Zia Barani: Good Sultan and Ideal Polity
Himanshu Roy and Muzaffar Alam
Zia Barani1 (1283–1359) was the most important political thinker of the Delhi Sultanate, particularly during the reigns of Alauddin Khalji, Muhammad bin Tughlaq and Firoz Tughlaq. He represented the idea of political expediency in the Islamic history. His Fatawa-i-Jahandari (AD 1357), written as nasihat (advices) for the Muslim kings, is a classic work on statecraft which can be compared with Kautilya’s Arthashastra and Machiavelli’s Prince. For his emphasis on following the Shariat (laws of the Quran and the Prophet’s tradition) (Advice II) and his views on the Hindus (Advice XI.2), however, he has been called a conservative, a fundamentalist and a bigot as compared
Answer:
Zia Barani (1283-1359) was the most important political thinker of the Delhi sultanate, particularly during the reigns of Alauddin Khilji, Muhammad BinTughlaq and Firoz Tughlaq.
Explanation:
Barani distinguished between the Sultan's personal life and his political role.
According to both aspects, he gave in him an ideal person-noble born, preferably belonging to the monarch's family. He has to have an innate sense of justice, wise enough to understand the deception and conspiracies of the wicked, understand the importance of his time and divide it judiciously between his personal needs and political requirement and following the path of the Shariat, this path laid down that he was an agent of god on earth to do the ‘welfare’ of the common people.
As far as following the Shariat was concerned, Barani conceded that the Sultan might choose to be lax in the personal realm. Still, he opposed the idea of laxity in the political sphere as it might result in disease in the administration.
He also advised the Sultan to possess the attributes of terror, prestige, pride, high status, domination, and the superiority.
The essential ingredient of his political existence was the courage to react to any idea or anyone’s wishes at the appropriate time. Nonetheless, he must desist from five mean qualities: falsehood, changeability, deception, wrathfulness and injustice.
