But Shah 'Alam had a grievance against him for his refusal to sign the paper of the feigned rebellion (II. 124), also for his not treating him (the prince) with sufficient respect. A splendid opening had now been found by Shah 'Alam for ending the life of this famous commander, and he caused poison to be administered to him whilst he was conducting the campaign against Bijapur. Aurangzeb was grieved at the death of so great and so faithful a general, for whom he had considerable affection, in spite of his being a Pathan. It is the rule in the Mogul realm not to trust that race. The unhappy Bijapur ruler, in addition to an invasion from Aurangzeb's army, found himself attacked by Sambha Ji, who at this time took from him some fortresses, and was thus ever strengthening himself against the Mogul. - [Previous: 177.2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.177.2) - [Next: 177.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.177.4) - [Up: 177](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.177) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.177.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.177.3) · Pramāṇa
