Mihrabanids

The Mihrabanids were a Muslim dynasty ruling Sistan from Shahr-i Sistan near Zaranj. In 1337 Malik Qutb al-Din Muhammad governed independently after the collapse of the Ilkhanate.

Timur invaded Sistan in 1383 and devastated the province, ending its independence. The Mihrabanids served the Timurids and then the Shaybanids in the early sixteenth century. In the 1530s the last malik, Sultan Mahmud, submitted to the Safavids and handed over Sistan, ending the dynasty's rule.
