Solution

The correct option is C They composed songs in Hindi and Urdu.
The Sufi saints came to India from Persia. The Sufi saints used music and dance as a means to express their devotion to God. For that reason, they composed many songs in Hindi and Urdu. They believed that music and dance filled with devotion would take one closer to God. Both the Hindus and Muslims participated in the religious ceremonies called ‘Urus’ that took place in the Sufi centers.
