ALright it seeems u didn't do ur homework of searching the net. SInce I can't show u history books physically, so allow me to enlighten u with some timeline!

Entry and rise of ISLAM in south Asia

The initial entry of Islam into South Asia came in the first century after the death of the Prophet Muhammad. The Umayyad caliph in Damascus sent an expedition to Balochistan and Sindh in 711 led by Muhammad bin Qasim (for whom Karachi's second port is named). The expedition went as far north as Multan but was not able to retain that region and was not successful in expanding Islamic rule to other parts of India. Coastal trade and the presence of a Muslim colony in Sindh, however, permitted significant cultural exchanges and the introduction into the subcontinent of religious teachers. Muslim influence grew with conversions. ok so anybody using this as a resouce should know that anybody can put any kind of information in here so you might not be getting the correct information.

Almost three centuries later, the Turkics, Persians and the Afghans spearheaded the Islamic conquest in India through the traditional invasion routes of the northwest. Mahmud of Ghazni (979-1030) led a series of raids against Rajput kingdoms and rich Hindu temples and established a base in Punjab for future incursions.

RAZIA SULTANA

) "throne name" Jalâlat ud-Dîn Raziyâ (Urdu:جلالت رضیہ الدین), usually referred to in history as Razia Sultan or Razia Sultana (Urdu: رضیہ سلطانہ ), was the only woman monarch to have ruled Delhi. She was born in 1205 and died in 1240. She was of Turkish ancestry and like some other Muslim princesses of the time, she was trained to lead armies and administer kingdoms if necessary.

MOST REMAINING NAMES U SAID OUTTA ur ignorance

In Muslim period of Delhi Sultanat (1192-1526) under slave, Khilji, Tughlak, Saiyyad, Lodi Dynasty and Mughals (1526-1656), Jats having lost their kingdom, states and social eminence, retired to the country-side controlling and tilling land with their swords girded round their wastes. They would draw the sword out of the scabbardd at the command of their Panchayat for the Muslim rulers if they are fighting against the invaders or against them if they are persecuting the Hindus. The Jats became the sons of soil.
