Question

In simple words what is iqta and iqtadar?​

Answer 1

Iqta' (Persian: اقطاع‎) was an Islamic practice of tax farming that became common in Muslim Asia during the Buyid dynasty. The prominent Orientalist Claude Cahen described the Iqta' as follows: a form of administrative grant, often (wrongly) translated by the European word "fief".

Iqtadars were governors of small land areas or iqtas. Iqtadars were basically military commanders who had to accompany the king during wars.
