Devaladevī, who like her mother, was famous for her beauty, was married to Khiẓr Khan, the eldest son of ‘Alā ud-Dīn. Amīr Khusrau composed poems on their love. After the murder of the blinded Khiẓr by his younger brother Mubārak, about 1318-19 A.D. the latter married her forcibly against her will. After the murder of Mubārak by Khusrau in 1320 A.D. she was forced into the harem of the usurper. Such is the reward that fate often reserves for beauty. - [Previous: v2.c31.782](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.ray-1931.v2.c31.782) - [Next: v2.c31.784](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.ray-1931.v2.c31.784) - [Up: v2.c31](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.ray-1931.v2.c31) ## Linked texts (1) - [Tārīkh-i Firishta](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tarikh-i-firishta) — Muḥammad Qāsim Hindū Shāh Firishta 1606, Persian --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.ray-1931.v2.c31.783](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.ray-1931.v2.c31.783) · Pramāṇa
