Ahmed Tekuder

Ahmed Tekuder (c. 1246–1284), son of Hulagu and brother of Abaqa, was Ilkhan of Iran from 1282 to 1284. Baptized a Nestorian as Nicholas in childhood, he had converted to Islam by his accession and ruled as Sultan Ahmad. He reversed Abaqa's pro-Christian policies and sought an alliance with the Mamluk sultan.

His purges drove his nephew Arghun into revolt. Arghun surrendered in 1284 but was freed; Tekuder was captured and executed on 10 August, and Arghun took the throne.
