In 1951, Hindus were 22% of the Pakistani population (including East Pakistan, now Bangladesh). In 1997, the percentage of Hindus was 1.6% in Pakistan and 10.2% in Bangladesh. This drop in the Hindu population is because of Islamic hostility toward Hindus; in classic Islamic law, Hindus, not being “People of the Book,” must convert to Islam or be killed. After a fatwa granting them honorary “People of the Book” status, Hindus may continue to live as Hindus, but only insofar as they accept Muslim hegemony and denial of their basic rights as dhimmis. The Islamic Republic of Pakistan has not enforced traditional Islamic laws regarding dhimmis, but has turned a blind eye to Muslims making life miserable for Hindus in the country.
This conference is an attempt to deflect the harassment, violence and pressure to which Muslims subject Hindus in Pakistan. It is unlikely to work.
“Celebrating diversity: Hindus to hold conference for interfaith harmony,” Express Tribune, December 20, 2015:
PESHAWAR: Hindus in the city will arrange a conference on December 24 to pay respects to Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) to promote interfaith harmony.
“We cordially invite people from all religious backgrounds, members of civil societies and political party workers to commemorate the holy event,” All Pakistan Hindu Rights Movement Chairman Haroon Sarbdiyal told The Express Tribune on Saturday. “Through this conference, we will give a message to the world that Islam is a peaceful religion.”
Sarbdiyal added they want to promote mutual understanding among religions and strengthen humanity. “Religious extremism is not only an issue for minorities in Pakistan; it is a global issue and countries should revise their policies to clear perceptions that have been damaging the social fabric of the global society.” Representatives of various religious parties welcomed the initiative of the conference, saying interfaith harmony is the need of the hour.
While talking to The Express Tribune, Minister for Religious and Minorities Affairs Haji Habibur Rehman said their government will support activities on interfaith harmony. “Last month Christians also held an activity promoting interfaith harmony.”
“It is a good decision to organise the conference,” said Jamaat-e-Islami K-P leader Mushtaq Ahmad. “Worship places of minorities are protected in our country, particularly in K-P and freedom of expression is the basic right of everyone.”

Chabuco says
“Celebrating diversity… to promote interfaith harmony”—
Peshawar, a city in Pakistan. You’re not promoting any diversity or harmony by sucking up to Pedohammed in a Muslim country. Honor NON-MUSLIM deities, saints, prophets, whatever in MUSLIM countries, like Pakistan and Saudi Arabia without any local retaliation, then and only then we would be talking about real peace and harmony, instead of deflection, whitewashing and revisionism.

Interfaith harmony??? Is that what Muhammad called it when he smashed all the statues and idols of the various other gods inside the Kaaba? How can anyone think Muhammad would be okay with interfaith harmony ……. unless it was accompanied by some protection money.

Pakistan: Hindu conference to honor Muhammad and show Islam is peaceful
……………………………….
Non-Muslims have been trying to blunt the terrible savagery of Islam by proclaiming it or its “Prophet” peaceful since the earliest days of Islam–just look at the forgery created by the monks of St. Catherine’s monastery centuries ago, claiming that the “Prophet” gave them safe conduct.
Sadly, this is more apt to snow other Infidels than it is to convince Muslims to stop threatening dhimmis.

Wouldn’t this have to be done by Muslims themselves? Nothing said by the “filthy Kuffar” matters.
Mike says
Where have they gone to? Or is is Muslim population increase? Have they emigrated more than others? I doubt that millions have been killed, so I’d like to know what the process is, because it is likely that it will be prophetic for elsewhere (read: France) in the medium future…
Ciccio says
Where have they gone? Just water will will wear down the strongest rock. When you have one population that is under constant harassment living with another population whose sole preaching is to go forth and multiply for the glory of God it is no surprise that the Muslim population of Pakistan has multiplied by three since partition. Now three time three pressure, the harassment, the ever increasing struggle for the fast disappearing resources.
Cicero says
Many have fled Pakistan or due to the inexorable pressue and harrassment from their muslim neighbours they have converted to Islam.
I would encorage anti- jihadis to read Urvashi Butalia’s excellent book on what happened to the Hindus who remained in Pakistan after India’s partition. The book is called ” The Other. Side of Silence”.
It will shrivel your soul!
andrew sapia says
so then why, why does everyone pretend and perpetuate this lie about Islam being peaceful despite the clear evidence to the contrary? Muslims are treated well in India, so well that you will probably end up partitioning your country once again in the future, that or sending them packing to Pakistan, or worse, or better depending on your view.

Mike, over the past decades Hindus and other Infidels in Pakistan have fled, been driven out, kidnapped and forced to convert to Islam, and murdered outright.

It was funny that also million of muslims fledd from eastpakistan(now bangladesh)to India.Why?Because Muslim Indians and Bangladeshis cant live together in “East-Pakistan)!so Muslim Pakistanis and Muslim Bangladeshis had a muslim brotherwar.

This isn’t “funny”, Peter–this is exactly what is happening now with Muslims flooding into Europe from Syria and other Jihad zones.
Muslims don’t just murder Infidels–they also target “other sect” and “insufficiently Islamic” Muslims, as well–this should not surprise. It has been the pattern in Islam from the very beginning.
Matthieu Baudin says
“…The Islamic Republic of Pakistan has not enforced traditional Islamic laws regarding dhimmis, but has turned a blind eye to Muslims making life miserable for Hindus in the country…”

Ainu888 says
I am a Kashmiri Hindu. My relatives were driven out of the Kashmir valley where they lived for centuries, in peace, worshipping Shiva, and developing/practicing Yoga. Today they live in camps as refugees in the plains of India.
When I see Dr. Robert Spencer, I see a gentile, who is speaking the truth, and when I see his videos, I feel like I am no man, for I post here anonymously. I don’t even use my real name.
The other day I heard Robert Spencer in a youtube video say, “I am going to die regardless of what I do,” or something equivalent. I felt a lump in my throat.
Islam has destroyed Buddhism in central Asia, but they will never destroy the Hindus.
KnowThyEnemy says
If they decimated the Hindu population in Pakistan, Bangladesh, and Kashmir, and if the Muslim population is increasing in India, what makes you think that the Muslims can’t destroy the Hindus?
Not only they can, but they are making gains every year! The only [reasonable] solution to this that I can think of, is for Hindus to get serious about preaching their religion and proselytize in India.

Singh the Sikh says
Some Hindus haven’t learnt, even after tens of centuries of horrific muslim persecution. In 1990, half a million Kashmiri Pandits were forced to flee their homes due to an orgy of muslim violence . There were many atrocities.
*One prominent kashmiri hiding in a rice drum was caught through a female neighbour informant and killed, with his forced wife to eat rice cooked in the deceased’s blood.
*Schoolteacher Girja Tiku was blindfolded and gang-raped in a taxi, then sawed in half on an electric saw….while still alive.
These atrocities are the tip of the iceberg. Here are excerpts from Col Tej Kumar Tikoo excellent book Kashmir: Its Aborigines and their Exodus (2015). It is a testimony of muslim hatred for Hindus, and how ruthless, unrelenting, and methodical muslims are when it comes to ethnic cleansing. Everyone joins the party, including the so-called moderates:
In 1990 Hizb-ul-Mujahideen warned all Pandits to leave the Valley, backed by Kalashnikov-wielding masked Jehadis carrying out military-type marches openly.
Killing of Kashmiri Pandits continued amid bomb explosions and sporadic firing.
Explosive speeches were broadcast from the public address systems of all mosques.
Thousands of inflammatory audio cassettes were also played throughout the Valley.
A warning letter to the pundits said, ‘We order you to leave Kashmir immediately, otherwise your children will be harmed- this land is only for Muslims. Sikhs and Hindus cannot stay here. If you do not obey, we will start with your children’.
The Valley reverberated with the war-cries of Islamists, who had stage-managed the whole event with great care; choosing its timing and the slogans to be used.
A host of highly provocative, communal and threatening slogans, interspersed with martial songs, incited the Muslims to come out on the streets and break the chains of ‘slavery’.
These exhortations urged the faithful to give a final push to the Kafir to ring in the true Islamic order. Pandits were given three choices — Ralive, Tsaliv ya Galive (convert to Islam, leave the place or perish). Tens of thousands of Muslims poured into the streets, shouting ‘death to India’ and ‘death to Kafirs’.
These slogans, broadcast from the loud speakers of every mosque, numbering roughly 1100, exhorted the hysterical mobs to embark on Jehad.
All male Muslims &their children and the aged, wanted to be seen to be participating in this Jehad.
Those who had organized such a show of force in the middle of a cold winter night, had only one objective; to put the fear of death into the hearts of the already frightened Pandits.
In this moment of collective hysteria, gone was the facade of secular, tolerant, cultured, peaceful and educated outlook of Kashmiri Muslims, which the Indian intelligentsia and the liberal media had made them to wear for their own reasons.

The Indian left wing stood silent when the ethnic cleansing took place in the Kashmir Valley . When the Islamo-fascists in Kashmir are taught a lesson, the Indian left-wingers will not be spared either.

Don’t bother teaching lessons to anyone Ainu888! Proselytize instead! Of course that would require a decent knowledge and understanding of Hinduism. Hence that is where Hindus need to begin!

Thanks for posting that, Singh.
I hate to say it, but from accounts I read at the time I had the general sense that Hindus and Muslims were ‘clashing’ in Kashmir–it took me many years to learn how one-sided the attacks were, and that this was yet another Muslim Jihad against Infidels,
And, of course, this is still on-going, as Muslims try to drive all non-Muslims out of Kashmir so that they can seize the territory from India:

Interfaith harmony originated from the Baha’i Teachings in particular this verse revealed in the 1860’s. Ever since Baha’is have been holding interfaith services. Eventually as tensions have grown between religions many countries have now adopted interfaith services as a means for creating harmony.
O people! Consort with the followers of all religions in a spirit of friendliness and fellowship. Thus hath the day-star of His sanction and authority shone forth above the horizon of the decree of God, the Lord of the worlds.

Jihad Watch is condemning Holy war or jihad but it has already been formally and officially abolished by God so it will die out maybe slowly but it will die as humanity will unite against it and force jihad to no longer be observed but mainly because it has been abolished by God in this verse.
Jihad or Holy War is in the process of being ‘blotted out’. Watch and see how over the coming years jihad will be abandoned and replaced by things like interfaith. We’re on the oath to world peace & unity and it can’t be stopped.
O people of the earth!
The first Glad-Tidings which the Mother Book hath, in this Most Great Revelation, imparted unto all the peoples of the world is that the law of holy war hath been blotted out from the Book. Glorified be the All-Merciful, the Lord of grace abounding, through Whom the door of heavenly bounty hath been flung open in the face of all that are in heaven and on earth. 22
Keith says
Where in the Quran does it say that Jihad has been formally and officially abolished by Allah?
Obviously the message has failed to get through to all those mosques that are funded by Saudi Arabia throughout the world.
Don’t forget that the Baha’i’s are a very minor sect of Islam and are considered apostates by all other sects of Islam and are persecuted every where they are mixed in with a larger muslim society.

……………………………..
The Baha’i may believe that Jihad has “been abolished”, but pious Muslims sure as hell don’t.
And do Muslims respect Baha’i? They do not. They oppress and persecute Baha’i to the extent that Baha’i has had to headquarter in Israel, rather than their native Iran or any other part of the Muslim world.
Despite this, Baha’i regularly pretend that Islam is completely peaceful–despite orthodox Muslims wanting to murder them.

Notice that this poster did not quote the Qur’an here, which has *very different* tenets.
There are about 7 million Baha’i world-wide–compared to about 1.6 billion ravening Muslims.
Yet he is still pretending that Muslims are apt to be swayed by such “filthy Kuffar”.
Here’s how Baha’i whitewashes Islam:
“Blessing and peace be upon Him [Muhammad] through Whose advent Bathá [Mecca] is wreathed in smiles, and the sweet savours of Whose raiment have shed fragrance upon all mankind– He Who came to protect men from that which would harm them in the world below. Exalted, immensely exalted is His station above the glorification of all beings and sanctified from the praise of the entire creation…Through them the religion of God was firmly established among His creatures and His Name magnified amidst His servants.”
– Tablets of Baha’u’llah revealed after the Kitab-i-Aqdas, p. 162
*This* is how Baha’i characterize this vicious war-lord, pedophile, caravan-raider, slaver, and mass-murderer. *Ugh*.
In fact, Shoghi Effendi believes one of the main roles of Baha’i is to whitewash this foul creed for us: “There is so [much] misunderstanding about Islam in the West in general that you have to dispel…” and “The mission of the American Bahá’ís is, no doubt to eventually establish the truth of Islam in the West.”

It seems that Hindu religious liders have sold their people the same way as the western religious liders have.
Karen says
“Through this conference, we will give a message to the world that Islam is a peaceful religion.” Why would a Hindu have a pressing need to demonstrate that Islan is peaceful? Sounds like the wishful thinking of a persecuted minority.
Note the language used by the organizers of the conference; they speak ndirectly of their persecution while honoring Mohammad, hoping this will buy them some relief.
I saw no mention of Muslims organizing similar conferences. That’s not Islam’s MO where it holds all the power. When Muslims stand silently by and watch their neighbors being persecuted or killed, they are not practicing their religion in peace. They are technically keeping their hands clean while benefiting from Islamization.

I’m sure many have noticed that Arab Christians have been vociferous in their verbal hatred of Israel. I have never condemned them for that, as I understand the reason behind it – self preservation of themselves and their families. This public hatred of Israel was the only way they could gain some protection, as the West was never likely to defend or support them. And the evidence clearly supports that.
Pong says
Arab christians in the west continue to be anti-semitic, though they don’t face prosecution. They are as hateful as moslems toward the jews. It is difficult to feel sorry for those people, full of stupidity and hate. Even in Israel, were they are protected and free, they ally with moslems against the very people, who protect their freedom and lives. They are worse then moslems.
dumbledoresarmy says
Some of them are waking up.
Look up Fr Gabriel Naddaf. He and others within the Christian community in Israel are preaching a complete change of attitude – thank God!
Dhimmis *can* be cured. Rev Dr Mark Durie has written a little handbook about it – “Liberty to the Captives”.
Pro-Israel philojudaic Christians within the West can challenge antisemitic attitudes amongst their own communities *and* amongst immigrant Christians (such as those from Syria). Because – as one can see from the writings of people like Jacques Ellul, and the amazingly-erudite James Parkes – it is perfectly possible to be a convinced, practising, confessing Christian and to not have an antisemitic bone in one’s body. Brigitte Gabriel grew up within a Maronite Catholic Christian milieu, in Lebanon, within which there was a strong current of traditional antisemitism, much of it probably absorbed by osmosis from the surrounding Muslim environment; and yet, she was able to rethink the attitudes infecting her community, upon encountering real-life Jews in Israel, and getting to know them better. She shucked off antisemitism, and became an enthusiastic supporter of Israel, whilst remaining a Catholic Christian.
*My* constant prayer for middle eastern Christians is that they will be liberated from Dhimmitude – and for those both within and outside of Israel, that antisemitism may be *exorcised* from their souls and their communities.
gravenimage says
Yes–*very* true, DDA. Islam sullies everything it touches, including the ethics of many of its victims.
But with freedom many of these essentially decent former dhimmis are reclaiming their moral sense.
Just another reason why Muslims target former dhimmis in the West–they don’t want them *ever* to escape from the oppression of Islam.
DP111 says
Some Arab Christians are beginning to understand what they have been through. A thousand years of dhimmification is not easy to overcome in a few years.
It will take time, may be a generation in freedom. I hear that some Arab Christians are even joining the IDF.
DP111 says
Come to think of it. There are many Jews in a similar situation. A thousand years of dhimmification and abject slavery cannot be faced so easily, without it causing some serious and uncomfortable heart searching.

This conference is only a survival tactic of the remaining Hindus1 They know from the past experience their days are numbered in Pakistan and perhaps by acting showing”respect” for the monster of Isam, Mo/allah. Muslims might let them in peace!1 Fat chance, Muslims will not leave them alone until all are either converted, killed or driven out. It’s sad story happening in all Islamic countries where minorities are subjugated, tortured, raped and murdered regularly and the “hypocrite” countries of the world simply look on! When ISIS is killing all non-Muslims in Syria/Iraq and out=r POTUS keeps blabbing he is right on track to contain ISIS then you know how low this country has fallen!!

In the UK there is a small but feisty group called the British Pakistani Christian Association.
In 2013 they produced a long, detailed and damning report on the many, many and horrific ways in which minorities – especially the non-Muslim religious minorities – are mistreated in hideous Islamic Pakistan. If you click on the link I provide, you will be able to follow a further link to a full copy of the report. They have most to say about the Christians but one can safely assume that everything the Muslims are doing to the Christians is being done to Hindus and Sikhs as well.

The Targeting of ‘Minority Others’ in Pakistan: Report Executive Summary and copy of our report.
An excerpt from the summary:
“…Pakistan is the world’s fifth most populous country, and over its existence has shown an unbroken downward trend in the standard of its treatment of religious and other minorities. It is currently rated as the sixth most dangerous country in the world for persecution of minorities…”.
“…The targeting of various minorities in Pakistan has grown through time, and in part can now be described as ‘genocidal’ in scope….”.
“….Targeted persecution of Christians and other minorities occurs in every area of Pakistan, both geographically and socially. Kidnap, rape, forced conversion and marriage of minority women and girls occurs on a daily basis, sometimes as part of the sex slave trade, with a smaller number of teenage and prepubescent boys also targeted in abuse rings and prostitution rackets. Muslim clerics and Islamic courts approve, routinely illegally converting and marrying off such under-age girls, as converting someone to the ‘superior’ religion of Islam is deemed a virtue. Non-Muslim women are seen as lawful prey. Some Islamicist groups in Pakistan even teach that any Muslim man who marries or even just rapes a non-Muslim women will be rewarded with seventy virgins in heaven forever, thus making the reward for rape equal to that of a suicide bomber or martyr. Commercial sale of kidnapped women as ‘wives’, or giving them to supporters and followers as wives is sometimes practiced by quite senior state and national politicians. Sexual harassment and rapes without forced marriage and conversion are endemic and an entrenched routine in some villages. Police are nearly always complicit with the kidnappers to some level, sometimes actively covering their tracks, more often than not mocking, pressuring or beating up victim’s families, and sometimes participating in rape themselves. Pakistani police can quite often be accurately described as criminal gangs themselves. Those police that do genuinely try to uphold law and freedom are often sidelined or outmaneuvered or outgunned. Particularly in Karachi, police can function as proxy armies for political groups. In one case, the police burned a Christian man alive and raped his wife in front of their children.
[Note: and everything Muslims in Pakistan do to Christians is also done to Hindus and Sikhs – dda]
Attacks on and desecrations of minority religious buildings, statues, shrines, religious clerics and buildings are common. Death threats, extortion, fraudulent seizure of land and property, often in collusion with authorities or police, are routine. Intimidation of impoverished minorities into selling their properties at dirt-cheap prices is routine in both urban and rural areas, further continuing the enforced impoverishment of such minorities. In the worst attacks well trained gunmen open fire on Christians in churches. In one such instance the attackers included a squad of burqa-clad female extremists toting – and using – powerful weapons. Mosque loudspeakers are very commonly used to whip up religious lynch mobs to enforce suppression of minorities, particularly Christians….”.
“…Police are trained in Sharia laws and practice. The legal code actually outlines laws of evidence follow Sharia principles, in that the testimony of a non-Muslim is worth half that of a Muslim, and that of a woman is half that of a man.
“This is especially problematic in the frequent occurrence of cases of kidnap, rape, forced conversion and marriage of minority women and young girls to Muslim men.
“Already intimidated by death threats or threats of blasphemy charges against their family, even when they do dare speak out, female minority victims of such crimes testimony is worth a quarter of their abusers, even if you leave aside the fact that their accusers are often powerful and influential businessmen or politicians, and have sympathetic Islamic scholars backing them up.
“**Hindu and Scheduled Caste women are particularly vulnerable as the state does not recognize their religious marriage ceremonies and contracts.** {my emphasis – dda}.
” The police and legal system in Pakistan is notoriously corrupt, and as well as the normal societal prejudice and discrimination, minorities face an additional hurdle in that they are usually the poorest, and the least able to bribe their way to justice…”.
And on, and on, and on, and unendurably on.
Islam is sh*t. Islam teaches Muslims to behave like sh*t. Islam sacralises murder, rape, robbery, extortion, and every imaginable cruelty that humans have ever practised upon one another. So long as the Muslim human inflicts the horrors upon a non-Muslim (or upon another Muslim weaker than him/ her self and deemed insufficiently islamic ), the Muslim can do it with impunity and indeed with pleasure and zest and feel that he or she is worshipping and pleasing their horrible ‘god’ (when what they are actually worshipping – glorifying and wallowing in – is their own evil urges, all that is most depraved and vile in the human psyche). The more Islamic Pakistan becomes the uglier and nastier it becomes.
Shobhna Kapoor says
Hindus in Pakistan need to go to India instead of organizing these conferences. The time is ripe as Modi’s BJP is in power in India. Get out Hindus before you face annihilation or conversion. Get out Hindus because dhimmitude is no way to live life. Get out Hindus because there is no hope for you in Pakistan.
Jaladhi says
I am sure these Pakistani Hindus would like to get out if India will help them!! Just last year or so there was a group of Hindus from Multan who came to India on pilgrimage visas or so and they did not want to go back. I don’t know what happened to them – whether they were resettled in India or forced to go back!! I wonder what will be the reaction of US administration if somebody suggested to give them shelter in US?? Probably it will never happen, but on the other hand Muslims from all over the world are gladly given asylum because they are “persecuted” in their own Muslim countries!! Hypocrites!!

Recently, I was in a discussion with a Serb settled in New York. He denounced His Excellency Slobodan Milosevic as a “Fascist” and an “Adolf Hitler”. Yet, when I visited Yugoslavia while Belgrade was being bombed by the Anglo-American war criminals and H.E.Milosevic was putting up a desperate rear guard action to protect the Slavs from Islamic tyranny and Sharia as Anglo-America has visited upon the Yazidis, the Serbs worshiped him. Such is the Stockholm Syndrome. The Serbs sacrificed H.E. Milsovic, Radic and others to save their own skins while the US-NATO-Islam axis walks free under the victors’ justice that decrees that the more powerful and the wealthy may massacre, gang rape, vandalise and do whatsoever they please and, to boot, convict their victims of “war crimes”. A lesson that has been well learned by India’s corrupt, incompetent, arithmetically and integrity-wise challenged judiciary. But I say al this as a back drop to what is happening in our neighbourhood. Our Hindu brethren, each one of whom would rather breathe the air of freedom than the foul air of Islamic Pakistan are being forced to declare Islam a religion of peace and celebrate Mahomet who set the example for all Moslems to follow at Mecca with mass rape, genocide, sexual and other enslavement, vandalism, and all manners of sadistic crime that are inscribed in the Quran and the Hadiths as the “religion” of Islam:
Ravi M says
The data given at the very beginning of this article is incorrect, it says, “In 1951, Hindus were 22% of the Pakistani population (including East Pakistan, now Bangladesh). In 1997, the percentage of Hindus was 1.6% in Pakistan and 10.2% in Bangladesh”
The correct information is that Hindus were 22.0% of the population of East Pakistan (now Bangladesh) -and not for the then entire Pakistan including West Pakistan (now Pakistan). According to 1951 Pakistan Census, the Hindu population of West Pakistan was already down to 1.4% which may have been a slight under-count.
1951 Census of Pakistan counted 7.2 million displaced persons (4.7 million in West, 2.7 in East). The 1951 Census of India counted 7.3 million displaced persons in India (6.7 from West Pakistan and 0.7 from East Pakistan). That means 6.7 million Hindus and Sikhs had migrated out of West Pakistan into India between 1947 and 1951 (neglecting natural growth), add say 0.5 million who died during migration. Hindus and Sikhs comprised about 20% of pre-partition population of what is now Pakistan. Much of the drop to 1.6% had already happened right after partition.
This does not negate the fact that the Hindus that stayed back in Pakistan have suffered as a minority. But the numbers at the beginning of the article are totally misleading.
