Ottoman Empire or the Caliphate was not an avg sized country as its successor entity of today's Turkey but a huge theocracy spanning hundreds of ethnicities, crores of population, entire West Asia till Iran/Persia including Arab Peninsula, entire North Africa on mediterranean, southeast Europe, South Caucasus, Egypt. Mecca and Medina came under the Caliph ie Khalifa ie Uthman / Usman / Ottoman Emperor.
All islamic states in world were bound to pay tributes to them so our Mughal Empire ie Saltanat e Taimuriya (official name self identified by the Mughals) happily paid lakhs to millions of ₹ every year to Constantinople which is billions to even trillions in today's ₹ looted as jizya / jaziya and a gamut of harshest taxes and outright plunder from Hindus. Usman / Ottoman Empire aka caliphate of Turkey started to decline due to decline of Mughals in India caused by Maratha Empire as Mughals were unable to send money to caliphate, at the same time British piracy on high seas in mediterranean, Red Sea, Persian Gulf, Black Sea and arab sea gradually finished the Ottoman piracy and jizya on seas.
Ottomans(14-20th Century CE), Mughals(16-19th Century CE) and Safavids in Iran/Persia (16-18th Century CE) all were central Asian Turkic / Turkomongol in origins so they shared a brotherhood. Mughals paid millions of₹ tributes to Safavids as well apart from Ottomans because out of these three India was the richest by multiple times and mughals performed their duties diligently by sharing the loot with biradars of blood as well as mono-belief system. By 18 C mughals were unable to fund both others so they kept funding caliphate only leading to weakening of Safavids first, next to go were mughals themselves and after them naturally the Ottoman caliphate went away. Each decline had a natural gap of about a century. Empires don't vanish in a day.
The muslims in India always felt aligned to Khalifa aka Caliph ie the Ottoman Emperor in this case so when Turkish Empire got defeated in 1918 after WW1 and it was rightfully reduced to Turkey only while two dozens of countries got liberated the Indian muslims were enraged and a violent bloody protest pan-India occurred from 1918 to 1921 to reinstate the Khalifa. The riots and violent protests were called Khilafat Andolan ie Caliphate Movement. We're taught Khilafat means protest, no, it means the Caliphate. MK Gandhi fought for restoration of Caliphate and compelled ConG leadership to run the movement. Think. The Khilafat Andolan would've run unabated if not for the Moplah / Mapilla in Kerala getting too emboldened and killing plus raping and converting thousands to lakhs of kafirs as well as declaring two districts in North Kerala as Islamic State compelling the Brits to use its might to crush it as after all the Brits too were running a colonial empire and it shouldn't be threatened by a new empire or any restoration of Caliphate. British did not crush Moplah terror out of any love for non muslims. MK Gandhi justified Moplah violence and said that Hindus should embrace it bravely to attain peace.
These posts are for everyone especially who think they can live in isolation or politics around them doesn't matter or life around them is so innocent or everybody is brother and human as politicians, babus, media and judiciary tells us. If it were so there'd be no partition itself to create theocratic states cutting up India into three resulting in displacement of crores permanently, murder of millions, gangrapes millions and conversions of crores, four wars ie Ghazwat Al Hind by illegitimate country of Pakistan, thousands of riots and terrorist attack within truncated India till date resulting in deaths of thousands to lakhs of our citizens from 1947 till date, ethnic cleansing of Kashmiri Hindus, yet the schematically systemised concocted bogey & fake accusations of Hindus being "communal, intolerant" and even "terrorists" whence and wherein Hindus have been only victims and pure victims of centuries of aggression from within and without.
These events didn't happen in Andromeda galaxy on an alien planets with alien life forms. Our own brethren in our own sacred lands were and still are victims of alien imperialist totalitarian exclusivist ideologies with only violent results upon us. We lost 1/3 of civilisational territory, 1/6 of our people and 1/4 of our sacred tIrtha~s ie pilgrimage centres to what's now Pakistan, Bangladesh, China occupied Tibet and Afghanistan! Kashmir, Kerala, West Bengal, NE already simmering not counting the heat erupting every now and then intermittently in every state. Next could be your families, home, lands, villages, towns and cities. See the anti CAA protests and ho they're fighting for Ummah at the cost of kafir victims therein.
While proselytising crusades from outside and inside our country for centuries as well is a topic hitherto unknown and untouched.
