Von Grunebaum Islamic conquest of India by the Arabs, the Turks and the Turko-Afghans, between the 8th and the 13th century was followed by the introduction and propagation of the mainstream of Islamic thought— theological, Sufi, and political, in India. The theological thought was mainly traditional until the eighteenth century when for the first time it faced a severe challenge, the loss of the political power and economic decline. The measure of originality in the theological and political thought of Muslim India is traceable mainly to the eighteenth century, when the problem of &Cadence had to be faced.
