Answer

The Ahaadith regarding the Jihaad in Hind have been narrated by Hadhrat Abu
Hurayra (Radhiallaahu Anhu). He says, ‘Nabi (Sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam)
has informed us about a battle to take place in Hind (India).’ Furthermore,
Hadhrat Abu Hurayra (Radhiallaahu Anhu) mentions, ‘If I have the opportunity
to be present therein, I will sacrifice myself and wealth. If I am killed, I
will be from amongst the greatest martyrs and if I return I will return as a
free person.

In another narration, it has been mentioned, ‘Two groups of my Ummat will be
saved from Jahannum. One being those fighting in the battle of Hind and the
other being those with Eesa (Alayhis salaam). (Nasaaiee vol.2 pg.93)

There is no mention in the Hadith regarding the actual time of that battle.
Some Ulama are of the opinion that it refers to the war against the British
from whom India was liberated. Many Ulama have taken part in that war.
