Answers
Answer:
On 10th November, Razia Sultan took over the throne from her brother Rukn-ud-din, who ruled the empire for 7 years. She was officially named as Jalal – ud – din Raziya.
● She adopted a gender-neutral attire giving up the traditional attire of Muslim women that includes Pardah. This made her a fury to the conservative Muslims.
● According to the Muslim culture, Razia should be called as Razia Sultana but Razia refused to be addressed as ‘Sultana’. In Muslim culture, Sultana refers to the wife or the mistress of a Sultan, a ruler. She proclaimed herself as Sultan, the ruler.
● Razia is one of those women and very few female rulers who took the throne from the front. She was the fifth ruler of the Mamluk Dynasty who is an important figure in the Islamic Civilization all across the world.
● In her reign, she got coins minted with the title – “Pillar of Women, Queen of the Times, Sultan Razia, daughter of Shamsuddin Iltutmish.”
● Razia’s family was not from the Nobel class. The ancestral roots of Razia trace to Turkish Seljuk Slaves.
● Her father Iltutmish entered Delhi as a slave in the reign of Qutb all-in Aibak. Aibak later laid the foundation of the Mamluk Dynasty.
● Aibak found Iltutmish, brave and honest to hold the position of a provincial governor. Aibak trusted him enough and further offered his daughter, Qutub Begum’s hand in his hand for marriage.
