This is why it is important to emphasize Indo-Arab relations
(which has a rich history from the Ancient Times to the Middle
Ages to the present day) as a counterweight to the Pakistanis
(who LARP as Turkic invaders). Once we see the difference
between the two ethnic groups, I hope Islamophobia itself in the
subcontinent will die down.

Agha Muhammad Yahya Khan was born in Chakwal, Punjab, British
India,[5] in a Qizilbash family on 4 February 1917, according to
the references written by Russian sources.[6][7] His family
descended from the elite soldier class of Iranian conqueror
Nader Shah.[8] He and his family were of Pashtun
origin.[9][10][11][12][13][14][15]

[Quote]
Nader belonged to the Turkoman Afshar tribe, which was one of
the seven tribes[a] of the Qizilbash who helped the Safavid
dynasty establish their power in Iran.[15][16] The Afshar tribe
had originally lived in the Turkestan region, but during the
13rd-century they moved to the Azerbaijan region in northwestern
Iran as a result of the expansion of the Mongol Empire.[17]
Nader was from the semi-nomadic Qirqlu clan of the Afshars,
which lived in the Khorasan region of northeastern Iran. They
had either settled there during the reign of the first Safavid
Shah Ismail I (r. 1501–1524), or had been resettled by
Shah Abbas I (r. 1588–1629) to fend off Uzbek attacks.
Regardless, Afshars moving to Khorasan was already taking place
by start of the 16th-century.[18][19]
Nader's native tongue was a southern Oghuz dialect, i.e.
"Turkish of Azerbaijan".[20] As he was growing up, he must have
swiftly learned Persian, which was the language of the cities
and high culture. But unless he was speaking to someone who
spoke only Persian, he always preferred to communicate in
Turkic.[21] His knowledge of Arabic is not documented, but it
seems doubtful given his lack of interest in literature and
theology.[22] Nader is known to have acquired reading and
writing skills at some point in its life, probably later on.[21]
Approximately three million people or more were nomadic or
semi-nomadic pastoralists in Iran in the beginning of the
18th-century, accounting for one-third of the country's
population. Strong ties of kinship as well as customs of helping
each other out with fights and finances kept their tribal groups
united. Despite being partially or fully absorbed into the more
progressive, urbanized Persian culture, many of them
nevertheless identified culturally with the Turco-Mongol
heritage that had been passed down from the era of Timur and
Genghis Khan. The settled population was seen by the semi-nomads
and nomads as inferior. [B]Nader was part of this heritage[/b],
which the British academic Michael Axworthy calls
"paradoxical".[21][/quote]
Shah should not be described as an Iranian, but a Turanian.

Mongolian chronicles sometimes traced the genealogy of Genghis
Khan back to the first mythical Kings of India. He was also said
to belong to the same lineage as the Buddha Shakyamuni, and
hence would technically be a Suryavanshi Kshatriya

History of Khorâsan and the Persianate World
@BiruniKhorasan
Timur wasn’t an “Muslim imperialist” but a steppe conqueror. His
role model was Genghis Khan not Prophet Muhammad. He butchered
more Muslims (mostly indiscriminately and for little reason)
than non-Muslims.
Using a historical barbarian to justify your own barbarism is
stupidity.

He wasn't Arab, but if we're talking about Muslim imperialists,
Timur alone killed several million people at a time when there
were only 300-400 million in the entire world
He died less than a century before Columbus' voyage. Why was
European imperialism worse than his?[/quote][/quote]

To answer the question:

both Timur and Genghis subjugated Mongols as well as
non-Mongols. Columbus etc., in contrast, never subjugated
"whites", but at the same time saw no problem with subjugating
"non-whites". This is why the latter are worse. The Western
colonial empires treated "whites" even from rival Western
colonial empires visiting their colonies better than
"non-whites" of their own empire who lived in the same colonies.

If you mention Babur on twitter a million sanghis pop up to say
Babur was a terrorist jihadi... In fact he never uses the word
Allah, prefering the term Tengri- the sky deity worshipped by
steppe peoples. According to his biographer Stephen Dale, "Babur
scarcely refers to Islam."[/quote]

The photo in your version is good, though. Not only the
physiognomy, but also even the facial expressions and body
language capture the Mongol archetype.

"facial expressions and body language capture the Mongol
archetype."
How? I can see the body language such as biceps flexing, but
what about facial expressions?
