166

Fifth daughter of Sultan Mahmud Mirza and Khanzada Begam (b) Tirmizi, first cousin and wife of Babar.
She was married at the instance of Qut-luq-nigar, in the year of the capture of Kabul, i.e., 910H. (1504-5), perhaps at the time that Jahangir Mirza, Babar's half-brother, married her half-sister, Aq Begam. The marriage was not happy. Two or three years later Zainab died of small-pox.
Mems., 80.
