An-Nasir Faraj

Al-Nasir Faraj or Nasir-ad-Din Faraj, also Faraj ibn Barquq, was the sultan of the Burji dynasty of the Mamluk Sultanate from 1399 to 1412 with the title Al-Nasir. He was only 13 years old when he became the sultan on the sudden death of his father Sayf-ad-Din Barquq. His reign was marked by anarchy, pandemonium and chaos with the Timur's invasions, including the sack of Aleppo and Damascus in 1400, incessant rebellions in Cairo, endless conflicts with the Emirs of Syria, along with plague and famine which reduced the population of the kingdom to one-third.

Family
One of his wives was Khawand Fatima, the sister of the Islamic historian Ibn Taghribirdi. After Faraj's death, she married Inal Nauruzi. Another concubine was Thuraiya. She gave birth to Faraj's daughter, Khawand Asiya. Another daughter of Faraj named Khawand Satita married Sidi Ibrahim, son of Sultan Al-Mu'ayyad Shaykh. She died in 1416. Another daughter, Khawand Shakra, married Amir Jarbash al-Muhammadi and had a son, Nasir ad-Din Muhammad. ==See also==
