Frases de Aurangzeb
página 3

Abu Muzaffar Muhiuddin Muhammad Aurangzeb Alamgir , más conocido como Aurangzeb, fue emperador del Imperio mogol entre 1658 y 1707 y está considerado como el último de los "grandes mogoles". Es también una de las figuras más controvertidas de la historia de la India.

Al contrario que sus predecesores, Aurangzeb llevó una vida austera y piadosa. Su estricta adhesión al Islam y la Sharia fueron los pilares de su reinado. Abandonó la tolerancia religiosa de sus predecesores y, durante su reinado, se destruyeron numerosos templos hinduistas y muchos indios, presionados, se convirtieron al Islam.

Aurangzeb usó la estrategia militar para expandir y consolidar el imperio mogol, pero a un precio muy alto. Su gobierno provocó numerosas revueltas que reprimió durante toda su vida pero que estallaron y cambiaron por completo la India después de su muerte. Wikipedia

Aurangzeb: Frases en inglés

“As his blessed nature dictated, he was characterized by perfect devotion to the rites of the Faith; he followed the teaching of the great Imam. Abu Hanifa (God be pleased with him!), and established and enforced to the best of his power the five foundations of Islam'Through the auspices of his hearty endeavour, the Hanafi creed (i. e., the Orthodox Sunni faith) has gained such strength and currency in the great country of Hindustan as was never seen in the times of any of the preceding sovereigns. By one stroke of the pen, the Hindu clerks (writers) were dismissed from the public employment. Large numbers of the places of worship of the infidels and great temples of these wicked people have been thrown down and desolated. Men who can see only the outside of things are filled with wonder at the successful accomplishment of such a seemingly difficult task. And on the sites of the temples lofty mosques have been built.”
