Tomb of Muhammad Shah Sayyid

Placeholder for Tomb of Muhammad Shah Sayyid Tomb

The Sayyid dynasty marked a significant period in the Delhi Sultanate's history, governing for 37 years between 1414 and 1451. The dynasty's establishment was led by Khizr Khan, who had previously served the Timurid Empire from his seat in Multan before asserting control over Delhi. His successor, Mubarak Shah, continued the dynastic rule, proclaiming himself sultan. This era followed the Tughlaq dynasty and preceded the Lodi dynasty, which eventually took over in 1451, concluding the Sayyid's influence.
