Ans: (a) Dahir
Explanation: The Hindu king at the time of the invasion of Muhammad bin Qasim on Sindh was (a) Dahir.
Dahir was the ruler of the Sindh region during the early 8th century. He belonged to the Brahmin dynasty and was known as Raja Dahir. When Muhammad bin Qasim led the Arab expedition in 712 A.D., Dahir opposed the invading forces, resulting in a military confrontation.
The battle between Muhammad bin Qasim’s forces and Raja Dahir’s army took place near the city of Debal in Sindh. Despite putting up a fierce resistance, Raja Dahir was eventually defeated by the Arab forces, leading to the fall of his kingdom and the establishment of Muslim rule in the region.
