Muhammad Shaybânî

Muhammad Shaybânî or Mohammed Sheibani (v. 1451 - 1510), grandson and successor of Abû-l-Khayr after a 32 years interregnum, was the second sovereign of the dynasty Turco-Mongolian E of the Chaybanides of Ouzbékistan, and reigned of 1500 with 1510.

Its somewhat legendary origins make of it at the same time Genghiskhanide and a descendant of a homonym, founder of its dynasty, which would have converted its tribe with the Islam as of the 13th century.

Towards 1495 - 1496, Shaybânî Khan guerroie in Transoxiane, where various tribes resulting from the Gold Horde settled, against Babur and the extension of the Empire moghol. Benefitting from the revolt of the tribes of the Ferghana, it takes Samarkand in 1500 - 1501, then Khiva in 1505, Bukhara (where it transfers its capital) and perhaps briefly Hérat where it reversed in 1507 Badi az-Zaman, wire of Husayn Bayqara, the last of the Timourides.

It thus constitutes in a few years a transitory Uzbek empire which crumbles as of 1510, when its army is beaten with Merv by the Shah séfévide Ismail Ier. It was killed in 1510 at the time of a battle against the Séfévides of Perse and its cranium, encrusted with invaluable stones, was useful, says one, of cut to be drunk with its winner. His/her uncle Köchkunju succeeded to him.
