Tipu Sultan thread

[Hamza913]

Tipu Sultan was a Dravidian
You evil punjabis shouldn't use his name

His grandfather was Punjabi you idiot, and Tipu also spoke Urdu (just like us).

Indigenous South Indian but unfortunately Hindi Musalman , plagued with "Ashraf" and "Ajalf" mentality, had to declare him an Arab. They say his family was actually Arab who settled in Afghanistan and Punjab before moving to South India. The ambiguity of his origins, even though he is a 18th century figure, points towards his indigenous roots. There are several hints pointing towards so called 'low' origins of Haider Ali and Tipu. The Nizam of Hyderabad, who were Indianized Turkic people, refused to marry his daughter to Tipu's son, pointing out the low origins of Haider Ali family. If they were really Arabs, Nizam would not have refused such risha from powerful state. Secondly there were people by name of "Nawait" who were descendants of Arabs settled in Malabar. His third wife was a Nawait and she used to annoy him by pointing out that her family is racially superior to Tipu's. On one occasion this Nawait refused to marry their daughter to a cousin of Tipu Sultan, declaring that the latter's family is inferior. So its obvious Tipu's family was not of Arabs roots and were converts from some humble caste of Hindus.

scratches of His sons have pure Dravidian features despite mixing with central and west Asians for 3 generation straight.

His family must be from deep south or lower caste/Dravidian roots.

Did Tipu call himself Punjabi? Speaking a language doesn't make him belong to that region, and India has more Urdu speakers than Pakistan. Also, the point that Tipu's grandfather was Punjabi is vague, he was not from any royalty but a soldier. Little is known about him.

He didn't, but that doesn't change where he was from ancestrally.

Urdu is still the national language of Pakistan, and Tipu spoke it.

He wasn't royalty, but he was still a Punjabi who worked as a military commander in Aurangzeb's army.

Tipu was an isi agent.

How do you know he was from Punjab? Many Muslims even from Bengal joined Mughal army.

Stop claiming others history. It is not even shared history. Tipu lived and died in Karnataka. So did Hyder Ali, god knows where Tipu's grandfather came from.

It's a historical fact that he came from the Punjab (I read it online and in a book).

It's not claiming others history, he was Muslim, spoke Urdu and he was ancestrally a Punjabi. If anything, he belongs to us more than you.

Actually his ethnicity does not matter.
Uch neech does not matter.
He defeated Hindus. He slaughtered them. He razed temples. He was a Ghazi. Spread Islam. A true hero. Fearless to the end.

Tipu introduced Persian in Karnataka country. That is his glorious legacy. Without him Malappuram would not even be a muslim region today. We salute him.

Asalamu Alaikum

Yes I agree.

His army never numbered more than his enemies. Still he win almost all the time. Except when he was attacked from all sides. He himself fell in battle unlike many who became British vassals.

I don't see any such source that proves your claim.

By that logic, you belong to Arabs and Persians. You accept that? So, save it, he got nothing to do with Pakistan rather than you naming warship in his name. He ruled in the South, he's part of our history.

With him or without him Allah's will is served. He is nothing more than any of us. Towards the end of his life, he met Hindu astrologers and donated funds for temples, he believed in mushrikeens gods and his powers. That's about it for me.

He did that so that the remaining Hindu subjects do not revolt. No because he believed in them lol.

But he did not live long. Paying temples and Hindu gods dd not help his empire. He was defeated and the Hindus celebrated.
