Iraq ibn Mansur

Iraq ibn Mansur was one of the Afrighid rulers of Khwarazm and the grandfather of Ahmad ibn Muhammad Khwarazmshah. ² Shohruxmirzo Ismoilov sees in his coins a sign that the rulers of Khwarazm in the late ninth century had begun to adapt to Islamic traditions without yet forgetting their own. ¹
