TIMELINE of Indo-Muslim history
Compiled by FWP for classroom use. Some dates are given variously in different sources; I have made the best choices I could, and will be on the lookout to improve things in the future. Among the sources I've used are:
1) the timeline of Muslim history at Princeton [ site ]
2) S. A. A. Rizvi, The Wonder that was India, Part II (New Delhi: Rupa, 1987)
3) Burton Stein, A History of India (Oxford: Blackwell Publishers, 1998)
4) S. M. Ikram, History of Muslim Civilization in India and Pakistan (Lahore: Institute of Islamic Culture, 1993). Reprint of 2nd ed., 1966 (1st ed. 1961)
Answer:
Muhammad bin Qasim al-Thaqafi (Arabic: محمد بن القاسم الثقفي, romanized: Muḥammad bin al-Qāsim al-Thaqafī; c. 695 – 715[1]), also known by the laqab (honorific epithet) of Imad ad-Din (Arabic: عماد الدين, romanized: ʿImād al-Dīn), was an Arab military commander of the Umayyad Caliphate who led the Muslim conquest of Sindh and Multan from the last Brahman king, Raja Dahir in the battle of Aror. He was the first Muslim to have successfully captured Hindu territories and initiate the early Islamic India.
