The story of extremism , Ghazwa E Hind ,

Fact or Fiction.

Abu Hayan Saeed

Hate should be based on fact but not on fictional stories because fictional stories make people stupid.

Ghazwa Hind, fact or fiction? Let's know what the facts are.

Did you know that in 2025, the population of Muslims in India is now 220 million, which is likely to be more than 700 million in 2099.

If we assume that the end of time will come after a thousand years, then the expected population of Muslims in India will be around 300 million. The question is how will the 300 million Muslims of India withstand the attack of a few thousand wandering and corrupt goons.

They will destroy these goons and this will be the drop scene of the stupid Ghazwa Hind... Ridiculous stories and the insensitive psychological fool followers of these stories!!

After a thousand years, the present India will have been divided into 104 Hindu, 32 Muslim, 4 Sikh, 5 Buddhist and 10 independent and independent states. So which India will this army of a few thousand Mawlid robbers attack? Is there any knowledge of geography? Hundreds of new countries will have come into existence in the thousands of kilometers between the land of Palestine and India. This army will probably ride on "Buraq" and these thousands of Buraqs will bring the Mahdi with them or will Jesus (peace be upon him) bring his army of Buraqs with him? Anything can happen? It is a world of possibilities, sir.

Let us see some dubious traditions related to this subject in different books of Hadith which are against each other and which have neither head nor foot. A dug mountain turned out to be a rat…

In the Sahih Satta, only Sunan An-Nasa'i # 3175 ~ 3177 has mentioned these traditions.

I was informed by Muhammad bin Abd Allah bin Abd al-Rahim, who said: Asad bin Musa said: The rest of the hadith, he said: On the authority of Abu Bakr Al-Zubaidi, on the authority of his brother Muhammad bin Al-Walid, on the authority of Luqman bin Aamir, on the authority of Abd al-Ala bin عدِيٍّ Al-Bahrani, on the authority of Thawban, the Messenger of God, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, said: The Messenger of God, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, said. And peace be upon him: two groups of my nation, may Allah save them from the fire: a group that will invade India, and a group that will be with Isa ibn Peace be upon Mary .

Thawban (may Allah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: “There are two groups among my Ummah whom Allah has protected from Hell. One group will be the one who will invade India and the other group will be the one who will be with Jesus, the son of Mary, peace and blessings be upon him.”

Hafiz Ibn Kathir (may Allah have mercy on him) said: “The Muslims invaded India in 44 AH during the reign of Muawiyah and some of the events that will be explained below. He was also attacked by Mahmud ibn Sabqatgin, the ruler of Gaza, who conquered India around 400 AH. He invaded India with his army, where he killed thousands of people, took prisoners and seized booty. Mahmud Ghaznavi’s Afghan soldiers raped and abducted thousands of women. He entered Somnath where he broke the largest idol and looted several tons of gold buried under the idol.

A detailed reference with the Arabic text (matan) of the above hadiths

Hadith No. 1:

Yahya ibn Ishaq narrated to us, Al-Bara’a, on the authority of Al-Hasan, on the authority of Abu Hurayrah, who said: My honest friend, the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, told me that he said: “In this nation there will be a call to the chain of transmission.” And India, if I capture it, then I will be martyred, and if I mention a word, then I will return, and I am Abu Hurayrah, the freedman, who has freed me from the Fire.

It was narrated from Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) promised us that we would conquer India, so if I were martyred, then I would be among the best of the martyrs, and if I returned, then I am Abu Hurayrah, who is safe from the Fire.

Until they come to their kingdoms chained, God will forgive their sins, so they will serve while they serve and they will be found. Abu Hurairah said: If I realized that the invasion was carried out on all sides by me and I conquered it, So he won May Allah protect us and save us, so I am Abu Huraira the Liberator. When I heard from him, I told him that I have accompanied you, O Messenger of God. He said: So the Messenger of God, may God's prayers and peace be upon him, smiled. وَضَحِكَ Heytuk, «Thummat»

India will be conquered by the Mughals, and what is between the East and the West will be opened for them, and their abode will be in India until the appearance of Dajjal.

This hadith was narrated from Abu Hurairah with three chains of transmission.

The first chain of transmission was narrated by Jabr bin Ubaydah from Abu Hurairah.

Imam Ahmad narrated it in Musnad (12/28) and others. This is a weak chain of transmission because of Jabr bin Ubaydah. No one narrated it from him except a narrator named Sayyar bin Al-Hakam and someone else narrated it from him. He was not considered trustworthy. Rather, he was mentioned only by Ibn Hibban in his trustworthy narrations. So Imam Dhahabi said: It is not known who he was, and the narration is strange.

( 2 / 59 Tahdhib Tahdhib)

The second chain of narration is from Al-Bara' bin Abdullah Al-Ghanwi, from Al-Hasan Al-Basri, from Abu Hurayrah, who said:

My close friend, the truthful, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said to me: "An expedition will be sent from this Ummah to Sindh and India." If I live to see it and am martyred, then it is good and well, and if I - and he said something - return, then I am Abu Hurayrah who has been freed, I will be ransomed from the Fire.

Narrated by An-Nasa'i in Sunan (no. 3173) and Ahmad in Musnad (14/419). But this is also a weak chain of narration because of Al-Bara' bin Abdullah Al-Ghanwi, about whom the critics unanimously agreed. It is agreed that his hadith is a weak hadith, as it says in Hadith al-Tahdhib (1/427). Furthermore, there is a gap in the chain of transmission between al-Hasan al-Basri and Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him).

The third chain of transmission is from Hashim ibn Saeed, from Kinanah ibn Nabih, from Abu Hurayrah.

It was narrated by Ibn Abi Asim in al-Jihad (no. 247), but it is also a weak chain of transmission because of Hashim ibn Saeed, about whom Ibn Ma’een said: He is nothing. Abu Hatim said: His hadith is weak. See: Tahdhib al-Tahdhib (11/17).

The fourth chain of transmission is from Safwan ibn Amr, from one of his sheikhs, from Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him), who said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said - and you mentioned India - then he said: "Your army will invade India and Allah will grant them victory, until they put their kings in chains. They will be bound, and Allah will forgive their sins. Then they will return and when they return they will find Ibn Maryam in Ash-Sham (Syria). Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: If I live to see this expedition, I will sell everything I have and join it. Then if Allah grants us victory and we return, I will be Abu Hurayrah (safe from the Fire of Hell). And when we return to Ash-Sham, we will find Isa ibn Maryam there. Then I will make sure that I come close to him and say to him: O Messenger of Allah, I was with you. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) smiled and said: “Possible, impossible.” Very difficult?

It was narrated by Nu’aim ibn Hammad in al-Fitn (p. 409). Its chain of transmission includes a narrator who was vague about his narration from Abu Hurayrah. His chain of transmission also includes Baqiyyah ibn al-Walid who is a Mudallis and he It is narrated by saying “an”.

The third hadith is

“Some people from my ummah will invade India and Allah will enable them to conquer it until they chain the kings of India and Allah will forgive their sins. Then they will return to Sham (Shaam) and they will find Jesus, the son of Mary, in Sham.”

This was narrated by Nu’eem bin Hammad in al-Fitn (p. 399). He said: Waleed narrated to us, he narrated from Safwan bin Amr, who narrated from him, he narrated from the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him).

This chain of narration is clearly weak because Waleed bin Muslim narrated it by saying “an”. This is also

It seems to be a messenger, because there is no indication in it whether Safwan bin Amr (may Allah be pleased with him) heard it from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) or whether he was a companion.

So in summary, the hadith of Thawban about the conquest of India is false.

As for the hadith of Abu Hurairah, most of its chains of transmission are weak.

Sunan Nasa'i hadith number 3175 

Ahmad bin Uthman bin Hakeem told us, he said: Zakaria bin Adi said: We had Ubaid Allah bin Amru, on Zayd bin Abi Anisa, on the road. He said: And Hushaym told us, on the authority of Siyar, on the authority of Jabr bin Ubaidah, and Ubayd Allah said, on the authority of Jubair, on the authority of Abi Hurairah, said: We promised the Messenger of God, may God's prayers and peace be upon him, to invade India, so if he realized it, he would spend on it. Soul And my wealth, if I am killed, you will be among the best of martyrs, and if I return, I will be Abu Hurairah the liberated one.

Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) said that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) promised us (Muslims) that we would be invaded by India, that is, he predicted that if the invasion of India were to take place during my lifetime, I would participate in it with my life and wealth. If I am killed, I will be among the best of martyrs, and if I return alive, I will be called Abu Hurairah the liberated one.

Here I am presenting a very contradictory and ridiculous hadith about Thawban (may Allah be pleased with him) which is in Musnad Ahmad. Hadith No. 21357

Musnad Ahmad Hadith No. 21357

On the authority of our partner, on the authority of Ali bin Zayd, on the authority of Abi Qalaba, on the authority of Thawban, who said: The Messenger of God, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, said. If you see the black angels that have come from Khurasan, then lose them, for in them is the Caliphate of Allah, the Mahdi.

It is narrated from Hazrat Thawban (RA) that the Holy Prophet (PBUH) said: When you see black flags coming from the direction of Khorasan, join them, for among them will be the Caliph of Allah, Imam Mahdi (RA).

I am presenting another very contradictory and ridiculous hadith related to Thawban (RA), which is Sunan An-Nasa'i Hadith No. 3177.

I was informed by Muhammad bin Abd Allah bin Abd al-Rahim, who said: Asad bin Musa said: The rest of the hadith, he said: On the authority of Abu Bakr Al-Zubaidi, on the authority of his brother Muhammad bin Al-Walid, on the authority of Luqman bin Aamir, on the authority of Abd al-Ala bin عدِيٍّ Al-Bahrani, on the authority of Thawban, the Messenger of God, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, said: The Messenger of God, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, said. And peace be upon him: two groups of my nation, may Allah save them from the fire: a group that will invade India, and a group that will be with Isa ibn Peace be upon Mary .

Thawban (may Allah be pleased with him) said that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: “There are two groups among my Ummah whom Allah has protected from Hell. One group will be the one who will invade India and the other group will be the one who will be with Jesus, the son of Mary.”

The Holy Quran has strongly denied the return of Jesus (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) in Surah Al-Imran, verse 5, and Surah Al-Ma’idah, verse 117.

Surah Al-Imran verse 55

Allah said, O Jesus, I am the one who passed away and raised you up and purified you from those who disbelieved and made those who follow you above you. Those who disbelieved until the Day of Resurrection, then until you return, so I will judge between you about what you differed about.

“I have decided to cause you to die and raise you up to Myself and purify you from your disbelief and make those who follow you superior to them until the Day of Resurrection. Then you will all come to Me, and I will judge between you concerning that in which you used to differ.” (3:55)

In Surah Al-Ma’idah, the Quran narrates a conversation between Allah and the Messiah that will take place on the Day of Resurrection. In it, Allah will ask him about the true misguidance of the Christians, “Did you teach them to take me and my mother as gods besides Allah?” In response, he will say, among other things, “I told you what You commanded me to do, and I was with them as long as I was watching what they were doing.” But when you picked me up, I don't know what they made and what they spoiled. After that, you were their caretaker. 

Surah Maida verse 117

I did not say to them except that I commanded them to worship Allah, your Lord and your Lord. So when you died, you were a rival to them, and you were a martyr to everything.

“I told you what You commanded me to do: Worship Allah, my Lord and your Lord. I was a witness to them while I was among them, but when You took me up, You were the Watcher over them, and You are a Witness over all things.”

(Al-Ma’idah 5:117)

All the hadiths do not prove any invasion of India. The hadiths attributed to Thawban (may Allah be pleased with him) never mention Khorasan.

Lashkar, sometimes Imam Mahdi, sometimes Jesus (peace be upon him), sometimes black/dark green flags etc. All these are just baseless stories like fairy tales.

From the apparent meaning of the Hadith of Thawban and the Hadith of Abu Hurairah, all the Hadiths are against each other - the mention of the conquest of India will be at the end of the time near the end of the world. What will the Muslims gain from this?

One logic here is that I assumed that the end of the world will happen after a thousand years. After a thousand years, the population of Muslims in India will be 3 billion, so how will the 3 billion Muslims of India tolerate the attack of thousands of Mawlid goons attacking their homeland?

Mahmud Ghaznavi Afghan attacked India several times for loot and each time looted tons of gold from temples and killed thousands of people, Mahmud's attacks have nothing to do with Islam, he was a looter and a robber.

As I am writing these lines in 2025, it is not wise for Muslims to spread violence in the name of Islam.

Therefore, it is important to approach this topic with caution, wisdom and responsibility, avoiding extremism, fanaticism and violence in the name of Islam. We do not need heart-warming hypothetical stories.
