Wives.—Jahandar Shah was married on the 5th Shaban 1087 H. (14th October, 1676) to the daughter of Mirza Murad Kam, Mukarram Khan Safawi, and then, on the 18th Ramzan 1095 H. (30th August, 1684) to that lady's niece, Sayyid-un-nissa Begam, daughter of Mirza Rustam, son of Mukarram Khan. Another wife was Anup Bai, who died at Dihli on the 25th Zul Qada 1147 H. (17th April 1735). She was the mother of Aziz-ud-din (Alamgir II). One wife, or rather concubine, was the woman we have so often mentioned, Lal Kunwar, a dancing girl, created Imtiyaz Mahal after Jahandar Shah's accession.*
