Islamic Destruction of Hindu Temples

Sultan Mahmud of Ghazni (AD 997-1030) - Thanesar (Haryana)

"The chief of Tanesar was...obstinate in his infidelity and denial of God. So the Sultan marched against him with his valiant warriors, for the purpose of planting the standards of Islam and extirpating idolatry.." 

"The blood of the infidels flowed so copiously, that the stream was discolored, notwithstanding its purity, and people were unable to drink it...The victory gained by God's grace, who has established Islam forever as the best religion, notwithstanding that idolater's revolt against it...Praise be to God, the protector of the world, for the honor he bestows upon Islam and Musulmans."
