About Arslan-Shah
- from The Formation of Turkey: The Seljukid Sultanate of Rum Eleventh to Fourteenth Century by Claude Cahen.
It was apparently around this time that Kilij Arslan II, now in his seventies, decided to partition his territories among his sons. They were ten in number, and to them must be added a brother of the sultan with his son. One of the ten must however have disappeared, since the sources agree in mentioning only eleven portions. Tokat went to Rukn al-Din Sulayman-Shah (the future Sultan Suleyman II), Niksar to Nasir al-Din Berk Yaruk-Shah, Elbistan to Mughith al-Din Togril-Shah, Kayseri to Nur al-Din Mahmud Sultan-Shah, Sivas and Aksaray to Qutb al-Din Malik-Shah, Malatya to Mu’izz al-Din Qaysar-Shah, Nigde to Arslan-Shah, Ankara to Muhyi al-Din Mas’ud-Shah, Burglu to Ghiyath al-Din Kay Khusraw (the future Sultan Kay Khusraw I), and finally Eregli at the entrance to the Taurus, and Amasya to Sancar-Shah and Nizam al-Din Argun-Shah, Kilij Arslan’s brother and nephew, respectively. Their government were registered in Kilij Arslan’s divan, and each had to bring him his troops annually. It seems that at first Kilij Arslan had intended to keep only the capital, Konya, for himself.
