When a great blessing had been conferred, and the extirpation of Bairām Khān was assured, and the Atga Khān had been honoured by a reception, H.M. decided to leave the army and to proceed towards Lahore, hunting as he went. In this way there would be both the pleasure of hunting, and Lahore would again be made illustrious by H.M's advent. Accordingly the army was left there (Sirhind) under the command of Mun'im Khān, and H.M. set out. On the 4th Mihr, Divine month, corresponding to Tuesday 26 Ẕī al-ḥajja 967, 17th September 1560, he alighted in Lahore, and the Atga Khān held great feasts. H.M. the Shāhinshāh exalted him by royal favours and made over the choicest parts of the Punjab to him and his brethren. During the period of H.M.'s stay at Lahore the Khān Ā'āzim fell ill, and H.M. kindly left him there and proceeded to the army which had been placed under Mun'im Khān.
