She was clever and had her husband so much in her power, that he did nothing without her advice. Her enemy was Muhtarim Khánum, the widow of Prince Kámrán. M. Sulaimán wanted to marry her; but Khurram Begum got her married, against her will, to Mirzá Ibráhím, by whom she had a son, Mirzá Sháhrukh (No. 7). When Mirzá Ibráhím fell in the war with Balkh, Khurram Begum wanted to send the Khánum to her father, Sháh Muhammad of Káshghar; but she refused to go. As soon as Sháhrukh had grown up, his mother and some Badakhshí nobles excited him to rebel against his grandfather M. Sulaimán. This he did, alternately rebelling and again making peace. Khurram Begum then died. Sháhrukh took away those parts of Badakhshán which his father had held, and found so many adherents, that M. Sulaimán, pretending to go on a pilgrimage to Makkah, left Badakhshán for Kábul, and crossing the Níláb went to India (983). Khán Jahán, governor of the Panjáb, received orders to invade Badakhshán, but was suddenly ordered to go to Bengal, as Mun’im Khán had died and Mirzá Sulaimán did not care for the governorship of Bengal, which Akbar had given him. M. Sulaimán then went to Ismá’íl II. of Persia. When the death of that monarch deprived him of the assistance which he had just received, he went to Muzaffar Husain Mirzá (No. 8) at Qandahár, and then to M. M. Hakim at Kábul.
