Yashbak min Mahdi
View on Wikipediafrom Wikipedia
Yashbak min Mahdi (died 1480) was a senior Mamluk commander during the reign of Qaitbay.[1] His military career began in Upper Egypt, where he gained a reputation for both courage and cruelty. In 1468, he was promoted to dawadar kabir by Sultan Qaitbay, and soon became his closest advisor. In 1480, Yashbak min Mahdi left Egypt to attempt to conquer Urfa from the Aq Qoyunlu, but was captured and executed there.[2]
