When did Buddhism, Zoroastrianism and Hinduism disappear from Central Asia (modern "stans")? They certainly must have lingered for some time after the Muslim conquest. Was it Timur who finally destroyed them?

Timur lane litteraly genocided them

I remember reading somewhere that Iran was still majority Zoroastrian until the Safavid dynasty

yeah but that doesn't change the fact that buddhism, zoroastrianism, and hinduism disappeared because the followers were all massacred

it just so happened that the muslims survived to spread their faith and the others didnt.

budhism is still strong in Mongolia
some elements of tengrianism still persist in central asia despite being officially frowned upon
shamanish is still big among buryats and other people in Siberia
