Answer: As a historian Mahmud of Ghaznavi was seen as a character who went through leaps and bounds in order to achieve success. He destroyed many temples in his quest for conquering and that hurt the feelings of many Hindus, because temples are their place of worship, thus this act was seen as an act of offense on his behalf.

Ghaznavi and his fellow acquaintances were able to tap into the riches and the resources of Hindus. Because this all came to them in the form of booties of war, i.e. the spoils of war. Other things included the Hindus becoming slaves. For instance, Nandana was a place from where Ghaznavi took home many Hindu slaves.
