The Rise of the new kingdom in Deccan

Sultan Mohammad bin Tughlaq started preparing for a decisive battle. Umad-ul-Mulk Sartiz and Malik Afghan was with him. Perhaps this was the time when Ismail  Shah sent on a order to Gulbarga that a part of the army should be sent to Dawlatabad. Under the leadership of Zafar Khan, 30, 000 soldiers including Afghan, Mughal, Rajput, and Deccani soldiers reached Dawlatabad, which strengthened Ismail  Shah.

After reaching Dawlatabad, the Sultan attacked Ismail Shah. Zafar Khan, Husamamuddin and Nusrat Khan were  with Ismail Shah.

 The Deccani Amirs decicded and found that Ismail Shah should hold Dawlatabad  as far as possible, and the rest of the leaders would go on their own province.

On the other hand  Mohammad bin Tughluq   captured the Dawlatabad, which was left unprotected. Now he thought that all the lost things in the past few years had received him back, as he announced the release to   all  prisoners. After 2 months, the Sultan had to marched towards for Gujarat. Sultan appointed Malik Jauhar, Sheikh Burhanuddin, and Sartez Khan, to deal with the remaining issues. Against the order of Sultan, Jauhar killed the prisoners and attacked on the people of Dawlatabad

Zafar Khan remained in Araka for three months and  he reached  Sagar where commander Sikandar Khan and other people met him in Sagar only when he heard  that Umad ul Mulk Sartez captured Gulbarga. Zafar Khan held the meeting and decided that to defeat Jauhar.

The battle took place between   Sartez and  Zafar Khan at Sanadtan, and there was a heavy army. The army of Zafar Khan got a  part of Telangana's army of fifteen hundred, and after a few initial clashes, he attacked the army of Delhi and beat it completely.

Ismail  Shah welcomed Zafar Khan . Ismail soon came to know that Zafar Khan has gained popularity  .

Now, since the dynasty's throne was empty, the army and the people elected   Zafar Khan as
