It expanded significantly under rulers like Alauddin Khalji, who strengthened central authority and repelled Mongol invasions, and later the Tughluqs, who attempted ambitious but often unstable reforms. The Sultanate helped spread Islamic culture, administration, and architecture across the region while interacting with existing Hindu traditions. It declined due to internal revolts, weak rulers, and external pressures, ultimately falling after the invasion of Babur, who established the Mughal Empire in 1526 following the First Battle of Panipat.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"NumisMall","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51138852028731,"sku":"x3998-60849","price":65.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0447\/1750\/6710\/files\/w60849.jpg?v=1775946574","url":"https:\/\/www.numismall.com\/products\/large-silver-tanka-of-kaiqubad-1287-90-delhi-dehli-sultanate-d-178","provider":"NumisMall","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
