The Ghazwa e Hind has been going on for fourteen centuries, as The History of Jihad shows in detail. Now there are Muslims in all walks of life who wish to revive it.
“‘We will first capture Kashmir and then invade India from all sides for Ghazwa e Hind’: Pakistani cricketer Shoaib Akhtar in viral video,” OpIndia, December 21, 2020:
For many Indians, Pakistani cricketer Shoaib Akhtar is among the few saner voices and pacifists that have called for a lasting peace between the two countries. Akhtar’s effusive views on the Indian cricket team has only served to cement his personality as someone who is willing to shed the decades-long antagonism between the two neighbours and proceed on the path of peaceful coexistence.
Akhtar, who was popularly called as The Rawalpindi Express, was also feted by the Indian media after he raised discrimination meted out to Danish Kaneria, a Pakistani Hindu cricketer, by the rest of the Pakistani cricket team on account of his religion. The cricketer had recently invoked humanity over religion and country while appealing India to provide ventilators to Pakistan in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic.
However, cynics within the Indian society have cautioned that Shoaib Akhtar’s charm offensive for the Indian cricket team and the country at large is just a smokescreen, a ruse intended to remain in good books with the BCCI so that when Pakistani sports presenter and coaches are allowed to be a part of the IPL, he is amongst the first to land a lucrative deal.
Besides, many others also claim that Pakistani fast bowler makes glowing remarks for India and the Indian cricketers to attract following from the Indian YouTube users on his channel.
Pakistani cricketer Shoaib Akhtar promotes the Islamic doctrine of ‘Ghazwa-e-Hind’
However, an undated video of Pakistani cricketer Shoaib Akhtar that is now doing the rounds on the internet has shattered all the carefully constructed myth about his favourable outlook towards India. In the video, which is at least a year old, Shoaib Akhtar is seen endorsing the Islamic supremacist fantasy of ‘Ghazwa-e-Hind’.
In an interview with Samaa TV, Shoaib Akhtar says, “It is written in our scriptures that Ghazwa e Hind will take place. The river in Attock will be coloured red twice with blood. Forces from Afghanistan will reach till Attock. Then after that forces will rise from Shamal Mashriq, different contingents will arrive from Uzbekistan etc…this refers to Khorasan, a historical region which extended till Lahore. Later those forces will conquer Kashmir, and then, inshallah, they will march onwards (to the rest of India).”
Shamal Mashriq is an Urdu reference for the geographical region which is just north of the Arabian peninsula.
Ghazwa-e-Hind: An Islamist doctrine forecasting the dominance of Islam over India
It is pertinent to note that the Islamist doctrine endorsed by Shoaib Akhtar is often cited by terrorists to justify their attacks in India. The Islamist terror attacks on India take place under the banner of Ghazwa-e-Hind. Radicals in Pakistan are trained and brainwashed with the concept of Ghazwa-e-Hind, to prepare them for suicide missions in India and legitimise their jihad against India.
The term Ghazwa-e-Hind or a holy raid of India has been used by the Pakistani terrorists against India for decades. The concept of Ghazwa-e-hind roots from several works of Islamic literature named Hadiths. The doctrine prophesizes a pitched battle between Hindus and Muslims before (qayamat), resulting in a decisive victory of Muslims over Hindu India.
As per the prediction, the battle to the end will start in modern day Syria, with forces marching towards India. Islamic armies carrying black flags will supposedly come from Khorasan and conquer India to turn it into an Islamic state….
Infidel says
Shouldn’t the Pakis start worrying about the Chinese ghazwa – dunno the Mandarin term for it – of their own country that is in the process of happening?
But yeah, that’s why jihadist elements in India should be instantly deported to Pakistan, or killed if Pakistan refuses to take them

It’s good to see that with the progression of the 21st century, Islam has become so mellow about all the hot button issues those imbeciles have been ranting about for the last 1400 years.
Scott says
The picture above doesn’t make this guy look like TOO much of a maniac.
Fred Middleton says
The Muslims already invaded India, and in a very bloody and destructive way, but the Hindus got most of it back.
Vladimir says
Yes, the Mughal Dynasty conquered almost all of the Indian Subcontinent, but by then began to slowly crumble until the British came and finished them off.
gravenimage says
True, Fred and Vladimir.
peter says
But Congress white washed Indians to believe that these muslim invaders were angels and masters . In fact most muslims are addressed as “Sahib” means master . Hollywood did it’s own bit and still doing it’s best to misinform the public about Moghuls with movies glorifying Akbhar and other muslim, rulers while down playing many Hindu kings like Shivaji and Rana Pratap singh who fought valiantly against muslims . The deceit goes on but the internet has helped in stemming this tide .
Jeanne says
Jihad invasion is definitely not of God, but of the devil. Why does the LEFT promote Islam?
Vladimir says
Because the Left is of the Devil. His kingdom is not divided, and everything the wicked do, everywhere and in every way serves to build up the one world antichrist religion of the future, which is Islam.
Infidel says
Their geography is as great as Imran Khan’s (who once in a press conference w/ Iran’s Rouhani, claimed that Japan and Germany have a border)
Khorasan, for those who are wondering, was historically a geographic area that included North East Iran, West Afghanistan and Turkmenistan. It included cities like Mashhed and Nishabor in Iran, Herat and Balkh in Afghanistan, and Merw and Nisa (today Ashgabat) in Turkmenistan.
Extending the definition to include places like Kabul, Peshawar, Kandahar, Lahore… is just fantasy on their part. As for Pakistan’s cricketers, looks like they are just a stepping stone to future jihadists, be it Imran Khan, Javen Miandad, Shoaib Akhtar or Sarfraz Nawaz

tim gallagher says
Infidel, did that really happen, did Imran Khan actually say that Japan and Germany have a common border? That has to be the dumbest thing I have ever heard anyone say, well, right up there with the dumbest, and that man is the Prime Minister of Pakistan. He must have been hit by too many cricket balls over the years and even the helmets they wear couldn’t protect his brain cells. Japan and Germany sharing a border. An absolutely staggering level of ignorance.
Infidel says

tim gallagher says
Thanks for that, Infidel. Well there you go. Amazing that such an ignorant clown should be Prime Minister of Pakistan. I liked the map they showed in the report which showed very clearly just how far apart Japan and Germany are. Pakistan does always seem to be a really horrible country with continually rioting mobs baying for blood, etc, so such an ignorant leader sort of makes sense for such a country.
gravenimage says
Khan also doesn’t appear to realize that Nazi Germany and Japan were *allied* during WWII–he seems to think they were adversaries. Pretty sad.
Arasu says
It was an obvious slip of the tongue, or else an unintentional lapse on his part.
Imran Khan graduated from Oxford University, is well travelled, and is far from “ignorant” as many have been quick to label him.
Don’t get me wrong, I am no fan of Imran Khan, or the Islamic Republic of Pakistan, or Ghazwa-e-Hind. However, we do not need beat the man for making an unintended mistake.
Infidel says
He was in Oxford in the same way that a lot of athletes in the US who are pretty illiterate – get straight ‘F’s – are in their universities – on a sports scholarship. He was in Oxford as a part of their cricket team. Reading about him, he majored in Philosophy, Politics and Economics, but non of that is in evidence in the way he’s run his country into the ground
Also, for unintended mistakes, people correct them, either immediately, or later when they realize it. Not once did Imran Khan mention France in its relations w/ Germany: he kept saying ‘Germany and Japan’. It’s like people these days who say ‘Soviet’ when they mean ‘Russian’, talking about the country in the post Cold War era
Wellington says
I don’t care a rat’s ass what is written in Islamic scriptures respecting where truth ultimately resides but I do care that fools and worse aplenty like this joker, the subject of this article, care.
Those who believe in malevolent nonsense should be taken at their word and not dismissed. Best to be prepared for evil rather than ignore or excuse it.
GreekEmpress says
Wellington.
You said it a lot better than I could. I don’t know a surah from a hadith, and I don’t care to. I’m just following what these malevolent nonsense evil-doers do with their Islamic scriptures.
And yes—be prepared for evil rather than ignore or excuse it. Those who bury their heads in the sand usually end up getting their asses kicked. (Forgive my language, it’s been one of those days, and the Ouzo is calling.)
Wellington says
Thanks for your reply, GreekEmpress. As for you language, there is nothing wrong with it.
BTW, haven’t had Ouzo in a long time—overdue I think. Always liked it when I had some.
James Lincoln says
Wellington,
I’ve never even heard of an “Ouzo” – I had to look it up.
Where can you buy some?
Wellington says
James: I would think most liquor stores would have it. I first tasted it when I went to Greece as an undergraduate. It’s anise based and tastes very similar to licorice. Not bad, not bad at all, though way down I’m a beer drinker first and foremost.
gravenimage says
Most well-stocked liquor stores in the US carry Ouzo.
Jaladhi says
Dream on!! Ha, ha, ha,…you can’t even keep your country in control and you are going to capture India. Go capture Bangladesh which you lost in 1971!! Delusion galore of every Pakistani Muslim!!
Infidel says
They’re battling their own rebels in SInd and Balochistan who don’t seem to like their new Chinese overlords!
Rob says
Pakistan can’t even host visiting cricket teams from other playing nations. One team – Sri Lanka I think, was ambushed in their bus on the way to a game about 10 years ago. Although I think another team has scheduled a tour after assurances from Pak authorities.
gravenimage says
Here’s that terrible story:
“2009 attack on the Sri Lanka national cricket team”
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2009_attack_on_the_Sri_Lanka_national_cricket_team
What barbarians. Pakistan had to play all of their Cricket games as “away games” for years after that, as no one–understandably–wanted to travel there.
Rob says

Exactly the servile approach as Jacinda Ardern (NZ).

Ha, ha,…If and when Qayamat comes it will spell doom to Muslims and not to Hindus!
Infidel says
The events they had written about had come and gone – be it Mahmoud of Ghazni, Tamerlane, Babur, Nader Shah and Ahmad Shah Abdali. India was invaded from Central Asia 5 times in 800 years. However, since then, let’s look at the countries that used to attack them:
– Iran (for Nader Shah) – a basketcase, barely holding on
– Afghanistan (for Mahmoud of Ghazni, Babur, Ahmad Shah Abdali) – another basketcase, is trying to avoid a civil war once our troops leave. Forget about repeating their adventures
– Uzbekistan (for Timur and Babur) – conquered by the Russians in the 19th century, and Islam heavily dampened in that country. Even today’s regime does not tolerate jihadists. Jihadists might wanna regain control of Uzbekistan and then decide how to take on other countries
As for an invasion starting from Syria, the only thing that ever came close to that was Mohammed bin Qasim in the 8th century, when he invaded Sind. He conquered Sind, but was repelled when he tried invading Rajputana
Mohammedans need to stop confusing history w/ prophecies
Halaku says
Interesting that all these Ghazwa e Hinds after the 12th century have been by foreign Muslims against the Muslims of India, in which Indian Muslim Rulers were defeated and millions of Indian Muslim soldiers killed.
It is a tribute to the brain twisting power of Islam (and the lQ of Pakistanis) that despite the plunder and massacres by the foreign Ghazi looters, Pakistani (ex Indian) Muslims are eagerly waiting for outsiders to again come and further destroy their lives.

……………
What a thug. Can you imagine non-Muslim athletes threatening other nations like this? *Ugh*.
And of course Muslims have been invading India and murdering Hindus and Sikhs and other Infidels there for centuries–but this creep like so many pious Muslims does not want this to stop.

Gbox says
Didn’t muslims spill enough blood during the conquest of India? 80 million Hindus were slaughtered between the 10th and 15th centuries, during what historians called history’s bloodiest event. Easily history’s worst genocide. But they are still not satisfied.
gravenimage says
And Muslims won’t be satisfied, until they have converted, driven out, or murdered the rest of the Hindus–and Sikhs, and Jains, and Christians–in India.
OLD GUY says
He is just pointing out the true ideology of islam and that is a world wide dictatorship controlled by the muslims/islamic leadership. POWER is the most important thing in Islam and always has been for centuries. The revival of the muslim/islamic dream came with oil dollars pouring into their poor countries. Instead of using those oil dollars to improve their citizens lives their dictatorship leaders use it to disrupt and destroy.
