Political Scenario
The political scenario of India, before Hazrat Khawaja
Muinuddin's arrival, was such that he had to face
insurmountably difficulties against all sorts of opposition
immediately after his arrival in Delhi. It was not Raja
Prithviraj alone who stubbornly resisted the entry and stay
of Khawaja Sahib of Ajmer. In the preceding centuries also
when Muslim visitors came to India and endeavoured to spread
the light of Islam, they had to encounter tough opposition
in various forms. As the
early Muslims did not come with a missionary zeal or the
spirit of a 'world movement', the ephemeral success of Islam
was short-lived because they came to conquer and exploit the
land. Moreover, the original impetus of the Islamic movement
had been spent out when the Ghaznavi, Lodi and Ghauri
conquerors tried to establish their rule in India. But
Islamic history records in golden letters that the
everlasting spirit of Islam was instituted in India only by
Khawaja Muinuddin Chishty and no one else. While the early
Arabs were true representatives of Islam, the latter Muslims
from the North were actuated to conquer the Indian States
and not the hearts of the Indian people. The Khawaja Sahib
had no armies and did not come to conquer any Indian
territory he conquered the hearts of the Indian people, a
grand spiritual victory that must stand high among all the
political victories of the world. No single person has ever
performed such a marvelous miracle. It was the " Will" of
God.
To
achieve such a unique victory a new approach was necessary
and this was given by Khawaja Muinuddin's mission and was
altogether different from all previous and subsequent
attempts. He did not come to India with the object of
political exploitation or rule. He came to deliver the
simple message of " Peace and Love". As enjoyed by Islam as
a God's missionary with a view to endear the hearts of the
Indian people for a world movement. And he succeeded
triumphantly because of his own inherent spiritual strength
and the characteristic qualities of Islam in spite of all
the bitter and mighty opposition. There was thus a great
difference between Khawaja Sahib's pious mission and the
peaceful way of his approach and the ways of the other
Muslim conquerors or invaders who came to India before or
after him.
History
shows that in the early period of Islam (34 AH to 400 AH) or
long before Khawaja Sahib's mission, Islam had already
reached India through the Arab traders and travelers who
used to visit the western coast. In 200 AH. a Raja of
Malabar is also reported to have embraced Islam. Prior to
this, Sind had already been conquered in 93 AH by one of the
emissaries of the Caliph of Islam. Later on, with the
increasing Islamic influence in Malabar and the simultaneous
rise of Rajput power in Northern India, the Islamic
influence had faded gradually in the north. In any case the
Indian rulers of that time were not unmindful of the
incursions of Islam in India and had continually been trying
to check its influence in this country.
Subuktagin, Mahmud. Jaipal
After
the decline of the Abbasside and Saljuki Kingdoms, the distant provinces of Islamic dominions had gradually
become independent
of the center & Naasiruddin Subuktagin a slave of Sultan
Alaptagin,had become the master of Ghazni (977 to 997 AD).
With the
appearance of Sultan Naasiruddin Subuktagin and his
notorious son Sultan Mahmud on the throne of Ghazni, the
attention of the Hindu Rajas of India was diverted to the
conquest of Muslim territories in the North. By the middle
of 400 AH they were so much encouraged by their rising power
that they wanted to conquer and bring even Afghanistan under
their suzerainty. When Raja Jaipal of Punjab took a lead to
fulfil this ambitious scheme in 363AH, he was naturally
engaged in a defensive war by Subuktagin and was ultimately
defeated and captured. He however, escaped with the promise
paying 1 lakh gold mohars and 50 elephants as ransom. But
immediately on reaching his capital, Lahore, he repudiated
this pledge upon which the Sultan was compelled to march on
India in retaliation. This time Jaipal formed a strong
united front with the help of the rulers of Delhi, Ajmer,
Kanauj and Kalahjar and raised an army of 1 lakh with a very
large number of foot soldiers. All this mighty force however
failed to win the war and Jaipal was once more captured. But
the Raja again sought his liberty and the magnanimous Sultan
against set him free.
Jaipal's Third Attack
After
the death of Sultan Naasiruddin Subuktagin, Raja Jaipal
thought he had great chance of conquering Afghanistan. In
1001 AD he therefore, attacked again but was defeated and
arrested for the third time near Peshawar by Sultan Mahmud,
son of Subuktagin. Jaipal repeated the same old story of
regret and
he once again succeeded in securing his release. But the
moral
affect of his three consecutive attacks and defeats was so
heavy
upon his self-respect this time that he burned himself
alive in a 'Chita' (pyre).
After
Raja Jaipal's death his son Raja Anandpal succeed him. He
proved to be a haughtier ruler than his father. Fired by old
vigilance and hatred, he made an appeal to all his brother
princess of India to unite and support him in a crusade
against Afghanistan's ruler in the name of 'dhun, dharam and
dharti' (wealth, religion and land). On this propaganda, a
very large army relied under his banner and he started in
1003 AD via Peshawar to invade the territory of the Sultan
of Ghazni.
Mahmud Ghaznavi was thus forced to defend his country again
and fought a furious war for 40 days. Anandpal was defeated
and his allies deserted him to be captured and brought up
before the sultan. But the same old story of regret was
repeated once more. Like his father he also begged the
Sultan to forgive on promise of paying a ransom and the
Sultan did set him free.
Whatever
may be the verdict of historians against Mahmud Ghaznavi's
17 notorious invasions of India, the above historical facts
of the repeated attacks against him and his father should
not be overlooked by all impartial observers when Mahmud is
accused for his intermittent invasions of India. The Sultan
had no other alternative to safeguard his own kingdom except
adopting the policy of a curious strategy of a campaign of
regular invasions over India form 1003 to 1026 AD in order
to keep his adversaries at bay, and in a state of constant
confusion and insecurity.
This was his defensive policy.
Rajput
Rivalries
Just
before Khawaja Moiunddin's arrival in India in 1191 AD this
country was divided into various smaller states which were
ruled by different Rajput clans. Rajputana was under the
Sisodia Rajputs of Mewar, Ajmer was ruled by the Chauhans.
Delhi was under Tomars, Kanauj was ruled by Rathors,
Gujarat by Baghelas, Bundelkand by Chandellas and Bengal
and
Bihar by Paul and Sen dynasties respectively.
Among
the above principalities, Kanauj and Delhi were most
powerful but there existed a bitter enmity between Raja
Prithvi Raj (ruler of Ajmer and Delhi) and Raja Jaychand
Rathor (ruler of Kanauj). They were cousin brothers by blood
relation. Raja Anandpal of Delhi was their grandfather on
maternal side. Jaychand was the son of Raja Anandpal's elder
daughter and Prithviraj was the son of his younger daughter.
Raja Anandpal had no male issue. At the time of this death,
he nominated Prithviraj as his heir and successor to the
throne of Delhi as he was both brave and handsome. This
naturally enraged Jaychand who, by virtue of being the
son of the elder daughter of Raja Anandpal, claimed to be
his rightful
heir and successor to the throne of Delhi.
Emperor Prithviraj Chauhan
Emperor
Prithviraj Chauhan ruled from 1179 to 1192 AD. He was a
legendary figure in the Rajput history of India. He was the
son of Raja Someshwara who ruled from 1169 to 1179 A D over
a big northern part of India. Raja Somdshwara was the 29th
ruler in the lineage of Raja Vasudeva who descended form
Chahuman the founder of the "Chauhan" clan of Rajputs whose
date is untraceable. Raja Vasudeva is however reported to
have flourished in Vikram Samvat 608 or 551 AD according to
the genealogical tree given at the end of Prabhandakosh.
Emperor
Prithvi Raj was the last Hindu Emperor of India who ruled
over a mighty empire from Taragarh Fort of Ajmer and Delhi.
He enjoyed the unique distinction of being the "flower of
Rajput chivalry and human beauty" of his time. His famous
bard, Chand has described his heroic exploits and romantic
career in "Prithvi Raj Rasa ," a very rare but historic
documentary on the contemporary history of Rajputs in India.
It was
during the reign of this emperor Prithvi Raj that Hazrat
Khawaja Moinuddin Chishty arrived in Ajmer on his holy
mission in 1191 AD. The Khawaja Sahib had to resist all the
stubborn opposition of Prithvi Raj with his amazing
spiritual powers.
Why Ajmer
Apart
from the 4606 recorded and unrecorded 'Karamaat' or miracles
emanating from Hazrat Khawaja Moinuddin the choice of Ajmer
for the center of his spiritual mission was itself a most
remarkable feature of his illuminating work in India. It was
not the work of any human brain or ingenuity, but it was
indeed the result of a "divine decree" from Medina or the
Holy Prophet of Islam that suited the great saint's mission
so admirably from every conceivable point of its vantage.
Politically Ajmer was the pivot of a mighty kingdom that
swayed over the most prominent part of India. Geographically
it was the heart of India from which the life blood flowed
through all the vital veins of the country and socially and
economically it was at the zenith of Hindu superiority and
power during the time of Khawaja Sahib's arrival in India.
There could, therefore be no other suitable place for the
seat of his spiritual mission and to pilot the movement of
Islam in this country.
In short, it was an ideal center from every point of view to
conduct one of the toughest encounters between the forces of
materialism and spiritualism the world has ever witnessed in
which the latter as always, triumphed over the former by the
infinite grace of God without recourse to any kind of armed
conflict, pressure or coercion. You may deposit your hearty contribution (amount) direct in Bank Account
