Was Khilji really a bad guy? - Page 2

But that was considered normal back then became women weren't considered human beings. They were properties of men. Khilji had the same beliefs but was also a bit crazy. Is that enough to call him the bad guy?

Just because it was more accepted then doesn't make it right.....He and others like him were still bad guys....because there were others who fought for the honor of women and tried to protect them.

There were kings who conquered other kingdoms but adopted the citizens, treated them as their own, giving as much freedom or laws which their older kingdoms had.... And there were kings who conquered kingdoms, looted the citizens, killed civilian men, destroyed their religious places, raped the women and ran havoc in the conquered kingdoms, those were the villains....

Even in those times when kingdoms would fight each other for expansion, there were laws which every kingdoms followed.... Firstly fight was against the king and his army, the civilian were not supposed to be killed. Religious places were supposed to be honoured Even if the winning king didn't follow that religion..... There were time allotted to fight, that is day time.... Sunset was to be used for rest and recuperation and treating the gravely injured and do final rites of the dead soldiers.... Even the dead bodies of the enemy soldiers deserved full honour and respect.... and many more laws like these.,..

So there are few kings who didn't follow the above rules and hence they became notorious as villains...

Most probably he wasn't some barbaric cavemen who didn't know how to eat as shown in slb's khilji to please a certain section. He was just another conqueror like many others out there who was good for one side and bad for another side , depends which side you are looking from .

Also the reason why Padmavati and the women of the palace committed Jauhar was cause Khilji and his army supposedly raped even the dead bodies. They were such psychos...

A king who didn't mind killing his enemy from behind ( the way his general killed Ratan Singh), what can be expected from such guy...

Its all a lie, there's no love and life's always throwing Lemons. Only truth is power.
