Talk:Zafar Khan (Indian general)

The name was Malik Hazbaruddin
'''Malik Hazbaruddin, awarded the title of Zafar Khan by Sultan Alauddin Khilji had a great career as a commander in the army of the Sultan. He had been in the forefront of the Sultan's early campaigns of the Deccan along with Malik Kafur. His death in his hasty attack on the Mongols at Keli in 1299 A.D. was actually a result of his non compliance to his masters's orders in staying calm at his guard and waiting for the Mongol hordes either to attack or leave the fields of Keli, seeing the Sultan's army unaffected by their huge presence. Ultimately Sultan Alauddin Khilji's army prevailed and drove out the Mongols from not only Keli but out of the northern borders of his sultanate.'''

Surname Khan
How did he have the name Khan if the Mongols were the only one to carry that title at the time? Akmal94 (talk) 06:19, 7 April 2017 (UTC)
