Who among the following had the title of ‘Abla Baba’ (friend of the poor) of the Deccan?
Ibrahim Adil Shah II
The correct answer is Ibrahim Adil Shah II.
This title reflects his deep interest in Indian philosophy, music, and his attempts to foster harmony between different communities in his kingdom. He was a skilled calligrapher and a patron of the arts. His court was a center of culture, attracting poets, musicians, and scholars from various backgrounds. The combination of titles ('Abla Baba' and 'Jagatguru') suggests a ruler who was perhaps seen as both compassionate towards the common people and universally knowledgeable or respectful of diverse traditions.
