Question : 9

Consider the following statements:

  • Assertion (A): Balban inscribed coins in the memory of the deceased Khalifa.
  • Reason (R): The destruction of the Baghdad Khilafat was the heaviest blow on the Muslim power.
Select the correct answer from the codes given below:

a) Both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explanation of A.

b) A is true, but R is false.

c) Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.

d) A is false, but R is true.

Answer: (a)

Both the given statements are true but R is not the correct explanation of A. Since Sultan Nasiruddin did not have male heir, after his death, Balban declared himself the Sultan of Delhi. Balban ascended the throne in 1266 at the age of sixty with the title of Sultan Ghyasuddin Balban.

The nefarious idea behind this strategy was to destroy all the legitimate and legal claimants or successors to this office of Khalifa from the blood of the Holy Prophet. But this was not to be, as the blood-heritage of the Holy Prophet did survive even after this, by the grace of God.

Many Muslim saints were born of this sacred heritage to carry on the torch of Islam in the world and Hazrat Khwaja Muinuddin Chishti of Ajmer was one of them to play such a glorious role in preaching Islam.
