Reign
editHis rule was dominated by Chobanid overlordship. According to Munejjimbashi, he was a son of Farrukhzad II.[1] This view was shared by other historians like Bakikhanov, Bidlisi, Rumlu and others, according to Sara Ashurbeyli.[2] Edward von Zambaur[3] and Barthold proposed 1317 as start date for Kayqubad's reign, however there is no concrete evidence for this.
According to Abd al-Razzaq Samarqandi, Malek Ashraf offered to take her daughter's hand, however his son Kavus, who was already in a position of co-ruler refused this.[4] His name disappears from records around 1348, which is considered his possible death date.
Keygubad Mosque is considered to be made on his order.
