3.3.7
The murder of 'Azam Humayun was the first cause of the decline of the kingdom, for Fath Khan, his son, who commanded 10,000 horse, and was Governor of Bihar, joined himself, in Bihar, with the son of Darya Khan Lohani, Shahbaz Khan by name. They then openly rebelled against the Sultan, and collected 70,000 horse. Shahbaz Khan assumed the title of Sultan Muhammad. This insurrection was of a very serious nature, as all Bihar ceased to obey the Sultan.
