Correct Option (c)
Both statements are correct.
Statement 1: Ibrahim Adil Shah II, the Sultan of Bijapur (1580-1627), was a significant patron of arts and culture. He authored 'Kitab-i-Nauras', a collection of songs and poems. This work is notable for its praise of both Hindu deities and Muslim saints, reflecting the syncretic cultural traditions prevalent in the Deccan Sultanates during his reign.
Statement 2: Amir Khusrau (1253-1325), a prominent poet, musician, and scholar associated with the Delhi Sultanate, is widely credited with originating the early form of Qawwali in India. Qawwali is a devotional Sufi musical style that emerged from a blend of Persian, Arabic, and local Indian musical traditions, significantly shaped by Khusrau's innovations.
Incorrect Options
Options (a), (b), and (d) are incorrect because both statements 1 and 2 are factually accurate. Ibrahim Adil Shah II did compose 'Kitab-i-Nauras', and Amir Khusrau is recognized for his foundational role in the development of Qawwali in India.
