In the Taj-ul-Ma%u2019asir by Hassn Nizam-i-Naishapuri, it is stated that when Qutb-ul- Din Aibak (1194-1210) conquered Meerat, he demolished all the Hindu temples of the city and erected mosques on their sites. In the city of Aligarh, he converted Hindu inhabitants to Islam by the sword and beheaded all those who adhered to their own religion.

If you take this moronic logic, Hindus now should kill or convert all the Muslims back to Hinduism. Talk sense..there is no greatness in Islam here.
