In A.D. 1523, when, after one of their numerous wars, peace was made between the kings of Bijapur and Ahmadnagar, the sister of Ismael Adil Shah was given to Burhan Nizam Shah and Sholapur was promised as her dowry, but it was not given up. During the next forty years the claim to Sholapur by the Nizam Shah kings was the cause of constant wars. In A.D. 1524, in A.D. 1528, and in A.D. 1531, Burhan Nizam Shah invaded the Sholapur districts, and each time he was defeated. Again in A.D. 1542 he overran them and made them over to Khwaja Jahan, but they were restored on peace being made in the following year. Once more in 1548, Burhan took Gulbarga and Kalyan, and inflicted a severe defeat on Ibrahim Adil Shah; and the next year he took Sholapur, again defeating the Bijapur forces; and for some years he held the conquered districts. Irritated at his defeats Ibrahim Adil Shah suspected the fidelity of one of his chief nobles Seif Ein-ul-Mulk Gelani, and drove him into revolt by his harsh treatment; he retired into the Man desh, and by degrees overran the country as far south as Miraj, defeating the detachments sent against him, and finally an army commanded by the king in person, whom he drove into Bijapur. In this difficulty Ibrahim applied to Ramraj, king of Bijanagar, who sent a force which defeated Seif Ein-ul-Mulk and forced him to fly to the Ahmadnagar territory, where he was killed.
