Summary/Abstract: Although Alā ad-Dīn Kayqubād, sultan of Saljuks of Turkey, had sent Altunaba firstly as an envoy due to forge friendships and later Kamāl ad-Dīn Kamyar to Jalāl al-Dīn Manguberdi, the relations between the two sultas turned into hostility after a while because of Manguberdi’s discountenance. Jalāl al-Dīn Manguberdi, who had just arrived in the region, was trying to establish new alliances in his own way, and the Emir of Erzurum, Jihān-Shāh, was one of the biggest supporters of Jalāl al-Dīn Manguberdi. Alā ad-Dīn Kayqubād tried to form an alliance against Manguberdi by making an agreement with the Ayyubids. However, as time passed, the tension between the two sides increased and the Battle of Yassiçemen took place in 1230. Jalāl al-Dīn Manguberdi was defeated in this war. This situation shows that Malazgirt has never been captured by the Khwarazmians. Sultan Alā ad-Dīn Kayqubād captured the territory of Jihān-Shāh, malik of Erzurum, who declared his loyalty and helped Jalāl al-Dīn Manguberdi, and so that Erzurum region was dominated by the Seljuks of Turkey. Then Alā ad-Dīn Kayqubād, as a result of the relations, showing a negative trend with the Ayyubids, sent Altunaba, Kamāl adDīn Kamyar and Mubariz ad-Dīn Çavlı, of his important commander, over Ahlat in 1232 Ahlat and Ahlat was annexed by the Seljuks of Turkey in 1232.
