Iqlim an administrative division into which the Muslim kingdom of Bengal was divided in the early period. Names of two iqlims, ie Iqlim Muazzamabad and Iqlim Mubarakabad are found in the coins and inscriptions of the Muslim sultans during the period ranging from the 13th to the early 15th centuries. There was another administrative unit called arsah. Ziauddin Barani, a contemporary historian of Delhi refers to Bangalah both as an Iqlim and Arsah.
Though both Iqlim and Arsah denoted administrative units, their relation to one another cannot be definitely determined. However, it appears that Iqlim was a bigger unit than Arsah; the former may be equated with modern division, and the latter with a modern district. [Abdul Karim]
