Aram Shah, believed to be Aibak's son, succeeded him but was an incompetent ruler and was soon defeated and deposed by Iltutmish.

Qutb ud-Din Aibak built 'Adhai Din Ka Jhonpra', a mosque in Ajmer, reportedly converting a Sanskrit college into the mosque in two and a half days.

Kayumars was the infant son of Kaiqubad and the last ruler of the Slave Dynasty. He was killed by Jalaluddin Khilji, marking the end of the dynasty.

Amir Khusrau, known as the 'Parrot of India', began his career during the reign of Balban (specifically under his son Muhammad) and served several subsequent Sultans.

Balban propounded the theory of Divine Right of Kingship, calling the Sultan 'Niyabat-i-Khudai' (Deputy of God) and 'Zil-i-Ilahi' (Shadow of God).

Balban established a separate military department called 'Diwan-i-Arz' to reorganize and strengthen the army, headed by the 'Ariz-i-Mumalik'.

Balban introduced the famous Persian New Year festival 'Nauroz' in his court to add grandeur and impress the nobles.

Balban introduced 'Sijda' (prostration) and 'Paibos' (kissing the monarch's feet) to demonstrate the superiority of the Sultan over the nobles.

Balban adopted the 'Policy of Blood and Iron', implying the use of ruthless force to suppress internal rebellions and deal with enemies.

Ghiyas ud din Balban, who was originally a member of the Chalisa, destroyed the group to consolidate his own power and restore the prestige of the crown.
