When Arabic Poet Livi was told to describe Indian treasure, he made a poem. When translated to English, it reads:
"Blessed land of Hind (Hindusthan), you are worthy of reverence, for in you has GOD revealed true knowledge of Himself. What a pure light do these four revealed books afford to our mind’s eyes like the charming and cool lustre of the dawn! These four GOD revealed upon his prophets called as Rishis in Hind. Those treasuries are the Sama and Yajur which GOD has preached. O my brothers, revere these, for they all tell us the good news of salvation. The next two of these four, the Rig and the Atharva, teach us lessons of universal brotherhood. These two are the beacons that warn us to turn towards that goal of universal brotherhood."
Ashfaqullah Khan was a renowned freedom fighter who belonged to Pathan family. He had friends with Hindu freedom fighters like Ram Prasad Bismil and Sikh freedom fighters like Bhagat Singh. Whenever his friends were criticized... he immediately commented.
"You criticize them. I feel myself criticized. They are not Muslim and that does not matters. I am Indian and India taught universal equality. A true Muslim knows very well that religion and other discrimination are merely human imagination and has no value in Allah's vision. Ultimately, all religions lead to same goal. You say that Hindu people are Kafirs - I ask you who bribed you and by how much; for saying like that? Answer it else you deserve death." In his last night, he said - "Bismil is Hindu, he will take birth again and serve his nation. Why the hell GOD made me Muslim??? I prefer hell if it is crime to convert to Hinduism but I want to come again for my nation. I want rebirth and not the heaven from GOD."
Muslim historian Wassaf Abdulla commented once:
"India, according to the concurrent opinion of all writers, is the most agreeable abode on earth and the most pleasant quarter of the world. Its dust is purer than air and its air is purer than purity itself."
Muslim historian of 9th century, Al - Jahiz mentioned:
"I can never forget what help had Hindus done to the mankind. They gave us number system. We gave it to Europe. They call it Arabic numerals but I know who actually deserves the credit." He adds up saying "The Hindus excel in astrology, mathematics, medicine and in various other sciences. They have developed to a perfection arts like sculpture, painting, and architecture. They have collections of poetry, philosophy, literature and science of morals. These people have judgment and are brave. They posses the virtues of cleanliness and purity. Contemplation has originated with them."
Another Muslim scholar of past, Abul Hassan Al Qifti said.
"Among those parts of their sciences which came to us, the numerical calculation….it is the swiftest and most complete method of calculation, the easiest to understand and the simplest to learn; it bears witness to the Indians’ piercing intellect, fine creativity and their superior understanding and inventive genius."
The Jewish writer Rele declares:
"Our present knowledge of the nervous system fits in so accurately with the internal description of the human body given in the Vedas. Then the question arises whether the Vedas are really religious books or books on anatomy of the nervous system and medicine."
Muslim journalist M. J. Akbar writes
"If Hinduism has a defining message, then it is humanism. There is space in its philosophy for everyone, which is one reason why India is a home to every single religion in the world. Hinduism is synonymous with humanism. That is its essence and its great liberating quality."
4th Caliph - Ali bin Abi Talib commented, "The land where books were first written and from where wisdom and knowledge sprang is India."
Muslim Scholar Yakubi mentioned, "The Hindus are superior to all other nations in intelligence and thoughtfulness. They are more exact in astronomy and astrology than any other people."
Islamic scholar of 10th century - Sayid Al Andalusi declared, "The Indians among all nations, through many centuries and since antiquity, have been the source of wisdom, fairness and moderation. They are creators of sublime thoughts, universal apologues, rare inventions and remarkable concepts."
A Muslim philosopher Roger Garaudy calls Bhagavad Gita to be a richly established message to convert all socieities to divinity on earth.
Rizwan Salim witnessed Muslim influence on India. In his article he mentions India to be the earth’s most mentally advanced civilization, the most richly imaginative culture, and the most vigorously creative society; whose base was tampered by a Muslim fool.

One of the greatest Persian Scientist was Muhammad Ibn Musa Al Khwarizmi who made mathematical commandments during 7th century. He plagiarized works of Indian mathematicians.
Present Day Muslims, look what you are doing. You are behaving the opposite way those ancient champions did. Who are you actually insulting ? Your ancestors and forefathers OR ... I don't have words to write here.
OK. Those were Muslims, Let's see what has other scholars to comment:
"If there is a country on earth which can justly claim the honour of having been the cradle of the Human race or at least the scene of primitive civilization, the successive developments of which carried into all parts of the ancient world and even beyond, the blessings of knowledge which is the second life of man, that country is assuredly India.”
- Encyclopaedia Britannica
“When I read the Bhagavad-Gita and reflect about how GOD created this universe everything else seems so superfluous.”
- Albert Einstein
Discoverer of theory of relativity. Well known for E = mc^2
“What we shall find in Modern Physics is an exemplification, an encouragement and a refinement of old Hindu Wisdom”
- Robert Openheimer
Father of atom bombs
“It is already becoming clear that a chapter which had a Western beginning will have to have an Indian ending, if it is not to end in the self-destruction of the human race.
At this supremely dangerous moment in human history, the only way of salvation for mankind is the Indian way.”
- Sir Arnold Joseph Toynbee
British Historian
“India was the motherland of our race, and Sanskrit the mother of Europe's languages; she was the mother of our philosophy; mother, through the Arabs, of much of our mathematics; mother, through the Buddha, of the ideals embodied in christianity; mother, through the village community, of self-government and democracy. Mother India is in many ways the mother of us all”.
- Will Durant
American Historian
“When India was explored, and the wonderful riches of Indian theological literature found, that dispelled once and for all, the dream about Christianity being the sole revelation. Nature makes a Brahmin of me presently.”
- Ralph Waldo Emerson
"In the whole world there is no study so beneficial and so elevating as that of the Upanishads. It has been the solace of my life – it will be the solace of my death.”
-Arthur Schopenhauer
German scholar
“I am convinced that everything has come down to us from the banks of the Ganges. That dynasty of Brahmins taught the rest of the world”
- Francois Voltaire
French writer
“In India, I found a race of mortals living upon the Earth, but not adhering to it. Inhabiting cities, but not being fixed to them, possessing everything but possessed by nothing.”
- Apollonius Tyaneus
Greek thinker
“…The Hindu systems of astronomy are by far the oldest and that from which the Egyptians, Greek, Romans and - even the Jews derived from the Hindus their knowledge.”
- Jean Syllvian Belly
French astronomer
"After a study of some forty years and more of the great religions of the world,
I find none so perfect, none so scientific, none so philosophical and none so spiritual than the great religion known by the name of Hinduism.”
- Annie Wood Beasant
British Theosophical Society
“After the conversations about Indian philosophy, some of the ideas of Quantum Physics that had seemed so crazy suddenly made much more sense.”
- Werner Heisenberg
Founder of Quantum physics
“Vedanta teaches that consciousness is singular, all happenings are played out in one universal consciousness and there is no multiplicity of selves.”
- Erwin Schroedinger
Father of Quantum metaphysics
"It will no longer remain to be doubted that the priests of Egypt and the sages of Greece have drawn directly from the original well of India, that it is to the banks of the Ganges and the Indus that our hearts feel drawn as if by some hidden urge.”
- Fredrich Mejer
English statesman
“Where can we look for sages like those whose systems of philosophy were prototypes of those of Greece: to whose works Plato, Thales and Pythagorus were disciples? Where do I find astronomers whose knowledge of planetary systems yet excites wonder in Europe as well as the architects and sculptors whose works claim our admiration, and the musicians who could make the mind oscillate from joy to sorrow, from tears to smile with the change of modes and varied intonation?”
- Colonel James Todd
American Pioneer
"The Vedas are noble documents, documents not only of value and pride to India but to the entire humanity, because in them we see man attempting to lift himself above the earthly existence."
- Prot Pall Thema
“Mankind together with all sciences must have originated on the roof of the world i.e., the Himalayas”
- Immanuel Kant
German philosopher
“What is found in Vedas, exists nowhere else.”
- Lord Morley
“There is a striking resemblance between the equivalence of mass and energy symbolized by Shiv's cosmic dance and the Western theory, first expounded by Einstein: E=MC2 .”
- Richard Waterstone
US Journalist
"The Hindus were so advance in surgery that their instruments could cut human hair longitudinally."
- MRS Plunket
“India – The land of Vedas, the remarkable works contain not only religious ideas for a perfect life, but also facts which science has proved true. Electricity, radium, electronics, airship, all were known to the seers who founded the Vedas.”
- Elba Wheeler Wilcox
Renowned Poet
“They were very advanced Hindu astronomers in 6000 BCE. Vedas contain an account of the dimension of Earth, Sun, Moon, Planets and Galaxies”
- Emmeliun Plumret
“India had faith. Faith in its early energy and enthusiasm was the natural incentive to that great scientific age which was to produce astronomers like Aryabhatta, discovering the revolution of the earth on its own axis, and his successor Varamihira; who brought Hindu medicine to its height, perhaps under Sushruta; and which finally gave to Arabia the knowledge with which she was later to fructify Europe.”
- Kakuza Okakura
Japanese scholar
"Indian philosophers' subtleties make most of the great European philosophers look like schoolboys."
-T. S. Eliot
"There is no language in the world, even Greek, which has the clarity and the philosophical precision of Sanskrit," adding that " India is not only at the origin of everything she is superior in everything, intellectually, religiously or politically and even the Greek heritage seems pale in comparison."
- Frederich Von Schleigel
German critic
"The vastest knowledge of today cannot transcend the buddhi of the Rishis in ancient India; and science, in its most advanced stage now, is closer to Vedanta than ever before. The Veda was the most precious gift for which the West had ever been indebted to the East."
- Alfred North Whitehead
British Mathematician
"The Vedas and the Upanishads are India's proudest and most ancient possessions. They are the world's oldest intellectual legacies. They are the only composition in the universe invested with Divine origin, and almost Divine sanctity. They are said to emanate from God, and are held to be the means for attaining God. Their beginnings are not known. They have been heirlooms of the Hindus from generation to generation from time immemorial."
- Hans Torwestan
German writer
"Religious faith in the case of the Hindus has never been allowed to run counter to scientific laws, moreover the former is never made a condition for the knowledge they teach, but there are always scrupulously careful to take into consideration the possibility that by reason both the agnostic and atheist may attain truth in their own way. Such tolerance may be surprising to religious believers in the West, but it is an integral part of Vedantic belief."
- Romain Rolland
French Nobel Laureate
"It is India that gave us the ingenious method of expressing all numbers by ten symbols, each receiving a value of position as well as an absolute value, a profound and important idea which appears so simple to us now that we ignore its true merit. But its very simplicity, the great ease which it has lent to all computations, puts our arithmetic in the first rank of useful inventions, and we shall appreciate the grandeur of this achievement the more when we remember that it escaped the genius of Archimedes and Appollnius, two of the greatest men produced by antiquity."
- Pierre Simon De Laplace
French mathematician, known for Laplace series.
ALL THOSE WHO INSULT CORE OF HINDUISM SHOULD BETTER REVIEW THIS AT LEAST THRICE.
