v1.c6.s7.2
Munim Khan, in spite of a wound from a musket ball, had kept the battlefield, and throughout the day displayed the greatest activity. When the victory was won he was so exhausted that he was obliged to be carried on a cloth and laid before his master. Bahadur Shah took him into his arms and embraced him saying, "All I have won is due to your exertions". Naim Khan, the minister's son, had also been wounded. As the minister's wounds were so severe as to prevent his presenting himself at the audience, the Emperor in person visited his quarters to enquire as to his condition. His title of Khan Zaman was converted into that of Khan Khanan Bahadur Zafar Jang, and his rank raised from 1,500 to 7,000 (7,000 horse), with a grant of two krors of dams in cash and goods. His eldest son Muhammad Naim (Khanazad Khan) became Mahabat Khan Bahadur; his younger son, Mukarram Khan, was made Khan Zaman. [Iradat, Qasim 14, K.K. 598, Kamraj 34 a, Dil. 167 a.]
