Perhaps Kashmir's greatest distinction is that its most celebrated poet is a woman, Lalleshvari, who lived and composed her poetry in the fifteenth century.
It is tempting to think that there might have been a tradition of women bards in ancient Kashmir, and that Lalleshvari could not have sprung out of thin air.
Lalleshvari's successor poets, Arinya Mal and Habba Khatun wrote sad and imagistically rich love poetry.

Lalleshvari it concerns me when you use a dubious sakhi to try and speak on behalf of all sikhs that Ali and not Abu Bakr was the successor of Mohammed.
