Abstract

Islam came to parts of India within decades of the Prophet Muhammad’s death in 632. Sometimes it came with violence, as the armies of the successors to Muhammad, or caliphs, ventured into central Asia and skirmished with the forces of Hindu and Buddhist kingdoms such as Thanesar under its dynamic ruler Harsha (r. 606–647).
