    Delhi Sultanate

    Muhammad Ghori defeated Jaichand in theBattle of Chandavar and this laid foundation of the Turkish Sultanate in India. But, in this situation, the Khokkars revolted in Punjab. Muhammad Ghori suppressed this revolt. But when he was coming back to Delhi in 1206, he was killed at the place called Damyak.

    Actually, he had no sons. So, the charge or responsibility of India’s Turkish Empire came in the hand of his Slave officers. In these circumstances, Qutubuddin Aibak saw a dream to start an independent Sultanate in India. So, from here, the story of Delhi Sultanate started.

    There were following Dynasties ruled under Delhi Sultanate,

    • Slave Dynasty.
    • Khalji Dynasty.
    • Tughlaq Dynasty.
    • Saiyyd Dynasty.
    • Lodhi Dynasty.

    DEEP within Anarkali Bazaar in Lahore, hidden from sight, amongst the tall shops on one side and peaking residential quarters on the other three, stands something peculiar, something that doesn’t fit in the local milieu, something ancient: the mausoleum of Sultan Qutb-ud-Din Aibak (1150-1210 CE).

    Apart from some vague resemblances of architecture inspired from Quwat-ul-Islam Mosque and Qutb Minar in Delhi and a small restaurant named Aibak Nehari right in front of the tomb, there is little memorable about the place. But if you have read Abraham Eraly’s Age of Wrath: A History of the Delhi Sultanate, and you stand next to the tomb of the sultan who established the Delhi Sultanate (1206-1526), with a little imagination you might feel a rush of euphoria mixed with pure dread.

    These paradoxical emotions are a result of Eraly taking full advantage of the broadest range of individuals who made up the court of the Delhi sultans: the rulers themselves, of course, but also eunuchs, slaves, assassins, patrons of culture, builders, poets, conservatives, noble benefactors, and warriors of all stripes.

    Drawing on this diverse cast and delving into captivating primary historical accounts, Eraly narrates the lives of historical figures in such an eloquent
