v4.c19.194

Aurangzīb, to his intense chagrin, received a letter from his father directing him to inform ‘Abdullah that his submission had been accepted and to retire to Aurangābād. He dishonestly concealed this order until he had compelled his victim to submit to his own terms. ‘Abdullah, who had no son, was reduced to the necessity of sending his mother to Aurangzīb’s camp to arrange for the marriage of his daughter to Muhammad Sultān, who was to receive, as her dowry, the district of Rāmgīr and his recognition as heir to the throne of Golconda. All arrears of the exorbitant tribute demanded by Shāh Jahān were to be paid and Mīr Jumla and his son were surrendered to Aurangzīb.
