To return to home affairs. Twenty days after Khán-khánan arrived at Court, intelligence was brought of the death of Mirza Muhammad Hakim, the Emperor's brother. Orders were given to Raja Bhagwan Das and Kunwar Man Singh, the governor of the Panjab, to go and take possession of Kabul. His Majesty himself proceeded to the Panjab. At this time Mir Murtaza and Khudawand Khan, ruler of the country of Birar in the Dakhin, marched to attack Ahmadnagar. They were defeated in battle by Salabat Khan, the vakil of Nizamu-l Mulk, and then came complaining to the Imperial Court. A farman was sent to 'Azam Khan, ruler of Malwa, directing him to march against the Dakhin, and subdue Birar. Farmans were also sent to Mir Murtaza, Khudawand Khan, Tirandaz Khan, and other men of the Dakhin. Many of the great nobles, such as 'Abdu-l Matlab Khan, \* \* Rai Durga, Raja Askaran, \* \* and many others, too numerous to mention, were sent with artillery, three hundred elephants, and the army of Malwa on this expedition. Mir Fathu-lla, who had received the title of 'Azdu-d daula, was sent to make arrangements in the Dakhin. Khwajagi Fathu-lla was appointed bakhshi, and Mukhtar Beg diwan of this army.
