The deposing of al-ʿAziz and the accession of Jaqmaq
In 842 AH the amirs deposed al-Malik al-ʿAziz Yusuf ibn Barsbay, who had been sultan for three months, and in his place al-Malik al-Zahir Abu Saʿid Jaqmaq was raised up 1.
With this, the rule was secured for Jaqmaq, who founded his state, which lasted fifteen years. Al-ʿAziz Yusuf remained isolated in his father's palace 1.
