==history==
==History==
There are two different accounts of the founding of Pihani.<ref name="Gazetteer"/> The first, traditionally told by Hindu locals, holds that Pihani was originally settled by Dube Brahmins from [[Kannauj]].<ref name="Gazetteer"/> They had supposedly been invited by [[Raja Lakhan Sen]], a Gaur king who had conquered the fort of [[Simaurgarh]] (near [[Mansurnagar]]) from the [[Thathera]]s.<ref name="Gazetteer"/> The Muslim account, on the other hand, says that Pihani was founded by Sayyid Abdul Ghafur, who served as [[Qadi|qazi]] of Kannauj under the Mughal emperor [[Humayun]].<ref name="Gazetteer"/> In 1540, after [[Humayun]]'s defeat by [[Sher Shah Suri]], Abdul Ghafur refused to acknowledge Sher Shah's rule and left Kannauj to take shelter in the jungle where Pihani now stands.<ref name="Gazetteer"/> The name "Pihani" is thus said to derive from the word ''pinhani'', meaning "concealment".<ref name="Gazetteer"/>
As in part of history , pihani has some historical places . As discussed in history pihani was also known as one of the hiding places because one famous incident was "hiding of humayu" (father of king akbar"). And has some historical monuments.The older name of pihani was "Pinhani".

One of the main historical monuments in Pihani is the ornate tomb of [[Nawab Sadr Jahan]], who served as a minister under [[Akbar]].<ref name="Gazetteer"/> It consists of a double dome supported by red sandstone pillars, while the surrounding area is shaded by large [[tamarind]] trees.<ref name="Gazetteer"/> An inscription in [[Persian language|Persian]] says that the tomb's construction began in 1071 [[Hijri year|AH]] and finished 10 years later.<ref name="Gazetteer"/> Sadr Jahan's son, Badr-i-Alam, is also buried here.<ref name="Gazetteer"/> Another monument is the ruined fort of Nizam Murtaza Khan (Badr-i-Alam's son); its western gate is still extant, as are the high walls built of [[kankar]] blocks.<ref name="Gazetteer"/>

Under the [[Nawabs of Awadh]], Pihani was renowned for the quality of its sword blades.<ref name="Gazetteer"/> It also produced woven turbans (aka [[dastar]]s), but both of these industries had declined by the turn of the 20th century.<ref name="Gazetteer"/>

At the turn of the 20th century, Pihani was described as having two distinct quarters named Bari Pihani and Chhoti Pihani.<ref name="Gazetteer"/> Bari Pihani was older and more run-down at the time, while Chhoti Pihani, or Nizampur, had been founded by Nizam Murtaza Khan and was more prosperous, with many trees providing shade.<ref name="Gazetteer"/> Pihani remained a minor commercial centre, with a police station, post office, cattle pound, and several schools: one middle school, a lower primary school for boys, and two lower primary schools for girls.<ref name="Gazetteer"/>

==Economy==
As of 1971, the economy of Pihani was described as dominated by [[Primary sector|primary activities]].<ref name="Census 1971">{{cite book |title=Census 1971 Uttar Pradesh: District Census Handbook Part X-A: Village & Town Directory, District Hardoi |date=1972 |pages=viii-xi, 8-9 |url=http://lsi.gov.in:8081/jspui/bitstream/123456789/1130/1/45148_1971_HAR.pdf |access-date=14 June 2021}}</ref> The main items imported were cloth, groceries, and [[kerosene]] oil.<ref name="Census 1971"/> The main items manufactured were handloom, shoes, and agricultural implements.<ref name="Census 1971"/> The biggest exports were cane sugar, paddy, and wheat.<ref name="Census 1971"/>

History

[edit]

There are two different accounts of the founding of Pihani.[4] The first, traditionally told by Hindu locals, holds that Pihani was originally settled by Dube Brahmins from Kannauj.[4] They had supposedly been invited by Raja Lakhan Sen, a Gaur king who had conquered the fort of Simaurgarh (near Mansurnagar) from the Thatheras.[4] The Muslim account, on the other hand, says that Pihani was founded by Sayyid Abdul Ghafur, who served as qazi of Kannauj under the Mughal emperor Humayun.[4] In 1540, after Humayun's defeat by Sher Shah Suri, Abdul Ghafur refused to acknowledge Sher Shah's rule and left Kannauj to take shelter in the jungle where Pihani now stands.[4] The name "Pihani" is thus said to derive from the word pinhani, meaning "concealment".[4]

One of the main historical monuments in Pihani is the ornate tomb of Nawab Sadr Jahan, who served as a minister under Akbar.[4] It consists of a double dome supported by red sandstone pillars, while the surrounding area is shaded by large tamarind trees.[4] An inscription in Persian says that the tomb's construction began in 1071 AH and finished 10 years later.[4] Sadr Jahan's son, Badr-i-Alam, is also buried here.[4] Another monument is the ruined fort of Nizam Murtaza Khan (Badr-i-Alam's son); its western gate is still extant, as are the high walls built of kankar blocks.[4]

Under the Nawabs of Awadh, Pihani was renowned for the quality of its sword blades.[4] It also produced woven turbans (aka dastars), but both of these industries had declined by the turn of the 20th century.[4]

At the turn of the 20th century, Pihani was described as having two distinct quarters named Bari Pihani and Chhoti Pihani.[4] Bari Pihani was older and more run-down at the time, while Chhoti Pihani, or Nizampur, had been founded by Nizam Murtaza Khan and was more prosperous, with many trees providing shade.[4] Pihani remained a minor commercial centre, with a police station, post office, cattle pound, and several schools: one middle school, a lower primary school for boys, and two lower primary schools for girls.[4]

Economy

[edit]

As of 1971, the economy of Pihani was described as dominated by primary activities.[7] The main items imported were cloth, groceries, and kerosene oil.[7] The main items manufactured were handloom, shoes, and agricultural implements.[7] The biggest exports were cane sugar, paddy, and wheat.[7]
