AnswEr:-
=> Raziya Sultana was only daughter of the then slave Sultan "Iltutmish". She was the first woman ruler who became the queen of Delhi Sultanate. After the death of her father Raziya ascended the throne. She didn't share her powers with Turkish nobles. This was the starting problem with their Nobles. Raziya wanted to keep the total powers with her. She succeeded in that. Then she want to suppress her nobles. She succeeded in this too. Raziya also defended the Mongol invasions. But she failed in conquering Gwalior.
The decline of Raziya was started from her behaviour towards Islamic rules. She opposed some Islamic rules which hurt the sentiments of orthodox Muslims. As, she dressed herself as a man. She used to ride horse. She visited people with out veil. She gave up purdah system. She herself thought as a king. This led to the conspiracy and the nobles started protesting against her. Though she ruled 4 years in her career. She married Altuniya.
Above factors are the main reasons for the downfall of the only woman ruler of Delhi Sultanate, Raziya Sultana.
