== History ==
=== War of succession with Nusrat Shah ===
Nasiruddin Mahmud was a son of sultan [[Nasir ud din Muhammad Shah III]], who ruled the Delhi Sultanate from 31 August 1390 to 20 January 1394. Upon his death, his older son [[Ala ud-din Sikandar Shah]] became sultan, but he soon died of illness on 8 March 1394, and his younger brother Nasiruddin Mahmud succeeded him. However, the succession was challenged by his relative [[Nasir-ud-din Nusrat Shah Tughluq|Nusrat Shah]] (also known as Nasrat Khan), triggering a war of succession that lasted for three years until 1397. During this time, Nasiruddin Mahmud ruled from the city of Delhi, while Nusrat Shah ruled from [[Firozabad]].<ref name="Jayapalan"/><ref>{{Cite book |last=Sen |first=Sailendra |title=A Textbook of Medieval Indian History |publisher=Primus Books |year=2013 |isbn=978-9-38060-734-4 |pages=100 – 102}}</ref>
