Accession to the throne:
Raziyyat-ud-din commonly known as Razia Begum or Sultana Razia was the first and the last woman among the Muslims as well as the Hindus to occupy the throne of Delhi.
Her rule according to contemporary historian Minhaj, lasted for three years six months and six days.
Iltutmish had been succeeded by his son Ruskum-ud- din who proved to be an incompetent ruler and therefore was deposed by the nobility. His sister Razia was chosen to be the ruler.
To give a befitting reply to a section of people that being a woman, Razia was unfit for royal office, she took the following measures:
1. She gave up her ‘ Purdah’ and started appearing in the court in male attire wearing a ‘Kuva’ (Coat) and a ‘Kulah’ (Cap).
2. She started horse riding, hunting and commanding the army etc.
3. She took a keen interest in all the administrative activities of the state.
4. She herself appointed several Iqtadars, commanders, and other officers.
5. She conducted the affairs of the state in an open ‘durbar’.
Razia’s failure:
Minhaj-us-siraj, a contemporary historian has aptly described the causes of her failure in these words, “She was endowed with all qualities befitting a king-beneficent, the patron of the learned, a dispenser of justice etc. But she was not born of right sex and so in the estimation of men all these virtues were useless.” Thus being a woman was an important cause of her failure.
