Every King became first a criminal, then the King. I accept that. Be it Muslim or Hindu or Christian.
Sikh Gurus were exceptions...Muslim Caliphs were exceptions. But they never established Dynastic Rules like Kings. So they were not kings.
Jazia is only 4%. So it can not be called cruelty.
Aurangzeb tried to promote spreading of Islam. But force was not used. He gave big lands and money for Temples as well.
Nearest you can go to forced conversion to Islam is that a Prisoner of war who waged war against Islam/Muslims, and who is convicted to death already, would be spared if he accepts Islam. Aurangzeb only used this clause to free prisoners of war taken in Punjab rebellion.
I do not think it amounts to Conversion by SWORD as generally painted by non Muslims
