People of Indian subcontinent have had the best record of dealing with Islamic agression. Once a hub of Hindu/Bouddha culture extending from the Black Sea and Urals in Russia (where recently Vishnu Pratimas have been found) to Korea. Hindu/Buddhist traditions successfully survived Islamic aggression.
Ironically, Hindus have also lost the largest area and population to Islam (both by forced conversion and death).
Our legacy survives now only in India and Nepal and in the Islands of Bali in Indonesia.
Nearly, 80% of the world Muslim population is the progeny of Hindu ancestry. Almost all concentrated in Bangladesh Indonesia, Pakistan, Afghanistan and India. That has been the result of 1300 years slavery and political subjugation. According to Will Durant, the great American historian, the only reason why Hindu Dharma (includes all Panths from Buddhism to Sikhism) survived, was because of our intellectual and philosophical superiority to Islam. Inspite, of relentless persecution, murder and unbearable taxes (Jazia), Islam could not convert South Asia.
Unfortunately, many of our brothers/sisters are part of Islam and few have had the courage to get out of its grip. A few famous exceptions like Tasleema Nasreen, Anwar Sheikh (Aniruddha Gyanshikha), Dara Sikoh had the powerful intellect and courage to leave Islam inspite of facing death as prescribed by the Quran.
It is important that free individuals and humanists around the world take up responsibility to help individuals who want to quit Islam.
As educated, Hindus/Sikhs who are relatively informed about our painful past, it is our responsibility to accept our brave brothers who choose return back to Hindu Dharma.
