Amir Khusrau and his Adaptability – J. Dadademery

“The planets revolved a number of years, then was born a supporter of Islam, Tughlaq Shah, the guardian of religion.”
Though the Sultan was on good terms with Amir Khusrau, he was not satisfied with the activities of Hazrat Nizamuddin Aulya. In a bitter tirade against him Tughlaq ordered him to leave Delhi before he returned from Lakhnauti. He never reached Delhi, as he died before reaching Delhi in 1325 A. D.

The Idea of India in Amir Khusrau

With the glory of India, Khusrau cannot help linking his own fame!
No wizard in the art of poetry like Khusrau exists under the sun Because Khusrau belongs to India and he is the admirer of Qutb-e-Alam (the Sultan).

Nizamuddin Auliya: A life spent in bringing happiness to the human heart

Nizamuddin was that perfected spirit. He could feel others’ pain. And in Amir Khusrau, Nizamuddin found that perfected spirit. Khusrau too felt the pain of others.
Nizamuddin was the shield of his people against the treacherous times, against life’s beatings of the soul. And no one other than Amir Khusrau realised that when the master would be reunited with his Love, the pain would be so intense that the lacerations would appear on his soul. Khusrau would not survive.
