D Correct answer
Explanation

Feroz Tughlaq's reintroduction of the Jagir system proved fatal because it granted land revenue rights to nobles and military commanders as payment instead of maintaining central control over revenue collection. This led to decentralization of power, weakened the Sultan's authority, created independent power centers, and ultimately undermined the empire's stability. The other options were not as devastating as this structural change.
