History

Khiliji dynasty,(12901320), the second ruling family of the Muslim sultanate of Delhi. This dynasty, like the previous Slave dynasty, was of Turkish origin, though the Khalj tribe had long been settled in Afghanistan. Its three kings were noted for their faithlessness, their ferocity, and their penetration of the Hindu south.

The first Khalj sultan, Jall al-Dn Frz Khalj, was established by a noble faction on the collapse of the last feeble Slave king, Kay-Qubdh. Jall alDn was already elderly, and for a time he was so unpopular, because his tribe was thought to be Afghan, that he dared not enter the capital.

Cultural achievements and religious propagation

The main court language of Khiljis became Persian followed by Arabic and their own native Turkoman language and some of north-Indian dialects. Even if it was not related with their nature as original nomads and had no ties with urbane cultures and civilizations, the Khilji of Delhi promoted Persian language to a high degree. Such a co-existence of different languages gave birth to the earliest and archaic version of Urdu.

According to Ibn Battuta, the Khiljis encouraged conversion to Islam by making it a custom to have the convert presented to the Sultan who would place a robe on the convert and award him with bracelets of gold During Ikhtiyar Uddin Bakhtiyar Khilji's control of the Bengal, Muslim missionaries in India achieved their greatest 1/4/13 success, in terms of number of converts to Islam
