This article argues that although there is little mention of women in general and
female slaves in particular in the Delhi Sultanate primary sources, these scarce
references taken cumulatively create a legible portrait of female slaves. Secondly,
based on primary sources of the Sultanate era, this article identifies some
undercurrent themes about femininity and the social roles of female slaves.
Thirdly, this article categorizes the sultanate historical sources into four genres,
that are, political histories, Sufi literature, poetry and travelogues and tries to
rationalize, compare and contrast the tone and treatment of female slaves in each
of these genres.
