the straight forward answer is a big NO....there are many points to refer to in this case. Above all no where in CSS examinations, either in any optional or any compulsory subjects, should one pass on emotional judgments. the answer should be based upon strong reasoning..

Calling Mahmud a Warrior of Allah, would be a mistake. In the past many historians have made this blunder but as i explained earlier many of those historians were part of Mahmud's own court, or the court of some other Sultan of Delhi.

If anybody could come up with any reliable or concrete points, they are more than welcome to share them over here because as far as i have studied history i barely have come across a point which sounds reasonable or convicing to the mind.
