Why my ancestors converted to Islam?

Shamin,Allahabad says: June 29, 2013 2:40 AM

I don’t know why my ancestors has decided to convert in Islam from Hinduism 104 year back. Perhaps during those days situation may be different like today. Grandfather of my grandfather was initially Hindu named Sukhdeo Panday from a village of Varanasi with three brothers. He converted in Islam and settled in Allahabad and generation of his other two brothers still Hinduism.

I tried to know what was the situation then which compelled to go in Islam, through various records available in my home of that period but found nothing. I respect Hinduism but has been told that once any Hindu go in Islam they can’t back in Hindu religion because Hinduism never allow Muslim to back in parental religion. From last 8 years I am studying Hinduism but confused to understand the fact. So I deeply read each and every blogs and finally decide that INSANIYAT (humanity) is the only religion of humanity. -Shamin

    It is a complete myth that one cannot convert to Hinduism. Many organisations carry this out – Arya Samaj, BAPS etc.

    I don’t know why your grandfather converted to Islam but typically Islam in South Asia has spread through violence, intimidation and coercion.

    – Jizya (tax on dhimmis (non-Hindus)) was imposed
    – Forced conversions took place under Muslim rulers like Aurangazeb
    – Muslim men were given an incentive to lure Hindu women and get them to convert upon marriage
    – Islam allowed men to have more wives
    – Political manoevering

      You can go revert back to Hinduism by help of a lawyer. Any religion is 1000 times better than your current religion of violence.

    Shamin,

    Your ancestors must have converted due to coercion, thread, murder. Islam is nothing but a criminal and cruel ideology, with fake rules like 72 virgins in the heaven for terrorist activities, mutta marriages, hymen repair surgery, female genital mutiliation, burka, halala, stoning to death, multiple marriages etc.

    If you realize the truth, why dont you get back to Hinduism through Arya Samaj?

    you may ask questions on hindudharmaforums.com website, in which almost half of the members are white people from Australia to America (with hindu screen names),you will get answers with some authority on the subject. Also please visit ;westernhindu.com and explore the chain blogs linked on the right side of the home page. All of them are Caucasians who have embraced Hinduism and are running their own blogs. You can also become a hindu like them regardless of what your parental faith is.Agniveer to Arya samaj many hindu organizations make the transition much easy and without any fanfare. Dont tell muslims, they will persecute you. Good luck.

    As per Sanatan Dharma, there is no concept of conversion. Every individual is given freedom to pick up his own deity to worship. However, this practice was twisted by the invaders to suit their propaganda. They forced the natives to convert to their religions using sword & coercion. They also propagated a lie that you are not welcome in Hinduism if you want to go back. If you study history, there are several cases where people were converted by force and came back to their roots after some time ( ex. Harihara Raya & Bukka Raya, founders of Vijaya Nagara kingdom ). If you strongly think that Hinduism matches your belief system, best option would be to get in touch with a local Arya Samaj or Agniveer and get your conversion formally registered. This will give freedom to your future generations too. Good luck!!

    Who told you that Hindus converted to Islam cannot come backe to Hinduism? It’s a false propaganda spread by the people of vested interest. Do you think that somebody lost a few years ago cannot come back to home? In fact various people have returned to their ancestral Hindu religion and are leading a life of a devout Hindu. See the following link:

    http://hinduexistence.org/2012/01/03/thousands-returned-to-hindu-home-through-mega-shuddhi-event-by-agniveer/

    Hinduism is the name for Insaniyat and a true Hindu is supposed to be a humanist.
    I recommend you to visit the following link to know more about Hinduism:

    http://www.hinduwisdom.info It’s run by a woman in America.

    You are most welcome if you are interested in joining your other extended family members (progenies of your grand father’s brothers) as a Hindu. It’s your choice, no compulsions.
