Fakhr al-Din Mubarak Shah

Fakhr al-Din Mubarak Shah
(?-1350)
   Fakhr al-Din (also known as Fakhra) was in his early career an armor bearer (salahdar) of Muhammad bin Tughlaq's adopted brother Bahram Khan. In 1338, on the death of Tatar Khan, who was until then governing Sonargaon for the sultan of Delhi, Fakhr al-Din declared himself the sovereign ruler of that part of Bengal with the title Mubarak Shah. He also tried to extend his control to Lakhnauti but eventually was ex-pelled from there by Husam al-Din (entitled Nizam al-Din), who had been sent from Delhi to deal with this situation. Fakhr al-Din Mubarak Shah continued to rule at Sonargaon until 1350.
