these so called sufis were actually converting hindus during the Ghori-Ghazanavi period. it is said that the dargah has a cellar where a shivlinga is kept.the dargah was earlier a shiva temple. the dargah authorities are reluctant to open the cellar inspite of several requests.

Exactly, the formula for all missionary activity is traders, soldiers & priests. The Peers of Islam which modified into Sufism for simple Hindus is no different than what Christians did in Greece & Italy - change Athene for Virgin Mary or substitute saints for native gods & goddesses. Its interesting to note the work of Peer Shah Jalal who broght Islam to the Assam/Bengal region. Peer Shah Jalal is said to have gone from village to village and polluted the drinking water wells & ponds with severed cow heads. The soldier would then come and force people to convert saying they have lost Hinduism by eating beef! that is sufis peers for you !

I'm sure you were there when all of that happened. The fact is today is not the past. You folks want to dig up a past that is disputed, stir up a controversy that may take 100s or 1000s of lives... all this to what end? We are almost a billion of us now, it doesnt mean that 1000s of us can be wasted on your fantasies.
