All the parts of Bengal that were in the possession of the rebels now came again under the authority of the Imperial officers. As 'Itimad Khan had held the government of Gujarat for several years, he was better acquainted with the prosperous management of the country than others could be, and if the government were confirmed to him it might be the means of exciting the emulation of rulers in other countries. For this reason he was appointed governor of Gujarat. Mir Abu Turab was appointed amin, Khwaja Abu-l Kasim, brother of Mulla 'Abdu-l Kadir was appointed diwan, and the humble servant Nizamu-d din Ahmad, the author of this work, was appointed bakhshi. Muhammad Husain Shaikh and \* \* \* were made jagirdars of Gujarat. Amir Fathu-lla, one of the saiyids of Shiraz, a very wise and learned man, had gone from Shiraz to 'Adil Khan in the Dakhin, and had there held high office. On the 22nd Rabi'u-s sani he came to visit the Emperor at Fathpur. Khan-khanan and Hakim Abu-l Fath were sent forth to meet him, and to bring him in with due honour. He was appointed to the exalted office of Sadr. - [Previous: 77](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tabaqat-i-akbari~en-elliot.77) - [Next: 78.1.2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tabaqat-i-akbari~en-elliot.78.1.2) - [Up: 78.1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tabaqat-i-akbari~en-elliot.78.1) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tabaqat-i-akbari~en-elliot.78.1.1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tabaqat-i-akbari~en-elliot.78.1.1) · Pramāṇa
