Jalayirid Hasan Buzurg and given the regnal name Muhammad Khan. This was done in opposition to his third cousin once removed,
Musa. Jalal ad-Din Zakariyya (or Shams al-Din) and late Mahmudshah Inju's son Masudshah were appointed as his viziers while Hasan's supporters reaffirmed their positions. Chupanid Sorgan and his mother
Sati Beg gained
Karabakh, Hajji Taghay reaffirmed in
Diyarbakir, Hajji Tughanak acquired Baghdad, Musa's would be killer, Emir Qara Hasan granted overlordship over
Oirat tribes. However Qara Hasan and Hajji Tughanak couldn't manage to subjugate them and were utterly defeated, latter being killed. Hasan Kucek claimed a Turkish slave of his father's deputy was in fact, his father
Timurtash and arrived from Egypt. This news caused Chupanids to split off from Jalayirids and join Hasan Kucek. The two opposing sides then met in the Ala Tagh area near
Van on July 16, 1338, with both Hasan Buzurg and Muhammad Khan suffering defeat. After Hasan Buzurg fled, Muhammad Khan was captured by the Chupanids and executed. ==References==
