Muhammad bin Tughluq (1325-1351)
was the Turkic Sultan of Delhi from 1325 to 1351.He was the eldest son of Ghiyas-ud-din Tughlaq. He was born in Kotla Tolay Khan in Multan. His wife was the daughter of the raja of Dipalpur.[2] Ghiyas-ud-din Tughlaq sent the young Muhammad to the Deccan to campaign against king Prataparudra of the Kakatiya dynasty whose capital was at Warangal. Muhammad succeeded to the Delhi throne upon his father's death in 1325. From his accession to the throne in 1325 until his death in 1351, Muḥammad contended with 22 rebellions, pursuing his policies consistently and ruthlessly. He seemed to be two people at a time. Some people said that he was mad but some said he was far ahead intelligent. Many rebellions occur during his reign. A powerful Hindu state ( Vijyanagar) was established in the south, as was an independent Muslim Kingdom ( bahmani ) in the Deccan. The Delhi sultanate began to crumble.
