al-Nasir Hasan ruled the Mamluk Sultanate twice, returning to the throne in 1354 after an earlier deposition. His reign reflected the continuing struggle between the sultan and powerful military commanders. He is especially remembered for commissioning the monumental Mosque-Madrasa of Sultan Hasan in Cairo, one of the most celebrated surviving buildings of Mamluk Egypt.
