In the name of Allah, prayers and peace be upon the Messenger of Allah. Greetings to you, my brothers.
Wikipedia, the free global encyclopedia, is widespread and used by millions as a source of information. If you write on the site "Death Toll," meaning a list of fatalities, it will show you a list of the most deadly wars and massacres in ancient and modern history.
Until recently, it was notable that Muslims never had a role at the top of this list. The Islamic conquests as a whole did not result in as many deaths as in any of the major ancient or modern wars. We would say to the critics of Islam and those who claim it was spread by force: Even in terms of numbers, look at what the world has suffered and continues to suffer in the absence of Islamic rule, and compare it to the justice and mercy under Islam.
We do not measure the issue by the number of deaths, but by what they were killed for and whether they deserved it or not. The conviction of the principle of jihad to enforce the dominance of Islam and prevent the ruling regimes from enslaving people is a result of the conviction that this religion is from Allah the Almighty. But even in terms of numbers, Islam was indeed a mercy to the worlds.
Suddenly, a new item appeared in this list, specifically at the top, which is "Muslim Conquest of the Indian Subcontinent" with numbers ranging between 60 and 80 million deaths! Note that this item was not originally present, not even at the end of the list.
When you click on the reference of these false numbers, a statement appears that these estimates are based on a demographic analysis, meaning not on proven facts, and that historians doubt these estimates. Of course, this statement was added to give you a false sense of neutrality after seeing the name of Muslims at the top of the list, the list of killings, and to achieve the desired psychological effect and the bad impression about Islam. Also, the general public does not click on reference numbers.
This lie has no historical witness, but it is a claim by an Indian writer who is hostile to Islam. It comes within a campaign of distortion that goes back to the past with forgery and touches on facts, to complement the series that defames Islamic personalities.
It is required, my brothers, to alert about this lie, to contact Wikipedia to complain about this addition, and to question them how this item suddenly appears at the top of the list when it was not mentioned in the list originally and for many years before.
We hope for your attention, dissemination, and raising the issue in the media. Our history is being forged, and our Islam is being distorted, and there must be a stand in loyalty to the religion of Allah the Almighty. Peace be upon you and the mercy of Allah.
