Ajlan (tribe)
‘Izz al-Dīn Abū Sarī‘ ‘Ajlān ibn Rumaythah ibn Muḥammad Abī Numayy al-Ḥasanī ( ar, عز الدين أبو سريع عجلان بن رميثة بن محمد أبي نمي الحسني) was Emir of Mecca from 1344 and 1372, with interruptions. Biography Ajlan was born around 707 AH (). He was the son of the Emir of Mecca Rumaythah ibn Abi Numayy, who reigned between 1301 and 1345. In 744 AH (1343/1344) Ajlan and his brother Thaqabah purchased the emirate from their elderly father for 60,000 dirhams, without approval from the Mamluk sultan. Consequently, when Thaqabah arrived in Egypt seeking recognition from al-Salih Isma'il, the sultan had him arrested and ordered the emirate returned to Rumaythah. In late Dhu al-Qi'dah (April 1344) Ajlan quit Mecca after receiving news of Thaqabah's capture. He went to Yemen, where he interfered with the passage of ''jilab'' (ships) to Mecca, resulting in high inflation during the hajj that year. After the departure of the hajj ...

14th-century Arabs
As a means of recording the passage of time, the 14th century was a century lasting from 1 January 1301 ( MCCCI), to 31 December 1400 ( MCD). It is estimated that the century witnessed the death of more than 45 million lives from political and natural disasters in both Europe and the Mongol Empire.

Yalbugha Al-Umari
Sayf ad-Din Yalbugha ibn Abdullah al-Umari an-Nasiri al-Khassaki, better known as Yalbugha al-Umari or Yalbugha al-Khassaki, was a senior Mamluk emir during the Bahri period. Originally a ''mamluk'' of Sultan an-Nasir Hasan (r. 1347–1351, 1354–1361), he rose through the ranks as the senior emirs Shaykhu and Sirghitmish were eliminated, becoming the ''amir majlis'' (lord of the audience, a senior administrative official), and achieving the highest military rank of ''amir mi'a muqaddam alf'' (emir of 100 mounted horsemen and commander of 1,000 soldiers). Ties between Yalbugha and an-Nasir Hasan deteriorated and the former had the latter, his master, killed in a violent power struggle in 1361. After an-Nasir Hasan's elimination, Yalbugha became the most powerful figure in the sultanate of al-Mansur Muhammad (r. 1361–1363), who Yalbugha had a hand in appointing and under whom he served as ''atabeg al-asakir'' (commander in chief). His power was tempered by the other senior emirs ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

He was toppled in 1351 when he attempted to assert executive authority to the chagrin of the senior emirs. He was reinstated three years later during a coup against his brother Sultan as-Salih Salih by emirs Shaykhu and Sirghitmish.
