Description:
(King)
Mu'izz al-Din Muhammad ibn Sam, also known as Muhammad of Ghor, expanded Islamic rule in South Asia by subjugating the Oghuz Turks, annexing Ghazni, and extending Ghurid dominion eastwards into the Gangetic Plain. Despite facing defeats, he secured victories against the Rajput Confederacy. Muhammad quelled insurrections, launched invasions, and crushed revolts. His assassination led to the decline of the Ghurids and the rise of the Delhi Sultanate under his slave commander Qutbuddin Aibak.
