Explanation Pair 1 is correctly matched: Qutb-ud-din Aibak, the founder of the Delhi Sultanate and its first Sultan, was a patron of Hasan Nizami, a Persian historian. Hasan Nizami authored Taj-ul-Maasir, an important historical work that provides insights into the early Delhi Sultanate, including Aibak’s reign.
Pair 2 is not correctly matched: Aram Shah, who briefly ruled the Delhi Sultanate after Qutb-ud-din Aibak and Iltutmish is not known to have patronized Fakhruddin. There is no historical evidence linking Fakhruddin, a poet of the period, to Aram Shah’s court.
Pair 3 is not correctly matched: Amir Khusrau was born in 1253, after Iltutmish's death in 1236. Therefore, Iltutmish could not have been his patron. Amir Khusrau later became associated with the courts of subsequent rulers like Alauddin Khalji
