The Institutes of Akbar 249: 28. Qutbuddin Khan, youngest brother of Atgah Khan (15).

249

As he belonged to the Atgah Khail (vide p. 321), his tuyul was in the Panjab. He founded several mosques, &c., at Lahor.
In the 9th year (972), Akbar sent him to Kabul. During his stay there, he built a villa at Ghaznin, his birth place. On the transfer of the ‘Atgah Khail’ from the Panjab, Q. was appointed to Malwah. After the conquest of Gujrat, he received as jagir the Sarkar of Bahronch (Broach), “which lies south of Ahmadabad, and has a fort on the bank of the Narbudda near its mouth.” Subsequently he returned to Court, and was made a commander of Five Thousand.
In the 24th year (12th Rajab, 987), he was appointed ataliq to Prince Salim, received a dagz, and the title of Beglar Begi. Akbar also honoured him by placing at a feast Prince Salim on his shoulders. Afterwards Q. was again appointed to Bahronch ‘as far as Nazrbar.’ In the 28th year (991), Muzaffar of Gujrat tried to make himself independent. Q. did not act in concert with the other officers, and in consequence of his delay and timidity, he was attacked and defeated by Muzaffar near Barodah. Q.’s servants even joined Muzaffar, whilst he himself retreated to the Fort of Barodah. After a short time he capitulated and surrendered to Muzaffar, who had promised not to harm him or his family. But at the advice of a Zamindar, Muzaffar went to Bahronch, occupied the Fort in which Q.’s family lived, and confiscated his immense property (10 krors of rupees), as also 14 lacs of imperial money. Immediately after, Muzaffar had Q. murdered.
His son Naurang Khan served under Mirza Khan Khanan (No. 29) in Gujrat (992), received a jagir in Malwah and subsequently in Gujrat. He died in 999. The MSS. of the Tabaqat, which I consulted, contain the remark that Naurang Khan was a Commander of Four Thousand, and was, in 1001, governor of Junagarh.
His second son, Gujar Khan, was a Haftgadi (No. 193), and served chiefly under M. A’zam Khan Kokah (No. 21). He also had a tuyul in Gujrat.
