    There is also an ancient Hindu temple dedicated to God Sun. ☀️🌞 which is now in miserable condition. It is not only a religious site but one of the great heritage of Pakistan. Pakistanis failed to distinguish between religion and culture which are very different from each other. Your culture and language is not a artificial things but given /gifted by your true god .. a person can make of its religion but not culture and language. A land is identified by it's culture and language not by any religion. Religion is a personal choice you can't force it . Some might be very religious and some might not

      No, it was the capital of Muslim Langah Jatts. Under them, Multani economic-power reached far and wide, such that even in the mountains of the Caucuses, they established the Multani Caravanserai (in modern Baku, Azerbaijan).

      The Jatts,(Huns) came to India only in 6th century i.e in 543 after the decline of Gupta empire. Mulsthan was prosperous much earlier It was part of Sindh and became separate entity much before Mahabharata, Sanjay younger brother of Sindh ruler along with his Mother Ridula fought against tyranny of her elder son. It was the place where lord Krishna son Samba got redemption and built the famous Sun Temple.

      @@sundeepjethani Jatts are not Huns. They are Indo-Aryans, or Indo-Scythians, or a mix of them both. Yes, Multan is an ancient and rich city, but it reached its peak under the rule of Muslims, including native Langah Jatts.
      The sun temple was irrelevant. It was not needed for Jatts to bring Multan to its peak.

    Thank you for mentioning that Multan was part of Sindh infact Multan was once the capital of Sindh. Multan has always been mentioned into Sindh region historically, and it was part of Sindh, after Arabs it has been ruled by many of Sindhi tribes like Langah, while Bahawalpur was ruled by Sindhi Daudpotra tribe, and derajat was ruled by Sindhi Kalhoras and Sindhi Dodai Soomra Rajputs, and Major cities in detajat are named after his sons like Dera Ghazi Khan, Dera Ismail Khan etc.
    In hindu sacred book of Mahabharat South of Punjab is mentioned as Sauvira which is one of the Kingdoms of Sindh region. Sauvira or Sauviro in Sindhi overtime shortened to Sero/Siro an ancient region of Sindh, its people are called Serai/Sirai and the dialect of Sindhi as Seraiki/Siraiki. There are many Sirai Jaats in Uttar region of present day Sindh.
    Btw I also wanna say that you are really beautiful, specially your eyes. 😊

      The only "Indians" that interacted with the Prophet (ﷺ) were the Zutt (Jatts). They were actually a major faction in the Middle East during the Golden Age of Islam. They even joined the early Muslim conquests.
      Fun fact: the last Parsi state (Tabaristan) was conquered by Abu al-Khasib al-Ajmi, a Jatt from Sindh.

    Nobody in India has heard about Mohamed bin quasim.
    Nor had anyone in Pakistan, until Zia decided to create a new history, with a new father of Pakistan.
    He was a very ordinary commander, and not just India, he is totally unknown and unheard of even in Iraq or Syria, which were his likely place of origin.
    Unlike Ghauri. Gazhnavi.. Babur or Abdali who are well known in Afghanistan, infact afghans consider Abdali as the founder ( fact) of modern-day Afghanistan.
    Similarly. Taimur is the national hero of Uzbekistan.
    But MBQ like everything else about Pakistan is a fake story, and a lie.
    Do you know the actual reason why MBQ attacked Sindh? Hint; It was something to do with your prophet's family. If you are a true historian, research that, and make a video on it.
