Ibrāhīm I, also known by his regnal name Ṣārim al-Dīn Ibrāhīm, was the ruler of the Ramadanid Emirate from 1354 to 1383. His father Ramaḍān was a Turkoman chieftain of the Yüregir[1] tribe and the leader of the Uchok tribal confederation in southern Anatolia. Ramaḍān would eventually be granted the position Emir of the Turkomans by the Mamluks following the Dulkadirid leader Zayn al-Dīn Qarāja's dismissal in 1352 due to a rebellion he joined.[2] Ramaḍān is thought to have died before June 1354, when Ibrāhīm arrived in the Mamluk sultan's court in Damascus with a gift of a thousand horses, securing the position his father had received. Ibrāhīm later got into an alliance with Qarāja's successor Ghars al-Dīn Khalīl in a campaign to capture Sis from the Mamluks. The Mamluk governor of Çukurova, Timurbay, received a large army in his command from Cairo. Although many of the local Turkoman lords went to Ayas to plead allegiance to him, Timurbay's attempt to raid the region elicited a major backlash that resulted in his defeat and capture in Belen. In 1381, Ibrāhīm was recognized by the Mamluks, and in 1383, he was given the title na'ib of Adana.[2]
