{'afghan rulers': [0, 0, 1, 0], 'correct chronological order': [2, 2, 18, 6], 'bahlol khan lodi': [0, 0, 1, 0], 'sikandar shah': [0, 0, 1, 0], 'ibrahim lodi': [2, 0, 0, 0], 'throne': [4, 0, 5, 0]}

Option 3 presents a timeline starting with Bahlol Khan Lodi, then Sikandar Shah, and lastly Ibrahim Lodi. This option actually mirrors the historical chronology of these rulers. Bahlol Khan Lodi, the founder of the Lodi Dynasty, reigned from 1451-1489. His son, Sikandar Shah or Sikandar Lodi, continued from 1489-1517, and finally Ibrahim Lodi, the last of the Afghan Lodi Kings, ruled from 1517 until his defeat in 1526 at the Battle of Panipat.

Option 4 incorrectly arranges Bahlol Khan Lodi first, followed by Ibrahim Lodi and ends with Sikandar Shah. This doesn`t reflect historical events as Sikandar Shah ruled before Ibrahim Lodi.

In summary, option 3 accurately represents the order these Afghan
