Why do you think the author calls the ruler a 'foe to the Muslim faith'? Class 7

Answer:

The author calls the Gurjara-Pratihāra ruler a 'foe to the Muslim faith' because he actively resisted Arab invasions and defended his kingdom against them.

His strong military and wealth made him a significant threat to the spread of Islam in India.

This resistance was seen as a challenge to the Muslim rulers, who viewed non-Muslims as infidels.
