Answer:
Explanation:
The Prabandha Chintamani gives the number of battles between Muhammad and Prithviraj as 22.
First Battle of Tarain:
The First Battle of Tarain was fought in 1191 between the Ghurids against the Chahamanas and their allies, near Tarain (modern Taraori in Haryana, India). The Chahamana king Prithiviraj Chauhan defeated the Ghurid king Mohammed Ghouri, who avenged this defeat at the Second Battle of Tarain a year later.
Second Battle of Tarain:
The Second Battle of Tarain was fought in 1192 by the Ghurids against the Chahamanas and their allies, near Tarain (modern Taraori in Haryana, India). The Ghurid king Mu'izz al-Din Muhammad Ghori defeated the Chahamana king Prithiviraj Chauhan thus avenging his earlier defeat at the First Battle of Tarain.
Prithviraj Chauhan's forces had defeated the Ghurids at the First Battle of Tarain in 1191. The Ghurid king Mu'izz al-Din, who was seriously injured in the battle, returned to Ghazni, and made preparations to avenge his defeat.
Historians generally date the second battle of Tarain to 1192, although there is a possibility that it happened in late 1191.
