Siddi Tribes April 5, 2021 About Siddi Tribe The Siddi also known as Sidi, Siddhi, Sheedi or Habshi. Sometimes referred to as Afro-Indians. They are descended from the Bantu peoples of the East African region. It is believed that they are of African origin because they clearly show the Negroid racial strain in their physical features. Another term for Siddis, habshi, is held to be derived from the common name for the captains of the Abyssinian ships that also first delivered Siddi slaves to the subcontinent. They are primarily Muslims, although some are Hindus and others belong to the Catholic Church. Recent Status At present, the Siddis are living on the western coast of Gujarat, Maharashtra and Karnataka states. In Karnataka, they mainly live in Dharwad, Belagavi and Uttar Kannada districts. In India, the Union government in 2003, classified Siddis under the list of Scheduled Tribes. They are included in the Centre’s list of Particularly Vulnerable Tribal Groups Historical Background The first Siddis are thought to have arrived in India in 628 AD at the Bharuch port. Others followed with the first Arab conquest of the subcontinent in 712 AD. They have been soldiers in Muhammad bin Qasim’s Arab army and were called Zanjis. During The Delhi Sultanate period, Jamal-ud-Din Yaqut was a prominent Siddi slave-turned-nobleman who was a close confidant of Razia Sultana. Siddis were also brought as slaves by the Deccan Sultanates. They also served in the Navy of Shivaji Maharaj. Several former slaves rose to high ranks in the military and administration, the most prominent of which was Malik Ambar. Later the Siddi added via Bantu peoples from Southeast Africa brought to the Indian subcontinent as slaves by the Portuguese..

As a rule, ladies now were viewed as substandard compared to men and their obligations were basically limited to the home and family life. Various ladies, be that as it may, could rise above the bounds of societal desires to end up noticeably conspicuous ladies in medieval society. It was clear through non-government fields that ladies dealt with the state issues like male sovereigns. Razia Sultana turned into the main lady ruler to have ruled Delhi. Chand Bibi guarded Ahmednagar against the intense Mughal powers of Akbar in the 1590s. Jehangir's significant other NurJahan successfully employed supreme power and was perceived as the genuine power behind the Mughal royal position. The Mughal princesses Jahanara and Zebunnissa were notable writers and furthermore impacted the decision powers. Shivaji's mother, Jijabai, was ruler official due to her capacity as a warrior and a director. Mughal ladies indicated incredible pride in the activity of energy.

Sources of the Sultanate Period
Sources of the Sultanate Period A large number of literary sources are available for the medieval period. They provide a more reliable information and insight about the life of the people of the period. These sources inform us of the administrative set up of the rulers, their theory of kingship, military achievements etc. They also reflect the state of cultural, economic, political and religious institutions. We should keep in view the following points while utilizing these sources: (1) Absolute historical truth is elusive, (2) Absolute impartial history is rather impossible, (3) Every kind of prejudice, caste, faith, personal racial, regional and religious etc., possessed by the historian has exercised some influence in recording events and facts, (4) All possible efforts need to be made to sift facts from fiction, (5) Since most of the books were written on the command of the rulers or by them, they contain material which has to be treated with care and caution, (6) Different sources to be used while arriving at some definite conclusion. Important Chronicles: Kamilut-Tawarikh of Ibnul Asir: For the history of Central Asia and the Rise of the Shansabani Dynasty of Ghor, the Kamilut-Tawarikh of Ibnul Asir gives us a lot of information. The book was completed in 1230. The author was a contemporary to many of the events narrated in the last two volumes of his work He used a critical judgment in utilizing his sources of information and the result was that his account has rarely been found to be wrong. As regards his notices of Indian affairs, those are remarkably correct so far as the dates and essential facts are concerned.

PAKISTAN: Bi-Annual Research Journal Vol. No 57, June-December 2020 MUSLIM WOMEN IN THE POLITICAL HISTORY OF THE SUB-CONTINENT Shehla Gul 1 Naushad Khan 2 Abstract The political history of the sub-continent in the medieval age is mainly the history of struggle between male heirs to the throne or between two different dynasties. The participation of women in the struggle for power is very rare. But in every struggle between two male heirs or two dynasties, women have seen actively supporting the cause of their sons, husbands etc. They have been even seen actively participating in administration on behalf of their husbands and sons. Their involvement produced both—positive and negative impact on the politics of the era. This research paper focuses on the role of Muslim women in the power struggle, their impact on the administration, their contribution towards the strength of empire and efforts to keep homeland free of foreign domination. Key Words: Power Struggle, Regent, Status of Women, Sub- continent, Political Participation Introduction Generally it is believed that patriarchy has been the integral part of the culture and society of the Indian Sub- Continent and women were forced to confine to the traditional role of household and housekeeping. But looking at the history it is evident that at different times and different places women played a greater role and commanded great respect (Vardhan, 2014). When the Muslims came to Sub-Continent, they brought with themselves different laws of inheritance, divorce etc. In spite of that difference in laws Hindu and Muslims both give a distinct 1 PhD Scholar and Lecturer, Department of Pakistan Studies Islamia College Peshawar 2 Dean Faculty of Arts and Languages Islamia College, Peshawar 76 PAKISTAN: Bi-Annual Research Journal Vol.
