Answer: B. 1406

Explanation

Ibn-e-Khaldun passed away in the historic city of Cairo during the year 1406 A.D. He spent his final years in Egypt serving as a judge, teacher, and diplomat under the Mamluk Sultanate. His death in 1406 marked the end of a prolific life dedicated to scholarship, history, and sociology. Cairo was a major intellectual hub of the Islamic world during the medieval Mamluk period. Ibn-e-Khaldun traveled extensively across North Africa, Spain, and the Middle East before settling permanently in Cairo. His scholarly legacy survived through his extensive writings that continue to be studied globally today.

1011 is far too early and predates the birth and lifetime of Ibn-e-Khaldun by several centuries. 1400 is close to his later years but is incorrect since historical records pinpoint his death in 1406. 1460 is chronologically impossible as it occurs long after his actual demise in Cairo.
