2.5

When he died, his son, whose name was Ahmad Khan, neither got the title of Khan Jahan nor his father's rank. Mian Zainu-d din and Mian Zabaru-d din were two officers of the deceased Khan Jahan, and his army and parganas were given over to their charge. A royal farman was also sent at the same time to the address of Zainu-d din, informing him that these privileges were granted by His Majesty of his own free motion, and not in consequence of Zainu-d din's connexion with Khan Jahan Lodi. From that time Zainu-d din took the muster of the army, and had charge of the parganas. The jagir of the archers was maintained, to be enjoyed by them. To Ahmad Khan, son of Khan Jahan, a tract was granted from the district of Kaithal, in the name of his mother, besides an annual allowance of one lac of tankas for the purchase of horses, one lac of tankas for his clothing, and another lac for betel-leaves and other miscellaneous expenses.
