Solution

The correct option is B Khwaja Moinuddin
The Chishti order was established in India by Khawaja Muinuddin Chishti who came to India around 1192, shortly after the defeat and death of Prithvi Raj Chauhan. He settled in Ajmer which was an important political centre. No authentic record of his activities is available and he did not write any book.
