NOTES

This book focuses predominantly on the examination of Hindu temples that were destroyed, desecrated, and converted into mosques and khanqahs, shedding light on the underlying ideology of iconoclasm within the Muslim context. While Ayodhya maintains significance within the narrative, it does not serve as the central focus of discussion. The text diligently adheres to truth, distinguishing itself from secularist and Marxist writers by refraining from the rewriting and fabrication of history. Throughout its exploration, the book delves into various theological elements associated with the iconoclastic ideology, providing a comprehensive perspective on the historical transformations of sacred spaces
