After that the turmoil of battle had subsided, Nazar Bahadur made Bahadur Khan ride behind him on the same horse, and brought him to the Imperial Presence. The Emperor did not wish to put him to death, but asked him : ‘ Bahadur how are you.’ He replied, ‘ Praise is due to God in all circumstances.’ And when he asked for water, the Emperor gave him some out of his own canteen. But the Amirs did not deem it advisable to spare his life, so they brought about his execution.
