In Arabic, it's ''ghazwa al-hind'' (غزوة الهند), but it's more known in it's Urdu/Persian version ''ghazwa-e-hind'', which uses the Urdu/Persian [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ez%C4%81fe ezafe] ("-e-" meaning "of").

==The hadiths== | |||
This one is graded hasan (good). It promises Muslims being safe from fire, if they go and kill people in India: | |||
{{Quote|{{Al Nasai||1|25|3177}} (hasan) from The Book of Jihad, chapter "Invading India"| | |||
It was narrated that Thawban, the freed slave of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), said: | |||
"The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: 'There are two groups of my Ummah whom Allah will free from the Fire: The group that '''invades India''' (تَغْزُو الْهِنْدَ, ''taghzoo al-hind''), and the group that will be with 'Isa bin Maryam, peace be upon him.'" | |||
}} | |||
From the same source we have also two weak hadiths: | |||
{{Quote|{{Al Nasai||1|25|3176}} (weak)| | |||
It was narrated that Abu Hurairah said: | |||
"The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) promised that we would '''invade India''' (غَزْوَةَ الْهِنْدِ, ''ghazwa al-hind''). If I live to see that I will sacrifice myself and my wealth. If I am killed, I will be one of the best of the martyrs, and if I come back, I will be Abu Hurairah Al-Muharrar." | |||
