DALIT THE LOWER CASTE -
My Intro:
Hello guys this is me,the editor of this blog (TheDaniShit.blogspot.com),Danish Abbas.And so I've made a research on this Lower Caste.While my research was coming to end I found a Connection between Story of Prophet Musa / Mosses and story of Dalits.Enjoy the Amazing History!Who are Dalits:
'Dalit' also meaning 'oppressed' were known as 'The Untouchables'.They were considered by the upper cast to be outside the category of Caste System. Dalit status is associated with the occupation ritually impure; such as dumping of human waste, butchering, or removal of rubbish.Dalits worked as manual labours.Dalits were commonly banned from participating in Indian Social Life.For example, they were not allowed to enter schools or temples and were required to stay outside the villages.Moreover other caste took precautions to prevent incidental contact with Dalits.And if one of them had touched the upper caste(even by mistake) they would burn him/her and sometimes pour melted iron rod into their ear.
Their Releigon:
Most of the Dalits practice(d) Hinduism.And were the worshipped Cow.Moreover their elements of worship are mixed with Judaism.
POINTS TO BE NOTED:
I am giving this heading so that it could be easy for you to understand the connection.
- Untouchables
- Worship Cow
- Hinduism, mixed with Judasism
STORY OF PROPHET MOSSES
Well you must've heard the story of Prophet Musa parting the River Nile and making the way.There is something to it!While Prophet Musa was travelling a man joined him(his name Starts with 'S'..I am going to call him Hypocrite).This man was really a spy from Pharon.He always stayed behind the group to know what is going on.When Prophet parted the river he saw it with his eyes wide open.Further he saw another man infront of him but behind the group on a horse.It is narrated that he way too beautiful.Moreover he saw that the horse on which he was sitting on was unique and wherever he would put its feet that soil would get lighten up.And the man sitting on the horse would collect the soil into his bag.
After everything was calmed down the hypocrite asked Prophet who was that man he said it was Angel sent down by God.
There was a peaceful rule of Prophet but after sometime Prophet's God called Prophet to Mountain(where Prophet would talk to him) for 20 days.Prophet made arrangements for his empire for 20 days.He handed all the precious things to Prophet Harun,his brother(including the bag which holded the soil).
So when prophet Musa arrived his destination, God extended his stay for 20 days more.
After 20 days when Prophet did not came back, the hypocrite started telling people that Prophet is dead.And God had killed him.Everyone lost their hope.But the hypocrite had planned it out.He stole the bag and ordered people to collect whatever gold they had.People agreed and collected the gold.The hypocrite further said to melt the gold and give it a shape of Cow,everyone did it.
He placed the Statue of cow in centre and asked the people to sing and dance around it.There was nothing such as dance at that time and he showed them how to dance(DANCE STARTED FROM HERE).They Danced.The hypocrite said that now he would give life to the cow.He took out soil from his bag and placed it in the cow's mouth.The Cow started making noise.And people acknowledged him as the Prophet after Musa.
After 40 days when Musa returned he saw what was happening.And went to see the hypocrite.When the hypocrite saw Prophet Musa,it is in Quran that his body sarted itching and he started running away into the woods.The itching now got so intense that he took off his clothes and started shouting "NO ONE TOUCH ME!NO ONE TOUCH ME!"
So it is in History that he now escaped to India.And his descendants are the 'DALITS'
For them, people had made a ritual not touch them / untouchables.
