She was the first female Muslim ruler of the subcontinent, and the only female Muslim ruler of Delhi.
A daughter of Mamluk Sultan Shamsuddin Iltutmish, Razia administered Delhi during 1231–1232 when her father was busy in the Gwalior campaign.
According to a possibly aprocryphal legend, impressed by her performance during this period, Iltutmish nominated Razia as his heir apparent after returning to Delhi. Iltutmish was succeeded by Razia's half-brother Ruknuddin Firuz, whose mother Shah Turkan planned to execute her.
During a rebellion against Ruknuddin, Razia instigated the general public against Shah Turkan, and ascended the throne
