Answer and explanation
Correct answer A
Razia Sultan (ruled 1236-1240), the only woman to rule the Delhi Sultanate, was the daughter of Iltutmish, who named her his heir over his sons. Qutubuddin Aibak, founder of the Slave (Mamluk) dynasty, was Iltutmish's master and father-in-law, not Razia's father. Balban came to the throne later, in 1266.
