In the second year, Sh. accompanied the emperor on his tour to Kábul, but fell so ill, that he had to be left in Láhor, A´çaf Khán (No. 98, p. 412) being appointed to officiate for him. On his recovery, he was sent to the Dak'hin, but was soon afterwards called to court, as he could not agree with the KhánKhánán (No. 29). It is said that illness deprived him of the faculty of memory, and Jahángír was on the point of making him retire, when Khán Jahán interceded on his behalf. He was again sent to the Dak'hin, and died there a natural death.

Like his father, Sh. was a good painter. He also made himself known as a poet, and composed a Díwán. His takhalluç is Fárisí (Badáoní, III., 310).

Sh.'s eldest son, Shahbáz Khán, died when young. A Sarái near Lak'hnau, about a kos from the town, bears his name.

His two younger sons, Mírzá Gul and Mírzá Járullah, used to play with Jahángír at chess and nard; but this ceased at the death of their father. M. Járullah was married to Miçrí Begum, a daughter of A´çaf Khán (No. 98); but from a certain aversion, the marriage was never consummated. At A´çaf's death, Jahángír made him divorce his wife, and married her to Mírza Lashkarí (No. 375), son of Mírzá Yúsuf Khán (p. 347).

Both brothers followed Mahábat Khán to Kábul, where they died.

352. Taqiya´ of Shustar.

Taqiyá is the I´rání form for Taqí. The Ṭabaqát calls him Taqí Muhammad. Badáoní (III., 206) has Taqíuddín, and says that he was a good poet and a well educated man. At Akbar's order he undertook a prose version of the Sháhnámah. He is represented as a ‘muríd,’ or disciple of Akbar's Divine Faith.

He was still alive in the 3rd year of Jahángír's reign (1017), when he received for his attainments the title of Muarrikh Khán (Tuzuk, p. 69, where in Sayyid Ahmad's edition we have to read Shushtarí for the meaningless Shamsherí).

Taqiyá is not to be confounded with the more illustrious Taqiyá of Balbán (a village near Içfahán), who, according to the Mir-át ul 'A´lam came in the beginning of Jahángír's reign to India. He is the author of the rare Tazkirah, or Lives of Poets, entitled 'Arafát o 'Araçát, and of the Dictionary entitled Surmah i Sulaimání, which the lexicographer Muhammad Husain used for his Burhán i Qáṭi.’

353. Khwa jah Abdussamad of Káshán.

354. Haki´m Lutfullah, son of Mullá 'Abdurrazzáq of Gílán.

He is the brother of Nos. 112 and 205, and arrived in India after his brothers. Badáoní (III., 169) calls him a very learned doctor.

355.	Sher Afkan	sons of Saif Khán Kokah (No. 38, p. 350).
356.	Ama´nullah	sons of Saif Khán Kokah (No. 38, p. 350).

Amánullah died in the 45th year of Akbar's reign at Burhánpúr. “He was an excellent young man, but fell a victim to the vice of the age, and died from excessive wine-drinking.” Akbarnámah, III., 835.

357.	Sali´m Quli´	sons of Ismá'íl Qulí Khán (No. 46).
358.	Khali´l Quli´	sons of Ismá'íl Qulí Khán (No. 46).

359. Wali´ Beg, son of Páyandah Khán (No. 68).

He served under Qásim Khán (No. 59) in the conquest of Kashmír.

360. Beg Muhammad Uighúr.

361. Mi´r Kha´n Yasáwul.

When Akbar during the first Gujrátí war (p. 434, note 2) had left Patan for Chotánah (Rajab, 980), it was reported that Muzaffar of Gujrát had fled from Sher Khán Fúládí, and was concealed in the neighbourhood; vide p. 386. Akbar, therefore, sent Mír Khán the Yasáwul and Faríd the Qaráwul, and afterwards Abul Qásim Namakín (No. 199) and Karam 'Alí in search of him. Mír Khán had not gone far, when he found the chatr and sáibán (p. 50) which Muzaffar had dropped, and soon after captured Muzaffar himself in a field. Mír Khán took him to Akbar.

362. Sarmast Kha´n, son of Dastam Khán (No. 79).

363. Sayyid Abul Hasan, son of Sayyid Muhammad Mír 'Adl (No. 140).

364. Sayyid 'Abdul Wa´hid, son of the Mír 'Adl's brother.

365. Khwa´jah Beg Mi´rza´, son of Ma'çúm Beg.

366. Sakra´, brother of Ráná Pratáb.

Sakrá is the son of Ráná Udai Singh, son of Ráná Sánká (died 934, A. H.). When his brother Pratáb, also called Ráná Kíká, was attacked by Akbar (p. 418, note 2), he paid his respects at court, and was made a commander of 200.

In the 1st year of Jahángír's reign, he got a present of 12000 Rupees, and joined the expedition led by Prince Parwíz against Ráná Amrá, Pratáb's successor. In the end of the same year, he served against Dalpat (p. 359), and was in the 2nd year made a commander of 2500, 1000 horse. He received, in the 11th year, a mançab of 3000, 2000 horse.

The Akbarnámah mentions another son of Udai Singh, of the name of Sakat Singh, who in the 12th year of Akbar's reign was at court. The emperor had just returned from the last war with Khán Zamán, when he heard that Udai Singh had assisted the rebellious Mírzás. He therefore resolved to punish the Ráná, and on a hunting tour in Parganah Bárí told Sakat Singh of his intentions, and expressed a hope that he would accompany him. Sakat, however, fled to his father, and told him of Akbar's intentions. This determined the emperor to carry out his plan without delay. Udaipúr was invaded, and Chítor surrendered.

367.	Sha´di´ Be Uzbak	sons of Nazar Be (No. 169).
368.	Ba´qi´ Be Uzbak	sons of Nazar Be (No. 169).

They have been mentioned above on p. 455. From the Akbarnámah (III., 628) we see that Nazar Be received a jágír in Handiah, where he rebelled and perished (36th year).

369. Yu´na´n Beg, brother of Murád Khán (No. 54).

Some MSS. have Mírzá Khán for Murád Khán.

370. Shaikh Kabi´r* i Chishti´ [Shujá'at Khán, Rustam i Zamán].*

The Maásir calls him “an inhabitant of Mau.” He was a relation of Islám Khán (p. 493) i Chishtí, and received the title of Shujá'at Khán from Prince Salím, who on his accession made him a commander of 1000 (Tuzuk, p. 12). He served under Khán Jahán (p. 503) in the Dak'hin as haráwal, an office which the Sayyids of Bárha claimed as hereditary in their clan. Afterwards, he went to Bengal, and commanded the imperialists in the last war with 'Usmán. During the fight, he wounded 'U.'s elephant, when the Afghán chief received a bullet, of which he died the night after the battle. The day being lost, Walí Khán, 'Usmán's brother, and Mamrez Khán, 'Usmán's son, retreated to a fort with the dead body of their relation, and being hotly pursued by Shaikh Kabír, they submitted with their families, and received his promise of protection. The 49 elephants which they surrendered, were taken by Sh. K. to Islám Khán in Jahángírnagar (Dháká), 6th Çafar, 1021. Tuzuk, p. 104.

Jahángír gave him for his bravery the title of Rustam i Zamán. The Maásir says that Islám Khán did not approve of the promise of protection which Sh. K. had given the Afgháns, and sent them prisoners to court. On the road, they were executed by 'Abdullah Khán at the emperor's orders. Sh. K., annoyed at this breach of faith, left Bengal. While on the way, he received an appointment as governor of Bihár, At his entry in Patna, he sat upon a female elephant, when another elephant suddenly came up against his. Sh. K. jumped down, and broke his neck.

The Tuzuk tells the story differently, and says that Islám Khán appointed Sh. K. to Oṛísá, and that on his way to that province the accident took place. Nothing is said about Usmán's relations.
