The eldest son and successor of Ala ad-Din Muhammad II of the Khwarazmian Empire, Jalal al-Din was brought up at Gurganj, the wealthy capital of the Khwarazmid homeland. An able general, he served as second-in-command to his father in at least one battle; however, since he was the son of a concubine, he was challenged as successor by a younger brother, whose cause was supported by the powerful Queen Mother, Terken Khatun. Nevertheless, after the Mongol conquest of the Khwarazmian Empire led to his father's flight and death on an island in the Caspian Sea, Jalal-al Din gained the loyalty of the majority of Khwarazmian loyalists.","summary_more":[],"facts":[{"key":"born","label":"Born","values":[{"text":"1199","date":"1199"}],"source":{"label":"Wikidata","url":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q559416#P569"}},{"key":"birthplace","label":"Place of birth","values":[{"text":"Khwarazm","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q182647"}],"source":{"label":"Wikidata","url":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q559416#P19"}},{"key":"died","label":"Died","values":[{"text":"15 August 1231","date":"1231-08-15"}],"source":{"label":"Wikidata","url":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q559416#P570"}},{"key":"deathplace","label":"Place of death","values":[{"text":"Asia Minor","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q12824780"}],"source":{"label":"Wikidata","url":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q559416#P20"}},{"key":"occupation","label":"Occupation","values":[{"text":"sovereign","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q2304859"}],"source":{"label":"Wikidata","url":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q559416#P106"}},{"key":"spouse","label":"Spouse","values":[{"text":"Tamta","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q13052921"}],"source":{"label":"Wikidata","url":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q559416#P26"}},{"key":"positions","label":"Positions held","values":[{"text":"Khwarazmshah (1220–1231)","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q4499908","start":"1220","end":"1231"}],"source":{"label":"Wikidata","url":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q559416#P39"}}],"office":null,"sections":[],"cited":[],"cited_from":null,"videos":[],"last_reviewed":null,"organizations":[],"same_as":["https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jalal_al-Din_Mangburni","https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q559416"],"faq":[{"q":"When was Jalal al-Din Mangburni born?","a":"Jalal al-Din Mangburni was born on 1199 in Khwarazm."},{"q":"What positions has Jalal al-Din Mangburni held?","a":"Positions held by Jalal al-Din Mangburni include: Khwarazmshah (1220–1231)."}],"related":[{"name":"Atsiz","url":"https://diginpl.com/people/atsiz"},{"name":"Muhammad II of Khwarazm","url":"https://diginpl.com/people/muhammad-ii-of-khwarazm"},{"name":"Ala al-Din Tekish","url":"https://diginpl.com/people/ala-al-din-tekish"},{"name":"Ekinchi","url":"https://diginpl.com/people/ekinchi"},{"name":"Muhammad I of Khwarazm","url":"https://diginpl.com/people/muhammad-i-of-khwarazm"},{"name":"Il-Arslan","url":"https://diginpl.com/people/il-arslan"}],"places_in":[],"nearby":[],"image":{"url":"https://diginpl.com/kb-img/jalal-al-din-mangburni-e0773b620b.jpg","width":500,"height":746,"license":"Public domain","credit":"1529 artist","page":"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Jalal_al-Din_Khwarazmshah_confronts_Chinggis_Khan_across_the_Indus._Rashid_al-Din,_Jami%E2%80%98_al-tawarikh,_National_Library_of_Russia,_St_Petersburg,_MS._Dorn_289,_fols._125v%E2%80%93126r_(Jalal_al-Din_Khwarazmshah_with_weapons).jpg"},"sources":[{"label":"Wikipedia (English): Jalal al-Din Mangburni","url":"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jalal_al-Din_Mangburni","license":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/"},{"label":"Wikidata item Q559416","url":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q559416","license":"https://creativecommons.org/publicdomain/zero/1.0/"},{"label":"Image: Jalal al-Din Khwarazmshah confronts Chinggis Khan across the Indus.
