===Medieval period===
Muzaffarnagar's early medieval history is obscure till the Indo-Mughal period. [[Timur]]'s army had marched to Delhi through this region in 1399; its people fought it unsuccessfully. In [[Mughal Empire|Mughal]] Emperor [[Akbar]]'s time, most of the Muzaffarnagar district region, called Sarwat then under the Mahal control of Tagas / Tyagis of Sarvat village, belonged to the sarkar (circle) of Saharanpur. Akbar bestowed [[pargana]] of Sarwat on [[Sayyed Mahmud Khan]] Barha which remained with his descendants up to the 17th century. After killing Peer Khan Lodi styled as Khan Jahan lodi, [[Shahjahan]] bestowed title of deceased Peer Khan Lodhi and Pargana of Sarwat on Sayyed Muzaffar Khan Barha, whose son Munawwar Lashkar Khan Barha established the city and named it Muzaffarnagar in honour of his father, and Sarwat also became Muzaffarnagar.<ref>{{cite web| title = Brief District History| url = http://www.muzaffarnagar.nic.in/history.htm| access-date = 2013-09-09| publisher = Muzaffarnagar district website| archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20130914172306/http://muzaffarnagar.nic.in/history.htm| archive-date = 14 September 2013| url-status = dead}}</ref>
