Al-Aziz Jamal al-Din Yusuf (Arabic: العزيز جمال الدين أبو المحاسن يوسف بن برسباي) was the son of Barsbay, and a Mamluk sultan of Egypt from 7 June to 9 September 1438.[1][2]
Biography
Following Sultan Barsbay's death in 1438, his fifteen-year-old son Yusuf inherited the throne. However, Jaqmaq who was his guardian orchestrated a scheme to remove him from power and seized the sultanate for himself.[3] Yusuf who reigned for 94 days was imprisoned in Cairo then in Alexandria, where, according to Ibn Taghribirdi, he spent the rest of his life studying under quite pleasant circumstances.[4]
