The famous poet Amir Khusrau was contemporary of all except the following:
Iltutmish
Amir Khusrau was a prominent poet and musician during the Delhi Sultanate period. His life spanned across several rulers of the Khilji and Tughlaq dynasties. To determine which ruler he was not contemporary with, we need to examine the timelines of their reigns.
Alauddin Khilji (1296-1316 CE), Ghiyasuddin Balban (1266-1287 CE), and Jalaluddin Khilji (1290-1296 CE) were all rulers during Amir Khusrau's lifetime. Khusrau served as a court poet under several of these rulers, composing works that reflect the political and social contexts of their reigns.
However, Iltutmish's reign (1211-1236 CE) predates Amir Khusrau's birth. Amir Khusrau was born around 1253 CE. Therefore, Iltutmish was not a contemporary of Amir Khusrau.
In summary, Amir Khusrau's long life overlapped with the reigns of many Delhi Sultans, but it did not extend back to the era of Iltutmish.
