After some time he was reconciled to his father, and was entrusted by him with the management of his jagirs. This he carried out with equity and impartiality, using clever devices for the punishment of rebels, and kept them in check. Later on circumstances again led to an estrangement between Farid and his father, and going to Agra with his own brother, he elected to enter the service of Daulat Khan, one of the chief commanders of Sultan Ibrahim, and laid a complaint against his father and brothers before the Sultan. The Sultan however, was displeased at this and said, This is a disgraceful and inhuman state of things that a father should be displeased with his son and that the son should complain against him. Upon the death of Hasan, Daulat Khan made a representation to the Sultan, and obtained his desire in securing these parganas for Shir Khan. There he remained for some time, and eventually was led by the enmity of his brothers to enter the service of Bihar Khan, the son of Darya Khan Luhani, who had read the khutba and issued the sikka in his own name in Bihar, and had assumed the title of Sultan Muhammad. This was at the time when Sultan Ibrahim had taken the field at Panipat, and Babar Padshah had conquered Hindustan and planted the banner of sovereignty.
