Okay, this article is just awful and content-free. I'd propose a vote for deletion, but maybe someone can make something out of it? 02:14, 10 February 2006 (UTC)

I have attempted a complete rewrite to create a stub (based on the external link in the previous version of the article). This is part of my attempted tidy up of the Jainism and Xism articles. Since I am now proposing deletion of the Judaims and Christianity articles, and the preservation of the Buddhism, Sikhism and Hinduism articles I am droppring the proposal to merge this into a genral Jainism and world religions article.

I agree that with the writer from FEB 10th 2006, that this article be deleted. Alternatively It can be expanded to fill the full scope and add nuance to the view. EG The Qutub Minar is an old Jain Temple complex( you can just see that that if you visit the place) The Jain Kingdom was Ravaged, and significant component of the jains moved south and southwest from delhi.

I have again started working on it. Please allow some time for significant progress.--Ns (talk) 07:30, 13 January 2008 (UTC)



[edit] POV

The word "invaders" in the article's title of "Muslim invaders and Jain institutions" is not NPOV. It is a POV. The Muslims have been charged with the duty & given the right to deliver God's guidance to the World by God's prevailing Qoraanic revelation: "You (Muslims) are the best of the nation which was brought forward (by God) for the people (of the world): you command the people by the virtue (of justice, equality & truth emanating from God's only true & approved Religion of Islam) & stop (them) from the vice (of injustice & oppression emanating from {misdirection of the power by the worshiping of the non-God {all besides God have not created anything: so no right to rule or legislate: if all besides God even gotten together "cannot create a fly"(Q:__:__) by} whimsical legislation (with power wrongly usurped taking wrong advantage of the God's granting of the principle of freedom-of-action granted to humanity by God so they of their own free accord qualify for His Paradise) based on power created {for free} by God by creating this Earth {& populating it & dividing it 2/3rd in ocean & 1/3rd in land in 6 continents}so created need & supply, value, commerce, resources, ability to create technology & control land & thus direct & control human life-of-test on Earth) & you believe in Alllah {the only real & true God & Creator of all}" (Q:__:__). to guide the people of the World to the correct worship of God {so they can qualify for God's Eternal Reward: His Paradise in the Hereafter} & to build & populate God's Earth with the God's rule ( or Sharia) emanating from the charge & right of vicegerency of Earth given by God to Adam at his creation (Q:2:30). so if Muslims have to run a campaign to 'crack the shell of egg of the usurping forces to reach to the yolk of the oppressed & tyrannized people' to deliver God's message & justice to liberate them from the oppression & tyranny: they are 'liberators' & not whimsical 'invaders' for worldy gain like others as suggested: their such act is only for God's sake & as a part of God's worship & in God's land & within God's rule: the Creator & Owner of the Earth & everything in it. So they are not usurpers like others but 'Sharers of the Best - the guidance from God, of God & to God which has come to them - with the World & the Humanity' acting on the Prophetic Hadeeth: "By Alllah, does not believe any of you, until he loves for his brother what he loves for himself {ie. the best}" & in this Hadith the Prophet does not qualify the word 'brother' with Islam so it extends to the brotherhood of the humanity of Adam, & the 'Returners of the usurped rule to it's rightful owner: the God': "And His Claim is the True {Claim}(Q:13{Raad}:14}& "And His Example {is} the Highest {of the Example}"(Q:__:__). It is a legal & Earth-owner -approved action. Similarly the statement in the aforesaid article; "Islam's impact on Jain and Buddhist in India has been far worse than for the majority Hindu." is absolutely untrue, biased, unsubstantiated & POV.
