The Bahari Mamelukes

After the murder of Turanshah , the Ayyubid Dynasty came to an end and the Mamelukes became the leaders of the Near East . During the Bahari Dynasty , 25 Bahari Mamelukes ruled for almost 130 years , in which Shajart-Ed-Durr was chosen as their queen . Being once one of the slaves of as-Saleh , she is the only woman , who ruled the Muslim Country in the East and she married the Ayyubid sultan (Najm al-Din Ayyub) and gave birth to a son , called Khalil , who died at a young age .
Izz al-Din Aybak was chosen to marry Shajart-Ed-Durr and to be the Sultan of Egypt and took the title of al-Malik al-Muizz . His sons and grandsons tried to keep themselves on the throne , but they failed . When En-Nasir of Aleppo (Saladin's grandson) invaded Damascus , then began to enter the Nile Valley , Aybak defeated him completely . Taking another wife from Mosul , Aybak was killed by his wife , Shajart-Ed-Durr .
