Answers
Answer:
History
Explanation:
First Sultan of Delhi:
Qutb al-Din Aibak who was a former Turkic Mamluk slave of Muhammad Ghori was the first sultan of Delhi and his Mamluk dynasty conquered large areas of northern India.
a) Ain-i-Akbari
The Ain-i-Akbari: or the "Administration of Akbar", is a 16th-century detailed document recording the administration of the Mughal Empire under Emperor Akbar, written by his court historian, Abu'l Fazl in the Persian language. It forms Volume III and the final part of the much larger document, the Akbarnama (Account of Akbar), also by Abu'l-Fazl, and is itself in three volumes.
b) Taj-ul-Ma'asir
This renowned book was written by Hasan Nizami. It contains the history of Qutbuddin. The author was born in Nishapur but he had to leave his native land and settle down in Ghazni. Soon he migrated to Delhi and joined the services of Aibak, the then Viceroy of Ghori. He started writing this book in A.D. 1205 as desired by Aibak. After the death of Ghori when Aibak ascended the throne, the significance of Nizami enhanced and he in this book described in details the achievements of his patron. Some events of the reign of Iltutmish have also been depicted in it. Taj-ul-Maasir is the first historical narrative which throws light on the history of Delhi Sultanate. The author started writing this book in Arabic but soon he switched over to Persian.
c) Tuzk-i-Jahangiri
Tuzuk-e-Jahangiri or Tuzuk-i-Jahangiri or Jahangir-nama is the autobiography of Mughal Emperor Nur-ud-din Muhammad Jahangir. Also referred to as Jahangirnama, Tuzk-e-Jahangiri is written in Persian, and follows the tradition of his great-grandfather, Babur, who had written the Baburnama; though Jahangir went a step further and besides the history of his reign, he includes details like his reflections on art, politics, and also information about his family. He wrote the memoirs in stages through most of his life until stopping in 1624. His own manuscript was magnificently illustrated by his studio of painters, but the illustrations were very early dispersed, many being found in muraqqa (albums) compiled by his sons.
d) Tarikh-i-Frishta
The Tarikh-i Firishta is a very well known text. It is a general history of India, largely based upon earlier Persian historical works. It is generally regarded as one of the best of the later compilations based on earlier works, and it was relied upon heavily by early European historians of India such as Elphinstone. It was written by Muhammad Kasim Hindu Shah, Firishta during the reigns of Akbar and Jahangir, (c. late 16th century-early 17th century). Firishta was born in Astrabad on the Caspian Sea circa 1570 CE. His father, Gholam Ali Hindu Shah, traveled, with his family, to Ahmadnagar in India, in order to teach Persian to the prince Miran Husain Nizam Shah, with whom Firishta studied. In 1587 Firishta was serving as a captain of the guard for his former schoolmate’s father, King Murtuza Nizam Shah, when Prince Miram Husain deposed his father. He escaped death, the common fate of a deposed king’s attendants, on account of his former friendship with the prince. He then left Ahmadnagar and moved to Bijapur, reaching that city in 1589, where he served under King Ibrahim Adil Shah II. He completed his history during the reign of Jahangir, sometime during the early seventeenth century.
