In 1116, he overthrew his older brother Shahrzad bin Mas'ud, took the Ghaznavid throne, and blinded or imprisoned his remaining brothers, except Bahram who was in Zamin-Dawar. After being initially defeated by Arslan at Tiginabad, Bahram, appealed to Seljuk Sultan Ahmad Sanjar, whose sister, 'Iraq Jauhar Khatun, was greatly offended at the conduct of her eldest son Arslan ibn Mas'ud, towards the rest. Incited by her and perhaps by his own ambitious views Sanjar called on Arslan to release his brothers and on his refusal marched against him with an army of 30,000 cavalry and 50,000 infantry.Arslan was defeated after an obstinate engagement and fled to Ghazna. There, on the plain outside Ghanza, Arslan was decisively defeated and fled to India. Ghazna was then subjected to forty days of pillage, which culminates in Bahram's installment as ruler and vassal of Sanjar. However, as soon as Sanjar had withdrawn his army Arslan returned, chased out Bahram ibn Mas'ud who had been left in possession which obliged Sanjar to take the field again. This struggle was Arslan's last, he was constrained to seek refuge among the Afghans but was overtaken and put to death leaving Bahram ibn Mas'ud in undisturbed possession of the throne which Arslan ibn Mas'ud himself had occupied for only two years.. }
