Until his death in 1202 AD, he remained devoted to his older
brother Ghiyas-ud-Din and supported him in his assaults. Since there were
powerful empires at the time in Afghanistan's west, Muhammad Ghori switched his
focus eastward. The Muslim states of Multan and the citadel of Ouch were the
targets of Shahab-ud-Din Ghori's early incursions. He effectively overthrew the
Ghaznavid Empire in 1181 by attacking Lahore, giving him control of the
remaining lands. In 1191, he engaged King Prithviraj Chauhan, the most powerful
raja in India, in the first battle of Tarain. Raja Prithviraj was defeated by
Ghori at the second battle of Tarain in 1192, and the win allowed Ghori to
advance Muslim control in India.
Ghiys-ud-successor din's established the Ghori dynasty's power in Afghanistan after his death. They lost a lot of support from the locals as a result of the high taxes they imposed. Since India was the richest surrounding country, this compelled Muhammad Ghori to look for other money sources and turned his focus there.
Ghori was required to go to Lahore in 1206 to put down a
rebellion. His caravan stopped in Damik in the Jhelum area of Punjab province
in contemporary Pakistan as he travelled back to Ghazni. A small group of Hindu
Khokars killed him while he was saying his evening prayers. There were 22
wounds on his body from the murderer's savage killing technique. Ghori was
buried where he fell, as per his desires.
Shahab-ud-Din Ghori began their dynastic authority in 1173
AD, putting an end to the Ghaznavid Empire. Despite having Turkish slaves, he
ruled without a son to take his place. His slaves divided up his Empire after
his assassination. Qutb-ud-Din Aibek, his most well-known slave, founded the
Sultanat of Delhi and rose to the position of Sultan in 1206. Nasir-ud-Din
Qabacha took control of Multan in 1210 AD. Tajuddin Yildoz took over as the
city's ruler.
