Muhammad Shah I Bahmani

Muhammad Shah I Bahmani restructured the Bahmani administration by dividing the sultanate into four provinces (tarafs), each governed by a tarafdar. This system improved tax collection and military organization.

Muhammad Shah I Bahmani fought a war against the Vijayanagara Empire for control of the Raichur Doab. The conflict ended with a treaty that temporarily ceded the region to Vijayanagara.

Muhammad Shah I Bahmani commissioned the construction of the Jami Masjid in Gulbarga, a large congregational mosque. The mosque became a center for Islamic worship and learning in the Bahmani capital.

Muhammad Shah I Bahmani crushed a rebellion led by the noble Bahram Khan, who had challenged his authority. The revolt was put down with force, and Bahram Khan was executed.
