Ibrahim Khan Lodi (Persian: ابراهیم لودی; 1480 – 21 April 1526) was the last Sultan of the Delhi Sultanate,[2][3] who became Sultan in 1517 after the death of his father Sikandar Khan Lodi. He was the last ruler of the Lodi dynasty, reigning for nine years until 1526, when he was defeated and killed at the Battle of Panipat by Babur's invading army, giving way to the emergence of the Mughal Empire in India.[4][5]
