Promotion of Learning in India during Muhammadan Rule (by Muhammadans) c12.2

c12.2

WE have thus far dwelt upon the contributions made by the Paṭhān kings towards the progress of Muhammadan education and learning in India. But Muslim culture was not promoted by the Delhi kings alone. All over India there sprang up many a small kingdom which was making its own contribution to the general progress of Islāmic learning in the country; and an account of Muhammadan education of the period would be incomplete without a survey of the achievements of those smaller kingdoms apart from the work of the paramount power enthroned at Delhi.
