The Institutes of Akbar 359: 128. Mu’inuddin [Ahmad] Khan i Farankhudi.

359

Mu’in joined Humayun’s army when the Emperor left Kabul for Hindustan. In the 6th year of Akbar’s reign, he was made Governor of Agrah during the absence of the Emperor in the Eastern provinces. In the 7th year, when ‘Abdullah Khan Uzbak was ordered to re-conquer Malwah, Mu’in was made a Khan. After the conquest, he divided the province into khaligah and jagir lands, and performed this delicate office to Akbar’s satisfaction. In the 18th year, Mu’in was attached to Mun’im’s Bihar corps. He then accompanied the Khan Khanan to Bengal, was present in the battle of Takaroi, and died of fever at Gaur (vide p. 376).
The Tabaqat merely says of him that he had been for some time Mir Saman. For his son vide No. 157.
Badaoni (III., p. 157) mentions a Jami’ Masjid built by Mu’in at Agrah.
