Yildiz, Taj al-Din

Yildiz, Taj al-Din
(?-1216)
   Yildiz was a slave of Muhammad Ghauri. He proclaimed himself a sultan at Ghazni on his master's death in 1206. Yildiz adopted a conciliatory attitude toward Qutb al-Din Aibek (1206-1210), who had made himself the independent ruler of the conquered territories in India. Yildiz gave one of his daughters in marriage to Aibek. After Iltutmish's rise to the throne of Delhi in 1211, Yildiz refused to acknowledge his sovereignty. In 1214, when a Khwarazmian incursion ousted Yildiz from Ghazni, he came to the Punjab with the idea of carving out a territory for himself there but was overtaken and defeated by Iltutmish in 1216. Yildiz was taken prisoner and executed.
