==Biography==
Ibrahim was an ethnic [[Pashtuns|Pashtun]]. He attained the throne upon the death of his father, Sikandar, but was not blessed with the same ruling capability. He faced a number of rebellions. Ibrahim Lodhi also displeased the nobility when he replaced old and senior commanders with younger ones who were loyal to him. His Afghan nobility eventually invited [[Babur]] to invade India.
 
In 1526, the Mughal forces of Babur, the king of Kabulistan (Kabul, present Afghanistan), defeated Ibrahim's much larger army in the [[Battle of Panipat (1526)|Battle of Panipat]]. He was killed in the battle. It is estimated that Babur's forces numbered around 12,000–25,000 men and had between 20 and 24 pieces of field artillery. Ibrahim Lodhi had around 50,000 to 120,000 men along with around 400 to 1000 war elephants.
In the ensuing battle the Lodhi forces were tarnished with over 20,000 killed and many more wounded and captured.
After the end of Lodhi dynasty, the era of Mughal rule commenced for next 331 years.<ref>Davis, Paul K. (1999), ''100 Decisive Battles: From Ancient Times to the Present'', Oxford University Press, p181.</ref>


==Tomb==

{{main|Ibrahim Lodi's Tomb}}

His tomb is often mistaken to be the ''[[Shisha Gumbad]]'' within [[Lodi Gardens|Lodhi Gardens]], [[Delhi]]. Rather [[Ibrahim Lodi's Tomb]] is actually situated near the [[tehsil]] office in [[Panipat]], close to the [[Dargah]] of Sufi saint [[Bu Ali Shah Qalandar]]. It is a simple rectangular structure on a high platform approached by a flight of steps. In 1866, the British relocated the tomb during construction of the Grand Trunk Road and renovated it with an inscription highlighting Ibrahim Lodi's death in the Battle of Panipat. He also built a [[Khwaja Khizr Tomb]] in [[Sonipat]] in 1522.<ref>[http://www.haryana-online.com/tomb_of_ibrahim_lodhi.htm Tomb of Ibrahim Lodi] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080514085608/http://haryana-online.com/tomb_of_ibrahim_lodhi.htm |date=14 May 2008 }}</ref><ref>[http://www.india9.com/i9show/Ibrahim-Lodhi%27s-Tomb-14121.htm Ibrahim Lodi's Tomb]</ref><ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20100314040211/http://www.hindu.com/mp/2005/07/04/stories/2005070400980200.htm The tale of the missing Lodi tomb] [[The Hindu]], 4 July 2005.</ref>
