To Persia
To the Byzantine Empire

Answer
The Islamic Empire's power shifted to Egypt during Qutuz's lifetime. This was because the Egyptian army, under the leadership of Sultan Qutuz, defeated the Mongols in the Battle of Ain Jalut in 1260. This battle marked a turning point in the Mongol Empire's expansion and helped to preserve the independence of the Mamluk Sultanate of Egypt.
