Spanning from the early 18th century through India’s independence in 1947, these volumes examine the political structures, social hierarchies, cultural achievements, and economic systems that shaped Muslim life in the Indian subcontinent.
This scholarly handbook covers major themes including the decline of Mughal authority, the rise of regional Muslim kingdoms, the impact of colonial rule, the independence movement, and the Partition of India. It includes detailed analysis of religious institutions, intellectual developments, literary traditions, and everyday life across diverse Muslim communities. The work serves as an essential resource for historians, students, and researchers seeking to understand the complex dynamics of Muslim societies in pre-modern and modern India.
