried within 24 hrs of the demise. Mughalia Courier services didn't have a regional office in Daulatabad and refused to quickly parcel his body back to Agra/Delhi and he had to be buried locally. Here's a pic of his grave. http://postimage.org/image/w2p5k31cb/
Prakat Posted February 8, 2012 Posted February 8, 2012 That's a lot to get done in 24 hours. Was it contracted to a Chinese construction firm?
cybervickey Posted February 8, 2012 Posted February 8, 2012 If you are referring to the truth regarding Islamic rulers of India, well look for the very first source of evidence - the official biographies of the rulers themselves. Most Islamic rulers had a courtesan write their biography as they lived. These were generally named as -o-nama. The word o-nama = biography of. They actually mention with pride how the ruler imposed jizya on the kaafirs, how they looted their temples, subdued the farmers, seized or destroyed their buildings offices fortifications, etc. ****ing moghuls

Vijay.Sharma Posted February 8, 2012 Posted February 8, 2012 lo makkala, thikka muchu kondu kuthkolro swalpa yake ishtu jagla aadthidra neevu ibbru?
nikred Posted February 8, 2012 Posted February 8, 2012 Wrong. On both counts. Neither am I 'old school' nor a Malayali. However' date= I've been to Dubai for the shopping festival. WTF........:haha:
hari504504 Posted February 8, 2012 Posted February 8, 2012 Wrong. On both counts. Neither am I 'old school' nor a Malayali. However, I've been to Dubai for the shopping festival. That already makes you more malayali than me...:hmmm:
KhanSaab Posted February 9, 2012 Posted February 9, 2012 This thread has gone sideways since my postings!
KhanSaab Posted February 9, 2012 Posted February 9, 2012 Not a single beggar? Mughals sure knew how to run the economy. Quite interesting if true.
KhanSaab Posted February 9, 2012 Posted February 9, 2012 Which is one reason why this OP was brilliant. History is best shared when laced with a sense of humor and wit. Why so serious Khaan Saab and Vijay? Itna serious ho kar kya ukhaad loge guru? Have a sense of light discussion bhai log. Lurker jee i was enjoying the back n forth. Not so sure about Vijay jee. Hopefully he has cooled down by now. Vijay abhi tak roothe hue tu nahin ho yaar? mitti pao and move forward. Aur bhi gham hain zindagi mein bahut, message board pe gaali galonch ke siva.
Mariyam Posted February 9, 2012 Posted February 9, 2012 Didn't Yoda-esque say he never went south of the Deccan? So what is your response about? Where a person is buried has nothing to do with the extent of his/her empire. That is what I tried to explain to Yoda-esque. Akbar was buried in Agra. Doesn't mean that he didn't go to the South of Agra/ his empire didn't stretch beyond Agra. Thats all. :teeth_smile:
rabinjackman Posted February 9, 2012 Posted February 9, 2012 If the OP hadnt posted, this thread wud not have existed on ICF :((
Vijay.Sharma Posted February 9, 2012 Posted February 9, 2012 Where a person is buried has nothing to do with the extent of his/her empire. That is what I tried to explain to Yoda-esque.Shouldn't you have given the benefit of doubt to Yoda-esque for being intelligent enough to understand that? Besides, given your own post that said a Muslim's body is usually buried within 24 hours, it was actually corroborating Yoda-esque's main point that Aurangazeb could never go south of the Deccan.

Agar aap sharaafat se pesh aate toh main kyu aap ko suer kahun? Bas itni vinati hai ki aage se aap izzat se pesh aaye aur khoob respectfully behes karenge :two_thumbs_up:
anotherhawkeye Posted February 10, 2012 Posted February 10, 2012 Not a single beggar? Mughals sure knew how to run the economy. Quite interesting if true. It's not, so don't go celebrating early.

Looking forward to future bahas.
KhanSaab Posted February 14, 2012 Posted February 14, 2012 It's not' date=' so don't go celebrating early.[/quote'] You almost sound glad that there were beggars in india. Or perhaps I am mistaken.
