<論文>15世紀北インドにおけるインド・イスラームの学術伝統 --ダウラターバーデイー作『サイイドたちの美徳』を通して--

Abstract

During the reign of Sultan Ibrāhīm Sharqī (r. 1401-1440), ruler of a newly established Sharqī kingdom based on Jawnpur, a famed Indian qādī Shihāb al-Dīn Ahmad al-Dawlatābādī wrote the Manāqib al-Sādāt. This work remains unpublished, but might be one of the most widely read works by Dawlatābādī. It discusses the due respect to and merits of sayyids in the form of hadith commentary and refers to around 120 works of various disciplines. It quotes theological and jurisprudence works in Arabic and Persian anecdotes of former kings and intellectuals, such as Shams al-Din Iltutmish and Abūal-Hanīfa. Briefly introducing the author Shihāb al-Dīn al-Dawlatābādī and Manāqib al-Sādāt, this paper identifies the works that appear in Manāqib al-Sādāt, often in abridged titles, and then compares them with two lists of works referred to by two intellectuals in South Asia, one in the early half and another in the latter half of the fourteenth century. Through the analysis, this paper highlights that the intellectual tradition established in Delhi by the Tughluq period was inherited in regional kingdoms in the fifteenth century, while the topic and language of Manāqib al-Sādāt show a certain novelty.
