The small autobiographical compendium Futuhat-e-Firozshahi is attributed to Firoz Shah Tughlaq and documents his reforms, public works and policies in a self-representational form. While not as lengthy or literary as some chronicles, it offers direct insight into how Firoz Shah wished to be remembered: as a builder, reformer and pious ruler. Historians consult this text (and contemporary chronicles that cover his reign) to reconstruct his administrative measures, patronage and the narrative he promoted about his rule.
