What happened to Sindh after Muhammad bin Qasim?

The Arab conquest of Sindh in the early 8th century changed the political history of the region. But when Muhammad bin Qasim was recalled, what happened to the territory he had conquered?

For the next three centuries, Sindh went through a remarkable political transformation.

Arab governors came and went. Local rulers negotiated with the new authorities. Mansurah emerged as a major political and commercial center. Multan followed a very different political path. Islam gradually spread, while older religious and social traditions continued for generations.

Over time, Arab political power itself became rooted in the local politics of Sindh. The Habbarid dynasty emerged in Mansurah and ruled for more than a century.

Then came the Ghaznavids.

The Habbarid political order disappeared, and a new chapter began. From this historical transition, another name would emerge in the later sources:

The Soomras.

But who were they? Where did they come from? And how did a new local political power emerge in Sindh after centuries of Arab rule?

This documentary explores the three centuries between the conquest of Sindh and the rise of new local powers, using Arab and Persian historical sources, Chinese travelers' accounts, inscriptions, archaeological evidence, and modern historical research.

Where historical sources disagree, or where the evidence is limited, those uncertainties are clearly identified.
