Which of the following statements are true about Minhaj - i - Siraj, a chronicler in the court of Raziya Sultan?
Statement (A) : He recognised that Raziya was more able and qualified than all her brothers.
Statement (B) : He was not comfortable at having a queen as a ruler.
Choose the appropriate option.

Correct option is C

The correct answer is Both (A) and (B) are correct.
In 1236 Sultan Iltutmish’s daughter, Raziyya became Sultan. On her inscriptions and coins, Raziyya mentioned that she was the daughter of Sultan Iltutmish. The chronicler of the age, Minhaj-i-Siraj, recognized that she was more able and qualified than all her brothers. Hence, statement A is correct.
But he was not comfortable at having a queen as ruler, nor were the nobles happy at her attempts to rule independently. Therefore, statement B is correct.
She was removed from the throne in 1240. Minhaj-i-siraj thought that the queen’s rule went against the ideal social order created by God, in which women were supposed to be subordinate to men.
