 Iltutmish's earliest inscription, dated October 1211, styles him as a suordinate king - "al-Malik al-Mu'azzam" ("the great chief"), rather than as an imperial "Sultan".Meanwhile, taking advantage of the succession conflict between Aram Shah and Iltutmish, Qabacha had captured Lahore in 1211.Shortly after this, a Khwarazmian invasion forced Yildiz to leave Ghazni.
