The deposing of Inal and the accession of Khushqadam
In 865 AH the sultan al-Ashraf Inal deposed himself from the sultanate and handed it to his son al-Malik al-Muʾayyad Shihab al-Din Abu al-Fath Ahmad ibn Inal, on Wednesday, the fourteenth of the first Jumada. Inal died one day later. Then his atabeg Khushqadam deposed al-Muʾayyad five months and five days afterwards, and al-Malik al-Zahir Khushqadam took the sultanate on Sunday, eleven nights before the end of Ramadan 1.
