'''Rukn-ud-din Firuz''', also transliterated as '''Rukn al-Din Firoz''', was a ruler of [[Delhi sultanate]] for less than seven months in 1236. As a prince, he had administered the [[Badaun]] and [[Lahore]] provinces of the Sultanate. He ascended the throne after the death of his father [[Iltutmish]], a powerful [[Mamluk Sultanate (Delhi)|Mamluk]] ruler who had established the Sultanate as the most powerful kingdom in northern India. However, Ruknuddin spent his time in pursuing pleasure, and left his mother [[Shah Turkan]] in control of the administration. The misadministration led to rebellions against Ruknuddin and his mother, both of whom were arrested and imprisoned. The nobles and the army subsequently appointed his half-sister [[Razia Sultana|Razia]] on the throne. | |||
