Afterwards when fresh despatches from Islam Shah reached ‘Adil Khan, he referred the question of his coming to the following four persons upon whose advice and opinion as to its expediency he made his action dependent: Qutb Khan Naib, ‘Isa Khan Niyazi, Khawass Khan, and Jalal Khan Jilwani, all of whom were great Amirs, men of eminence belonging to his family. Islam Shah sent this body of men to him bearing an agreement by which he undertook to allow ‘Adil Khan to depart to his jaegir after the first interview, and to deliver to his control any place in Hindustan which he might select. ‘Adil Khan acting upon the advice of these Amirs proceeded from the neighbourhood of Ranthanbur to Fathpur, otherwise called Sîkrî, and Islem Shâh left Agra and came to Shikârpur, where the royal palace is at present, to receive him; and when they met they first fulfilled the duties of condolence, and evinced great cordiality, and after a short time set out together for Agra. Islem Shâh had plotted treachery against ‘Adil Khân, and had consequently made a stipulation that not more than two or three persons should be left in the fort with ‘Adil Khân. This however was not carried out, and a large body of followers accompanied him; accordingly Islem Shâh was constrained, in order to avoid suspicion, to treat ‘Adil Khân with extraordinary fawning and flattery, saying "I have taken care of these unruly Afghâns so far by artful means, now I make them over to you."
