I assume you mean multiplayer. They are a strong multiplayer nation due to their position, ideas and decent potential for expansion. You will also easily own both Mecca and Jerusalem. You're a good trader and you have a good possibility of being very rich if you develop a strong navy. Westernizing may be somewhat of an issue (you're unlikely to naturally border a more advanced European nation if you stick to your immediate vicinity) but it's easy to overcome with diplomacy.
Just watch out if there's an Ottoman player as they may want to conquer your lands.

I am playing mamluks in a MP. In this Game there is an Ottoman; I hope we can stay peaceful.
My first Target has been Tripolis, Tunis and Ethopia, all Annexed by now. Second Target will be all provinces of the Aden Trade Node. From there I intend to expand towards East africa and indonesia. I will not interfere in Basra Trade Node, since I intend to stay in Peace with ottoman. Same for indian trade nodes. Westernizing will require a Border province in Algeria, Esther with Spain or Portugal.
I intend to Take The following Ideas:
Defense, Exploration (africa, indonesia), Administration, Trade, Naval, Offensive, Quality
Other Options:
Expanding into Marocco and Western africa (Trade nodes: Ivory Coast, Timbuktu)
Any suggestion to adopt the Strategy?

Ally with Ottomans.I think they may accept this because Ottomans can invest in better lands then yours so you can get well with each other.
Mamluks has great potential to go into India,or colonize Africa.You can agree with Ottomans like that, he goes West you go East but anyway always be careful of the Ottomans as they are a rival of yours even as ally.

I was very successful as Mamluks in multiplayer once, I had all the Gulf of Aden, and was focused on trade. 1700 I had westernized, I had all of East Africa and South Africa, and most of North Africa. I had ports in India and Indonesia. I was planning an invasion of Japan, then Spain (who had PUed Portugal) decided they wanted South Africa. Ottomans simultaneously decided they wanted the Middle East (they had been focused in Russia/Europe earlier). I ddn't accomplish much after that.
