When he reached the Ravi, he halted, and sent a letter to Daulat Khan Lodi, acquainting him with the particulars of the movement. Upon receipt of this intelligence, Daulat Khan Lodi, at the head of the Panjab forces, came to the assistance of Jam Bayazid before the conflict was at an end, and despatched a confidential person to Sultan Mahmud, to enter into a negociation for peace. At last, through his mediation, a peace was arranged, under the terms of which the Ravi was to be the boundary. Daulat Khan then sent Sultan Mahmud back to Multan, and Jam Bayazid to Shor; after which, he himself proceeded to Lahore. Notwithstanding that the terms of peace had been adjusted by so wise a man as Daulat Khan, yet it did not endure long. In the interim, Mir Jakir Zand, with his two sons, named Mir Ilahdad and Mir Shahdad, came to Multan from Mavi. It was Mir Shahdad that introduced the principles of the Shi'a creed into Multan. As the Langah family had great respect for Malik Suhrab Dudai, Mir Jakir Zand could not remain in Multan. He therefore sought the protection of Jam Bayazid, who treated him with respect, and was pleased to grant a portion of his private domain for the support of the Mir's family. - [Previous: 91](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tabaqat-i-akbari~en-elliot.91) - [Next: 92.2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tabaqat-i-akbari~en-elliot.92.2) - [Up: 92](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tabaqat-i-akbari~en-elliot.92) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tabaqat-i-akbari~en-elliot.92.1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tabaqat-i-akbari~en-elliot.92.1) · Pramāṇa
