Lahore (Pakistan) - - Silver Dirham - Ibrahim Khan Lodi (Persian:  1480 – 21 April 1526) was the last Sultan of the Delhi Sultanate, who became Sultan in 1517 after the death of his father Sikandar Khan. He was the last ruler of the Lodi dynasty, reigning for nine years until 1526, when he was defeated and killed at the Battle of Panipat by Babur's invading army, giving way to the emergence of the Mughal Empire in India. After Sikandar Lodi's death in late 1517, his eldest son, Ibrahim Lodi, ascended the throne without opposition. Early in his reign, Ibrahim attempted a power‐sharing arrangement by installing his brother Jalal Khan as the autonomous governor of Jaunpur. But when Jalal began to assert his independence, Ibrahim—acting on the counsel of senior courtiers—reversed his decision. He summoned Jalal to Delhi; upon his refusal, Ibrahim secretly directed provincial governors and leading nobles to withhold recognition of Jalal's authority, forcing him to abandon Jaunpur and fall back to his former stronghold at Kalpi.
