Same people who made the meme that Russia can't be invaded.
They're largely Western inventions to justify their own failures.

The Mongols and Ghznavids (early Turks, so basically Mongols) were the ones to actually make Afghanistan an Islamic country.
Also, that map is great.

They were just invaded, not conquered. Islam started being practiced in the 7th century in Afghanistan, when Arabs took over Herat, but when they reached Kabul they were fought off. In the 10th century the vast majority of Afghans became Muslims during the Ghaznavid dynasty, with the exception of Nuristanis who became Muslim in the 19th century.

I was under the impression that, depending on how you define "conquered", it never was. Lots of nations have launched campaigns into Afghanistan and wrecked shit, and even temporarily occupied it, but hasn't pretty much everyone struggled to maintain control or properly administer it? Did nations like the Seleucids and Persian dynasties really rule it, or did they maintain weak and tenuous influence over it and color it in on a map as there's?

Greek was exclusive to an elite. It wouldn't be the major language just like pashto isn't (and pasthun warriors created Afghanistan and gave it the name).
