Sanjar-Shah

Source: Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

Sanjar-Shah was the

Khwarezmid invasion and resulted in the takeover of Nishapur
by Khwarezm.

Sanjar-Shah succeeded his father

Khwarezm; the government of Nishapur was given over to Tekish's son Malik-Shah.[1]
Despite this, Sanjar-Shah continued to collude with anti-Khwarezmid elements in Nishapur; in retaliation the shah ordered his blinding.
