Biography

edit

At around 10 years old, al-Nasir al-Din Muhammad became successor to his father, Sultan Sayf al-Din Tatar, on November 28, 1421, who died two days later. Conflicts among emirs ensued, with Barsbay eventually seizing power. Deposed on April 1, 1422, Al-Nasir al-Din Muhammad spent years in a palace in Cairo before his death from the plague in March 1430.[3]
