Mahanid Emirate
The Mahanid Emirate, also known as the Mahanid State or Māhāniyyah Kingdom,[1] was an Arab state that existed in India from 813 to 841.[2] It was established during the reign of Abbasid caliph al-Ma'mun and continued to exist until the reign of al-Mu'tasim.[3] It was reportedly the first Arab state to become administratively independent from the Abbasid Caliphate while continuing to acknowledge Abbasid authority through the khutba and allegiance.[3] The Mahanid State was established in Sandān or Sindān in 813 by its founder, al-Fadl ibn Māhān.[4][5][6] Sandan, an Arabized form of Sanjan was a town in Gujarat, north of present-day Mumbai.[7][8][9]
