In reality, Babur was a disgrace in name of Islam. To know Babur better, let us not depend on claims of Hindu fundamentalists or biased right-winged historians. Let us instead hear from the horses mouth. Let us review the autobiography of Babur Baburnama which is available in all prominent languages. For purpose of this article, we shall refer to the English translation by Annette Susannah Beveridge published in 1922. This translation was done directly from whatever portions of original Turkish manuscript were available. These suffice to establish the true character of Babur.

- Page 232: He writes that his gang beheaded the innocent Afghans who came to him for truce, and then created a pillar from these heads. The same feat was repeated in Hangu where 200 Afghan heads were killed to create a pillar. - Page 370: Because people of Bajaur did not believe in Islam, more than 3000 people were murdered and their wives and children were taken as captives. - Page 371 Several heads of captured people were sent to Kabutl, Balkh and other places to spread news of victory. - Page 371 A tower of cut heads was setup on ground to celebrate victory. - Page 371 There was a wine party on Muharram where we drank whole night. (Translator notes here that Babur was a heavy drunkard till end of his life). A large portion of Baburnama describes these wine parties. - Page 373 Babur took such intoxicants once that he could not go even for prayers. He further says that had he taken such intoxicants today, he would not have produced half the intoxication. - Page 374 Babur fathered several children from several women in his brothel. His first wife promised to adopt all these illegitimate children, whenever they are born in future, because several children born to her could not live. It looks as if Baburs brothel was akin to a poultry farm for chicken production! - Page 385-388 Babur was so happy with birth of Humayun that he went to a boat with his friends and drank wine whole night and ate narcotics. Then they fought with each other due to intoxication and party broke up. After a similar party, he vomited a lot and forgot everything by morning. - Page 527 A party was given in the pillared porch of the domed building in Agra (referring to Taj Mahal falsely associated with Shah Jahan) Almost all pages of his autobiography describe how he looted, threatened, murdered and plundered wherever he went and ate haram meat. Note that the way Babur includes all this in his autobiography implies that he was proud of all this. One would shudder to imagine what all other crimes he had committed that do not form part of this self-eulogizing biography.
Summary
A. Babur was anything but follower of Islam, going by his misdeeds that can put any human to shame. And if indeed some perverts assert that Babur was still a Muslim as per their definition of Islam, then there can be nothing more disgusting than that definition of Islam. B. Babri Masjid was named after Baburs homosexual partner Babri. C. Muslims should stop associating themselves with perverted misdeeds of these looters and terrorists who were anything but followers of Islam. They should stop calling these criminals Muslims and their noble ancestors. Instead they should associate with our true noble ancestors like Ram and Krishna which most common Muslims actually do.
