Mas'ud I came to power by force, deposing his brother Muhammad in 1030 after their father Mahmud of Ghazni died — a succession dispute resolved by blinding and imprisonment rather than negotiation. His decade on the throne was defined by military overreach and the catastrophic defeat at Dandanaqan in 1040, where the Seljuk Turks effectively ended Ghaznavid control over Khorasan. Nishapur, the mint city here, changed hands to the Seljuks shortly after that battle.
Mas'ud himself was murdered by his own troops during the retreat westward.
