Why Sindhis were never Indians or Hindus in history

[HariPrasad]

This is a Greek map of the world

India is written after the Indus

The whole Sindh province is Gedrosia and Ariana

I do not see Pakistan anywhere in map.

 

[Sindhi(Indus)]

I do not see Pakistan anywhere in map.

Well I see India and its near the ganges east from the Indus River

 

[Daghalodi]

And Jule Lal is believed to be the incarnation of loard VIshnu who is one of the three main gods of Hindus.

Any proof of your claim??

 

[SorryNotSorry]

Why don’t you get over your hang ups- just identify as a Pakistani Sindhi instead of taking us on a journey through time to eventually prove nothing. Another case of identity crisis.

 

[Whirling_dervesh]

India and Hindu are derived from 'sindh' that says it all really.

Why do you think the hindutva brigade are so desperate to claim linkage to this ancient land.

In all their arguments they are frothing in their mouths like diseased camels desperately claiming this land as theirs and pakistanis are giving it to them on a plate...

Sindhis being darker than other Pakistanis and looking like indians is not true. This is because most Pakistanis are not familiar with Sindhis and base their opinion on flood victims/sterotypes/dirt poor sun burnt people. I have been to Sindh and many Sindhis are lighter than many Punjabis also many Sindhis resemble Balochs.

 

[DESERT FIGHTER]

I heard in a documentary where a Hindu claims that Sindhi Hindus aren't Hindus and that Sindhis worship their own deity called "Johle LaL". I know presently it is attributed to Saint Lal Shahbaz Qalandar but It seems like it is connected to practices of old Sindhis.

LK Advani wasn’t considered a hindu by BJP.

Sindhis are handsome people.
And the sun is harsh.

Sindh was Hindu.
It's now as Islamic as the ME.

Be proud that you evolved. But keep the ethnic pride aside.

I don't understand the need of Pakistani secular elite to identify themselves with race.

You are Muslims. Your nation was founded on Islam. What your past was should not be of such significance. Your present faith is what should define your identity. Try to be comfortable with it.

Is he?

A muslim Sufi Saint is your God?

Sindh was Buddhist.
Even people like Richard Burton has written about them.

Sindh as a country/state is older than any other in south asia.

 

[Pan-Islamic-Pakistan]

They are referred in Alif Laila wa Laila (1001 nights) as Sindabadis (person of Sindh.) The story takes place in Basra, and it is of one Sindabadi speaking to another Sindabadi of his adventures at sea.

Sindh is one of the most ancient and important regions of the ancient world. Sindhi was world-renowned for its riches and unique culture, seafarers and navigators.

Mohenjo daro

Sindhi culture is a direct derivative of the IVC, and we even have the Priest King statue of Mohenjo daro wearing an ajrak.

This region was also connected to the Umayyad Khalifat in the beginning of the Muslim conquest and the first to embrace Islam in modern day Pakistan.

You are Muslims. Your nation was founded on Islam. What your past was should not be of such significance. Your present faith is what should define your identity. Try to be comfortable with it.

So Arabs should forget their pre-Islamic past while Prophet Muhammad saws praised the nobility of Arab culture?

Did you know Abu Bakr RA was his historian and had knowledge of the history of all the Arab tribes, hence the Prophet saws took him along on every diplomatic mission.

The same Prophet Muhammad saws who exalted the civilization and knowledge of Persians in warfare which availed the Muslims at Ghazwa Khandaq.

The same Prophet saws who praised the Abyssinians for their spear play and martial prowess, and did not stop their parades and festivities.

Embrace your culture and recognize the beauty which Allah swt has blessed us with. There is no issue as long as you uphold Islam and do not go against it.

 

[AfrazulMandal]

Exactly.

There are folks among you who are more comfortable if the past is not Polytheistic. That I find funny. The present and future belong to Him. That is all that should matter.

Just Identity crisis. Working very hard to find a suitable theory to change History to evolve a new identity in which Pakistanis are masters of masters.

Gangoo, why are you getting constipated? A Sindhi is taking pride of his province Sindh which existed long before your jungle on the Ganga even saw civilization?

It's not like a Sindhi wants to get vicarious pride out of Bengal, Karnatka, Tamil Nadu, Odisha, Bihar, Marathrashtra, Gujrat etc

And I will follow your thread closely. You are proud and first amongst the provinces of Pakistan. Sindh is the foundation on which Pakistan was built. @Sindhi(Indus)

 

[Chhatrapati]

The question is, how come Sufi Saints are considered incarnated? Or do Sindhi Hindus consider Jhulelal to be a Sufi Saint as an incarnation of Hindu god Varuna?
Interesting

Abuse first followed by flawed logic and distorted history.
