Explain in detail about the policies that were adopted from the nonMuslims by Aurangzeb​
telo118 [61]

Answer:

  • Lane-Poole, “For the first time in their history, the Mughals beheld a rigid Muslim in their emperor—a Muslim as sternly repressible of himself as of his people  around him, a king who was prepared to stake his throne for sake of his faith.
  •  He must have been fully conscious of the dangerous path he was pursuing, and well aware  against every Hindu sentiment. Yet he chose this course, and adhered to this with unbending  resolve through close on fifty years of unchallenged sovereignty.”
  • Dr. S.R. Sharma, writing about the acts of religious intolerance of Aurangzeb has observed,  “These were not the acts of a righteous ruler of constructive statesman, but the outbursts of blind  fanaticism, unworthy of the great genius that Aurangzeb undoubtedly possessed in all other aspects.”

Aims of Aurangzeb’s religious policy:

  1.  It is generally accepted that Aurangzeb was a fanatic Sunni Mussalman. His chief aim was to convert Dar-ul-harb (India: the country of Kafirs or infidels) to Dar-ul-Islam (country of Islam).  
  2. He was intolerant towards other faiths, especially Hindus. He was also against Shia Muslims.

Aurangzeb’s religious policy had two aspects i.e:

(i) To promote the tenets of Islam and to ensure that the people led their lives accordingly.

(ii) To adopt anti-Hindu measures. Anti-Hindu measures:

Following were the anti-Hindu measures adopted by Aurangzeb:

  1. Demolishing temples and breaking idols
  2. Imposition of Jaziya
  3. Discriminatory toll far
  4. Removal of the Hindus from Government jobs
  5. Restrictions on Hindu educational institutions
  6. Conversion through different means
  7. Social restrictions

Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:  The correct answer is  :  b. served in the military and worked in war production.

Explanation:  During the Second World War the government of the United States needed the help of the Navajo Indians.
