Biography

The son of Kuchkunji Khan Abdullatif Khan in 1537-1538 participated in the campaign of Ubaidullah Khan to Khorezm . In March 1540 , after the death of Abdullah Khan I , he came to power in Samarkand . He did not recognize the ruler of the state of Abdalaziz Khan , who declared himself the ruler of Bukhara. Thus, dual power arose in the Sheibanid state: Abdullatif Khan ruled in Samarkand, and the son of Ubaidullah Abdallaziz Khan in Bukhara. Abdulatif Khan issued coins in Bukhara, Tashkent, Samarkand and Balkh with the titles "Khakan the son of the Khakan Abulgazi Bahadurkhan".

Abdulatif Khan had two sons: Abdalsultan and Gadayhan.

Cultural Policy

Abdulatif Khan was considered an expert on the history of Maverannahr and the Shibanid dynasty. He patronized poets and scientists. Abdulatif Khan himself wrote poetry under the pen name Khush ^[5] .

During the reign of Abdulatif Khan, the official documentation used not only Persian, but also Uzbek ^[6] .

Death

Abdulatif Khan died in Samarkand in 1552 and was buried next to his father in a tomb in Samarkand. His relative, the governor of the Tashkent possession Nauruz Ahmed Khan , who was proclaimed the khan of all Uzbeks, came to power.
