Abstract	:	This project is going to explore Muslim interactions with Hindus from the Classical Period through the Modern Period through an Islamic lens. Due to a deterioration of relations and discourse between the two groups, a framework will be provided through Fed Donner�s Muhammad and the Believers and Ibn Qayyim�s discussion of Ahl al-Kitab (People of the Book) to show that a discourse between the two groups should not be seen as alien. Then a survey of early interactions, the Mughal period, and the Modern period will be provided through discussions of scholars and their scholarship from their time. Through these discussions, sufficient evidence will be provided to show that Hindus have been seen in a tolerant light from Muslim scholars, even possibly People of the Book.
