The Sultanate was founded in 1347 by [[Ala-ud-Din Bahman Shah]]. It later split into five successor states that were collectively known as the [[Deccan sultanates]], that would eventually sack the Vijayanagara capital after the [[Battle of Talikota]].

Alauddin was succeeded by his son [[Mohammed Shah I]].{{Sfn|Prasad|1933|p=417}}
Ghiyasuddin succeeded his father Muhammad II, but was [[Blinding (punishment)|blinded]] and imprisoned by a Turkish nobleman called Taghalchin.{{Sfn|Sherwani|1946|p=129}} He was succeeded by Shamsuddin, who was a puppet king under Taghalchin. Firuz and Ahmed, the sons of the fourth sultan Daud, marched to Gulbarga to avenge Ghiyasuddin. Firuz declared himself the sultan, and defeated Taghalchin's forces. Taghalchin was killed and Shamsuddin was blinded.{{Sfn|Sherwani|1946|p=132}}
[[Taj ud-Din Firuz Shah]] became the sultan in 1397.{{Sfn|Prasad|1933|p=423}} Firuz Shah fought against the [[Vijayanagara Empire]] on many occasions and the rivalry between the two dynasties continued unabated throughout his reign, with victories in 1398 and 1406, but a defeat in 1419. One of his victories resulted in his marriage to [[Deva Raya]]'s daughter. He was succeeded by his younger brother [[Ahmad Shah I Wali]].
[[Bidar]] was made capital of the sultanate in 1429.{{sfn|Yazdani, 1947|pp=23}}
The eldest sons of Humayun Shah, [[Nizam-Ud-Din Ahmad III]] and [[Muhammad Shah III Lashkari]] ascended the throne successively, while they were young boys. The vizier [[Mahmud Gawan]] ruled as regent during this period, until Muhammad Shah reached age. Mahmud Gawan is known for setting up the [[Mahmud Gawan Madrasa]], a center of religious as well as secular education.{{sfn|Yazdani, 1947|pp=91-98}} Gawan was considered a great statesman, and a poet of repute. Mahmud Gawan was caught in a struggle between the ruling indigenous Muslim elite of the Bahmanids, called the Deccanis, and the foreign newcomers from the west such as Gawan.<ref>{{cite book |url= https://www.google.ca/books/edition/Islamic_Civilization_in_South_Asia/hGHpVtQ8eKoC?hl=en&gbpv=1&bsq=deccanis%20gawan&pg=PA89&printsec=frontcover |title= Islamic Civilization in South Asia: A History of Muslim Power and Presence in the Indian Subcontinent |author= Burjor Avari |page= 89 |publisher= Routledge }}</ref> He was executed by Muhammad Shah III, an act that the latter regretted until he died in 1482.{{sfn|Yazdani, 1947|pp=10}}
===Later rulers and decline===
Muhammad Shah II was succeeded by his son [[Mahmood Shah Bahmani II]], the last Bahmani ruler to have real power.{{sfn|Yazdani, 1947|pp=10-11}}
The last Bahmani Sultans were puppet monarchs under their [[Barid Shahi dynasty|Barid Shahi]] Prime Ministers, who were de facto rulers. After 1518 the sultanate broke up into five states: [[Nizamshahi]] of [[Ahmednagar]], [[Qutb Shahi]] of [[Golconda]] (Hyderabad), [[Barid Shahi dynasty|Barid Shahi]] of [[Bidar]], [[Imad Shahi dynasty|Imad Shahi]] of [[Berar Sultanate|Berar]], [[Adil Shahi]] of [[Bijapur]]. They are collectively known as the "[[Deccan Sultanates]]".{{sfn|Haig, 1925|pp=425-426}}
The south Indian Emperor [[Krishnadevaraya]] of the [[Vijayanagara Empire]] defeated the last remnant of Bahmani Sultanate power after which the Bahmani Sultanate collapsed.<ref name="Eaton">{{cite book|title=A Social History of the Deccan, 1300–1761: Eight Indian Lives|first=Richard M.|last=Eaton|page=88}}</ref>
== Historiography ==
Modern scholars like [[Haroon Khan Sherwani|Sherwani]], [[Richard M. Eaton|Eaton]] have based their accounts of the Bahmani dynasty mainly upon the medieval chronicles of [[Firishta]], and Syed Ali Tabatabai. Other contemporary works were Sivatatva Chintamani and Guru Charitra. [[Athanasius Nikitin]] traveled this kingdom. He contrasts the huge "wealth of the nobility with the wretchedness of the peasantry and the frugality of the Hindus".<ref>{{cite book |author=P. M. Kemp |title=Bharat-Rus: An Introduction to Indo-Russian Contracts and Travels from Mediaeval Times to the October Revolution |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=3EDRAAAAMAAJ |year=1958 |publisher=ISCUS |page=20}}</ref>
== Culture ==
Rulers of the dynasty believed that they descended from [[Kai Bahman|Bahman]], the mythological figure of [[Greater Iran]]ian legend and lore.<ref>http://ignca.gov.in/Asi_data/74093.pdf {{Bare URL PDF|date=March 2022}}</ref> The Bahmani Sultans were patrons of the [[Persian language]], [[Culture of Iran|culture]] and [[Persian literature|literature]], and some members of the dynasty became well-versed in that language and composed its literature in that language.<ref name="Ansari" />
[[File:Bahamani Tombs in Bidar district.jpg|thumb|[[Bahmani Tombs]] in Bidar district]]
The first sultan, [[Alauddin Bahman Shah]] is noted to have captured 1,000 singing and dancing girls from Hindu temples after he battled the northern [[Carnatic region|Carnatic]] chieftains. The later Bahmanis also enslaved civilian women and children in wars; many of them were converted to Islam in captivity.{{sfn|Haig, 1925|pp=391, 397-398}}<ref>Sewell, Robert. ''A Forgotten Empire (Vijayanagar)'' pp.57-58.</ref> The craftspersons of Bidar were so famed for their inlay work on copper and silver that it came to be known as [[Bidriware|Bidri]].<ref name="TOI">{{cite news| title=Proving their mettle in metal craft| url=http://articles.timesofindia.indiatimes.com/2012-01-02/hyderabad/30580986_1_bidriware-hyderabad-bidar| archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130508043800/http://articles.timesofindia.indiatimes.com/2012-01-02/hyderabad/30580986_1_bidriware-hyderabad-bidar| url-status=dead| archive-date=8 May 2013| date=2 January 2012| work=[[The Times of India]]| access-date=2 January 2012}}</ref>
=== Architecture ===
[[File:Haft_Gumbad.jpg|thumb|[[Haft Gumbaz]]]]
The Persianate Indo-Islamic style of architecture developed during this period was later adopted by the Deccan Sultanates as well.
The [[Gulbarga Fort]], [[Haft Gumbaz]], and [[Jama Mosque Gulbarga|Jama Masjid]] in Gulbarga, [[Bidar Fort]] and [[Mahmud Gawan Madrasa|Madrasa Mahmud Gawan]]{{sfn|Yazdani, 1947|pp=91-98}} in Bidar, are the major architectural contributions.
The later rulers are buried in an elaborate tomb complex, known as the [[Bahmani Tombs]].{{sfn|Yazdani, 1947|pp=114-142}} The exterior of one of the tombs is decorated with coloured tiles. Arabic, Persian and Urdu inscriptions are inscribed inside the tombs.<ref>https://edizionicafoscari.unive.it/media/pdf/books/978-88-6969-086-0/978-88-6969-086-0-ch-16.pdf {{Bare URL PDF|date=March 2022}}</ref>{{sfn|Yazdani, 1947|pp=114-142}}
The Bahmani rulers made some beautiful tombs and mosques in Bidar and Gulbarga. They also built many forts at [[Daulatabad]]{{disambiguation needed|date=February 2022}}, [[Golconda]] and [[Raichur]]. The architecture was highly influenced by Persian architecture. They invited architects from Persia, Turkey and Arabia. Some of the magnificent structures built by the Bahmanis were the Jami Masjid at Gulbarga, Chandand Minar and the Mahmud Gawan Madrasa at Bidar.
