Do. Beg. Several persons of this
name or title. The first of
them is Shāh Beg Arghūn,
s. Zu-l-Nūn, see B. 362. He
is also called Shujā Beg and
may be distinguished as the
Shāh Beg of Bābur's Mem.
But he is only incidentally referred
to in Vol. III of A.N.;
see p. 977, for account of
how a slave rescued him
from prison. At 596, another
Shāh B. mentioned, and also
at 706. He too was an
Arghūn but he is generally
known as Khān Daurān; he
was s. Ibrāhīm Beg. See B.
377; see also 713, 734, 792.
Builds fort, 809. Another
Shāh Beg, namely the famous
Uzbeg Shaibānī, is referred
to at p. 843; the S. B. of p.
853 is the Khān Daurān; and
so also is he of 863, 887,
929, 972 and 973. At
896, the S. B. is Shaibānī
Uzbeg; at 976 Bābur's S. B.
is referred to; at 979 it is
the K. Daurān who is meant;
and so also at 993, 999, 1000,
1015, 1020, 1030, 1043. Rank
raised to 3,500, 1076, 1160 (?),
his presents, 1211, rank raised
to 5,000, 1225, 1233, 1240.
The Khān Daurān is several
times mentioned in J.'s Mem.
He died when nearly 90 years
of age, J.'s Mem., II, 172. See
his biography, Ma'āir U. II,
642.

Jalāīr was an old and valued

Bābā Beg sacrificed his life
in attempting to save Ḥājī
B. and others of Humāyūn's
ladies at Chausā. The article
Shāham J. will be found on p. 603,
of Vol. II of the Ma'āir U. But
date of death, and perhaps also
place thereof, are wrong. A.N.'s
date is 5 Shahriyūr of the
regnal year 45 (August 1600).

Sulān Mīrzā,
Humāyūn changed it to
Shāh Mīrzā. He was s. Ulugh
Mīrzā and grandson Sulān
Ḥusain the famous ruler
of Herāt. Sulān Ḥusain's
d. was Shāh Mīrzā's mother.
Shāh M. came to India in
Bābur's time and was afterwards
given by Akbar pargana
A'ampūr in Sambal. See B.
461 and the Ma'air U. III,
192, from which B.'s account
is taken. In his old age
Shāh Mīrzā had four sons.
The Sambal Mīrzās were
Persians and Timurids, but
they were cause of mischief in
India. A late member of
family, Moaffar Ḥusain M.
married A.'s eldest d. Sulān
Khānam. The Mīrzās figure
in A.N., III, on pp. 15, 16,

Death and character, 1197.
See also 1196 and Ma'āir-U.
II, 605. Shāh Qulī Maḥram
had curious career. His success
in capturing Himū turned
his head, and he, like Khān
Zamān and Moaffar of
Turbat, and the great
emperor Bābur, became infatuated
by the abominable
Central Asian vice of sodomy,
and became for a time a jogi
and went into forest because
Akbar, to his great credit,
detested the vice, and insisted
on Shah Qulī's giving up his
catamite. See the interesting
remarks of editor of Ma'āiru-l-U.,
and his rather shuffling
view of Shāh Qulī's conduct
and of Akbar's severity at
p. 606 of Vol. II. Also at
p. 607, the account of origin
of Shāh Qulī's title of Maḥram,
i.e. the confidant, admitted
to the Harem.
Shakru-n-Nisā, a name which
recalls that of Waller's flame
Sackinssa, fell ill, 937, but lived

Sher Afgan, that is, tiger-thrower,
was s. Qūch Beg. His real name
was 'Alī Qulī Istajlū and he was
table-attendant of Shāh Ismā'īl II.
The title Sher Afgan is said to
have been given to him by Jahāngīr
when he was Prince Selīm.
It was Akbar who gave Nūr
Jahān in marriage to Sher Afgan
in order to prevent Selīm from
marrying her. Perhaps A.'s interference
was a pity. Sher Afgan's
f. is said to have been slain
in trying to protect Miriam
Makānī. But the story, as told in
B. 455, and which is borrowed in
great measure from the Ma'āiru-l-Umarā
II, 572, life of Sher Afgan's
s. Shiroza, cannot be correct
if, as B. says, it refers to the
disaster of Chausā, for Miriam
Makānī was not present there and
was not then Humāy ūn's wife. If
the story be true it must refer to
Ḥājī Begam. In the A.N., III,
Sher Afgan is thrice mentioned,
viz. at 650, 715 and 718, of the
P. T. In the first mention it is
said that A. made Shiroza a
Khān as a reward for his father's
services. This was in the 39th
year of the reign. The account
of Shiroza will be found at
572-73 of Vol. II of the Ma'āir
U. We are not told if Shiroza was
Nūr Jahān's s., or if she was only
his step-mother. For Shiroya
or Shīroya, see 175, 177, 363,
519, 591, 613, 632, 794, 795, 1000,
when he was made a Khān, sent
to Ajmīr, 1006, where Shīroza
should be Shīroya in the translation.

A., Jahāngīr and Shāh Jahān.

Sherī (Mullā), a poet. He wrote
the satirical lines about A.'s
rising claims of divinity. See B.
197 and 610. He was killed in

along with Bīrbar in 30th
year of reign, 732, and also 716,
where name omitted in translation.
