Say Hinduism or Sanathana Dharma (SD) never developed in India. The homogenous animilistic or shamanism got retained by different groups with no coherent religion. Come greeks and India gets dabbled in greek gods to a little extent. Zorastrianism and Jewish religions also present due to merchants. Then come the islam and like any other SE Asia whole india becomes islamic. As there is no SD no buddhism, jainism, sikhism also. what is the impact of this scenarios

1. Islamic India with a billion muslims supporting islamic causes in South East Asia
2. No Buddhism, how will this impact countries like China, Japan, Korea, Vietnam, Cambodia, Srilanka, Thailand etc
3. Once India becomes islamic would the muslims have run a conquest of nearby asian countries making half the world islamic(east)and half the world christian(west)

In the OTL i feel India always acted as a stopping point for islam.
