One of the king's widows, Queen Rani Bai, resisted the invading forces at the fortress of Rawar.
The victorious conqueror Muhammad bin Qasim made the dowager queen Rani Ladi his concubine (personal sex slave) by nikah,[1] while the two princesses, being unmarried young virgins, were reserved for the Caliph's personal use, and sent on as presents to the Caliph Sulayman ibn Abd al-Malik for his harem in the capital of Damascus.
[2] The Chach Nama narrates a version in which Surya Devi played a role in the death of Muhammad bin Qasim.
As a response, the Caliph ordered that Muhammad was wrapped and stitched in oxen hides,[3] and sent to Syria, which resulted in his death en route from suffocation.
Upon discovering this subterfuge, the Caliph is recorded to have been filled with remorse and ordered the sisters buried alive in a wall.
