They ruled the golden heart, the most powerful Mongol province of the time.Unlike other members of the Mongol nation, he was a God-fearing, compassionate, and dignified man
First of all, Barqa Khan was introduced to Islam through Muslim prisoners who remembered their Lord in every difficulty and trial.The philosophy of Islam and its legitimacy kept Barqa Khan at bay for a long time, then on his return from Mongolia he settled in the Muslim city of Bukhara.
Here he met Najmuddin Mukhtar Azhadi, a Muslim scholar of the time. Here Barqa Khan got answers to all the questions that arose in his heart and he became the first Muslim ruler to convert to Islam.
After converting to Islam, he changed his name to Abu al-Ma’ali Nasir al-Din at a time when Halagu was trying to eradicate the religion of Islam from the world.
The conversion of Barqa Khan and his army to Islam was nothing short of a miracle.After his conversion to Islam, Barqa Khan wrote a letter to the Khaqan-e-Azam of the Mongols, in which Barqa Khan vowed to avenge every drop of Muslim blood from Halagu Khan Will take
And he persevered until he died. Barqa Khan allowed Halagu to invade another Muslim city and not to trample it.
In 1262, a bloody battle was fought between Barqa Khan and Hulagu Khan, known as the First Great Civil War of the Mongols, in the rocky region of Kafkas, which resulted in Hulagu Khan’s bloody power and terror. Ended
Noghai Khan, the nephew of Barqa Khan, annihilated the forces of Halagu on the banks of the river Tirak, some drowned and some were killed by the swords of Barqa Khan’s Mujahideen.
In this battle, the wife of Hulagu Khan, who dreamed of setting fire to mosques and demolishing Islamic empires and installing slabs there, was also captured.
Hulagu Khan hid in an unknown area of ??Azerbaijan but the arrest of his beloved wife made Hulagu Khan so ill that he soon fell asleep in the arms of death.
Barqa Khan also passed away only a year after the death of Halagu, but due to his military and moral deeds, he left such indelible marks in history which will be remembered till the Day of Judgment.
Barqa Khan was not persuaded to raise the sword against his own cousin Halagu Khan, he believed in Mongol unity.
But for the sake of your religion and its importance, you did not shy away from raising the sword against your family.
He opened the door to a bright path for the Mongol nation, and successive Mongol rulers and generals, including the descendants of Hulagu Khan himself, converted to Islam.
It was Barqa Khan’s resistance that caused Hulagu Khan to refrain from invading the Muslim holy cities of Jerusalem, Medina and Mecca, otherwise the destruction of Baghdad was just one example of Hulagu Khan’s barbarism.
That is why the poet of the East, Allama Iqbal Sultan Barqa Khan, presents this poem in his honor.
