forget the past and move on

Aurangazeb was a tyrant how can one kill his own father shahjahan aurangazeb had done that and yes he was very brutel to people not following islam, but I think that was the worst period of mughal empire but then the benefits of Islam in India was suffism and i think that has been the best for India and I think the whole world needs suffism, right across middle east pakistan, afghanistan and fighting on name of religion is ignorance let it be a hindu or a muslim or any religion I think we should fight for humanity and lets not talk about taking revenge, jews were put through worse times but for them to hate every german in todays world will be bad and they dont do it, so why should we blame muslims for auranagzeb just rememeber there were all once a hindu and today they have their own faith thats all we need to accept that and not justify any voilence let it be in gujarat

Rock Water, if we open the ancient indian history we find lot of kings who ascended the throne after patricidal or fatricidal wars. That means killing their brothers and father.



Our Greate Ashok killed his brothers and sent his father to jail. So did do Kansa who imprisoned his father and sister. I can quote numerous examples from Ancient India uptill 18th century. And all these were hindu rulers. So where is our tolerance as a hindu. Lets not blame Islam for Aurangzebs misdoings

We never endorse doing on Kansa or Ashoka for that matter. We are against everyone who kill his brother/father for power.

then you should be against Kansa and Ashoka too and numerous other mythological figures and later kings. Because they too killed their brothers and father
