Tengrism And Genghis Khan
The weatherman doesn’t claim to get his information from God. I’m not sure if Genghis Khan invited others to his religion, rather that many later Khans actually converted to Islam due to the similarity between the religions. Due to the lack of rituals in the religion, I don’t think a prophet would’ve given it, rather that it was just following the fitrah. Perhaps Temujin (Genghis Khan’s real name- the tile Genghis Khan means ‘supreme leader’ ), was communicated to by God through dreams but was not a prophet. And God communicated to him to conquer these lands and that he would conquer them and it was all part of God’s scheme. Could we say this?
When we associate anything to God, we need to have credible evidence from God Himself. “Perhaps” is never a good enough reason to associate anything to God. Can we have such an inclination about Genghis? Perhaps.
