She was a daughter of Sultan Husain Mirza Baiqra and of Payanda Sultan Begam Miran-shahi. Her descent being so high through both parents, her name Agha rises above its frequent application to wives of less degree. Here it may have the meaning of chief or great. She married her cousin Murad who was a son of Rabia-sultan Begam (Beka). The Habibu-s-siyar, 327 et seq. (lith. ed.), states that she died before she reached maturity, but this does not agree with Babar's statements. The Habib places her death earlier than 912H. (1506).
