Which of the following is important source material for the history of Gujarat from the beginning of the Muslim rule?

Mirat-i-Sikanderi
Tazkirat-ul-Muluk
Mirat-i-Ahmadi
Burhan-i-ma'asir

The correct answer is: A. Mirat-i-Sikanderi

Mirat-i-Sikanderi is a chronicle of the history of Gujarat from the beginning of the Muslim rule to the reign of Mahmud Begada. It was written by Muhammad Qasim Ferishta in the early 16th century. The work is divided into two parts, the first of which deals with the history of Gujarat up to the reign of Mahmud Begada, and the second of which deals with the history of the Mughal Empire up to the reign of Akbar.

Mirat-i-Sikanderi is an important source for the history of Gujarat. It is a well-written and detailed account of the events of the time. The work is also valuable for its insights into the political, social, and economic conditions of Gujarat during the period covered.

The other options are not as important as Mirat-i-Sikanderi for the history of Gujarat. Tazkirat-ul-Muluk is a biographical dictionary of the rulers of Gujarat. Mirat-i-Ahmadi is a chronicle of the reign of Ahmad Shah I of Gujarat. Burhan-i-ma’asir is a chronicle of the reign of Mahmud Begada of Gujarat.
