He was the son of the past nutsal Ibrahim I. [1] Throughout his reign, he tried to expand his possessions, but without significant success. He is known for the so-called " testament", [2] which is addressed to his nephew Bulach, at the end of which it says: "O son of my brother! If you want to become an emir like your brave ancestors, then try to cross these boundaries, not yielding even an land".
