Information About

Qutb Ud Din Mubarak Shah




Qutb-ud-din, at the age of 18, was originally appointed regent to his younger six-year old brother, the king. Within two months, Qutb-ud-din blinded his brother and ascended the throne. He began his rule by releasing thousands of prisoners and abolishing all taxes and penalties imposed by his father.

In 1320, his Male Favorite Khusru Khan murdered him and proclaimed himself king. This effectively ended the Khilji dynasty.
