Razia sultan

Razia Sultana of Delhi (1205-1240) Contributed by Prof. Dr. Nazeer Ahmed, PhD. Islam liberated men and women from the shackles of slavery and made them masters of the world. The history of the Mamlukes illustrates this observation. In the 9th and 10th centuries, there was a brisk slave trade down the Volga River, near the Caspian Sea. The Vikings raided Europe with unrelenting ferocity in search of booty and slaves. Eastern Europe, fossilized as it was between local fiefdoms, was a particular target of these raids. Men, women and children were captured in northern and eastern Europe, brought down the Volga River and sold to Muslim and Jewish merchants. Ibn Fadlun gives a graphic picture of the deplorable conditions in the Viking slave ships. The root word in Arabic for Mamluke is m-l-k (malaka, to own). The European slaves were in great demand in Muslim courts because the men made excellent soldiers and the women were sought for their fair skin. Young Mamluke men were trained in special camps as bodyguards, taught the precepts of Islam and inducted into the army. The Spanish court of Cordoba as well as the Fatimid court in Cairo employed Mamluke bodyguards. However, it was with the rise of the Turks that the Mamlukes came into their own. The Turks displaced the Arabs and the Persians from the centers of power in Asia during the 9th and 10th centuries and became kingmakers. As the Mamlukes were inducted into the armies and the Turks dominated the armed forces, the slaves ca...

Sultan Razia, 18th century. Alamy. Like much of her reign, the accession of Razia to the sultanate of Delhi is shrouded in mystery. The only contemporary chronicle is the Tabaqat-i-Nasiri of Minhaj Siraj Juzjani, whose career had thrived during her brief tenure and who was full of praise for her skills. ‘A great sovereign’, he wrote of her: ‘Sagacious, just, beneficent, the patron of the learned, a dispenser of justice, the cherisher of her subjects.’ But what good did it do her, he asked, if men failed to take her seriously? Her father Shams ud-Din Iltutmish had noticed her leadership qualities and named her as his heir. Nevertheless, after his death, his eldest surviving son Firuz took power and swiftly proved the wisdom of Iltutmish’s judgement. Firuz’s inclinations, Juzjani wrote, ‘were wholly towards buffoonery, sensuality, and diversion … He had a passion for frolic, and for riding elephants, and the whole class of elephant drivers derived immense benefit from his riches.’ Firuz’s mother, Shah Turkan, controlled the affairs of state. She tried to have Razia assassinated, but Razia foiled the plot and, rousing the support of the people of Delhi, overthrew and executed her brother in the autumn of 1236. She came out of purdah and appeared in public in sultan’s clothing. It was a tumultuous period. The Mongols threatened to the west, while internal stability was undermined by various fractious forces, including Turkish nobility and rebellious provincial governors. Razia...

On the eve of October 1240, two armies faced one another ready for battle. This was a last-ditch effort by Sultan Razia to recapture her throne which had been usurped by her brother. Razia was the first and only female monarch of the Forging the Future Female Sultan Razia was the only daughter born to the third and greatest Delhi sultan, Iltutmish, and his favorite wife, Terken Khatun. Iltutmish celebrated her birth with great pomp and ceremony, going so far as to hold grand festivals. Women of the era were taught to be submissive to men. A contemporary 13 th century Persian historian, Minhaj-i-Siraj, sums up the atmosphere when he said: “A queen’s rule went against the ideal social order created by God, in which women were supposed to be subordinate to men”. From childhood, Razia was trained in the art of warfare, horsemanship, diplomacy and administration. Her training was supervised by her father Iltutmish and Malik Yaqut, an Abyssinian Razia’s training was supervised by her father Sultan Iltutmish. (Avani Kamal / Google Arts & Culture ) In 1229, Iltutmish’s eldest son, Nasir-ud-din Mahmud, died while fighting against the The ancient Egyptian Razia’s Ascension to the Throne Razia’s ascension to the throne was not smooth. When Sultan Iltutmish passed away on 29 th April 1236, the nobility were not enamored with the idea of a female ruler. They therefore elevated her brother, Rukn-ud-din Firoz, as the new Sultan, much to Razia’s disappointment. However, Firoz’s reign was ...
