c12.20

" I have heard of your two or three qualities which I have never seen in any religious king. One of these is that you have degraded the Hindus to such an extent that their wives and children beg their bread at the doors of Muslims. You are, in doing so, rendering a great service to religion. All your sins will be pardoned by reason of this single act of merit and if it be otherwise, hold my skirt on the day of judgment.⁶"
