The Iranian Historians of Deccan

Iranians used to call the southern part of Indian subcontinent Deccan. It seems that from distant past there have been strong relations between Iran and Deccan. The historical and mythological evidences and sources of Iran have made repeated references to the old deep-rooted relations between the two nations until India gained formal independence .
The relations continued in the Islamic era of Iran and reached its pick of glory during the Safavids. During the Safavid's rule, the Sh‘ia kings of Deccan included the names of the Safavid's kings as their overlord kings and religious preceptors in Friday Congregational prayers . It was obvious that the enhancement of ties between Iran and Deccan before and after Iranians converted to Islam has caused many works of history to appear.
