Qutb al-Din Jahanshah Nikruz

Qutb al-Din Jahanshah Nikruz was the Mongol governor of Kirman when the Ilkhanate broke apart after Abu Sa'id died heirless in 1335. His brother Sultanshah Nikruz sided with the kingmaker Ali Padshah and fought at Qara Darra on 24 July 1336, where Ali Padshah's army was broken and he died.

With no overlord left, Kirman lay open to Mubariz al-Din Muhammad, founder of the Muzaffarid dynasty, who invaded in 1339 or 1340. Qutb al-Din briefly recovered the province with aid from the Kartids of Herat, but Mubariz al-Din retook it for good in late 1340.
