He came to India when Delhi was ruled by Sultan Muhammad bin Tughluq who appointed Ibn Battuta as a Qazi. Later Tugluq later sent him as ambassador to China. Ibn Battuta left extensive accounts of his travels that make very interesting reading. Decades ago, Sarweshwar Dayal Saxena wrote abal-kavitaon Ibn Battuta. Shoes were prominent in the poem asJootarhymes so well withBattuta. In a recent song written by Gulzar for themovie IshqiyaIbn Battuta and Joota again figured prominently resulting in some controversy about the credit of the song. Here both versions are being presented for the readers.

mittalji.maine philhal to gulzaar sahab ka ye gana suna nahi....
magar jitna yaad aa raha hai...
us hisaab se is line me..........
pahne to karta hai jurm

pahne to karta hai churr......aur qafiya bhi tabhi match hoga....
kyuki gulzaar sahab qafiya zarur sahi match karte hai.....
kajra re kajre me...unhone dekhiye litna haseen qafiya milaya hai
aag hai.....
