| '''Rai Sahiras II''' was the second-last [[Buddhist]] ruler of the Jat [[Rai Dynasty]]<ref name=harsha>[https://books.google.com/books?id=m68BAAAAMAAJ& ''Harsha and His Times: A Glimpse of Political History During the Seventh Century A.D. , Page 78''] by Bireshwar Nath Srivastava (Chowkhamba Sanskrit Series Office, 1976)</ref> during early the 7th century.<ref>[https://books.google.com/books?id=pfQLAAAAIAAJ& ''The historical background of Pakistan and its people''] by Ahmed Abdulla (Tanzeem Publishers, 1973)</ref> The Emperors of this dynasty were great patrons of [[Hinduism]] and [[Buddhism]]. This is consistent with the historical accounts from the times of Emperor [[Ashoka]] and [[Harsha]] because Indian monarchs never sponsored a state religion and usually patronized more than one faith.
