ABSTRACT | ||
Sultan Ghiyasuddin Azam Shah (1390-1411) was one of the most notable rulers of medieval Bengal, making important contributions to building strong connections between Bengal and the outside world. During his reign from the Ilyas Shahi dynasty, Bengal gained prominence on the international stage. Notably, his forward-thinking diplomacy and support for the arts and culture helped boost Bengal’s global reputation. Moreover, showing his deep passion for culture and literature. On the other hand, Sultan Ghiyasuddin Azam Shah sent an envoy to the famous Persian poet Hafiz Shirazi, asking him to complete a verse of an unfinished poem. Additionally, guided by a strong religious sense of duty, he founded madrasas and hospices in Mecca (Makkah) and Medina (Madinah), while also providing financial aid to local residents. By rejuvenating historic cultural and trade links between Bengal and China, he promoted increased trade and diplomatic relations between the two nations. In Addition, during his era, the port of Chittagong became a key hub for international trade, a crucial point for pilgrims and merchants alike. These accomplishments strengthened Bengal’s relationships worldwide, giving the region a respected universal standing. In this context, this research paper will explore how the Sultan Ghiyasuddin Azam Shah effectively enhanced Bengal’s international relations through his diplomatic and cultural efforts. | ||
