Later Mughals v1.c9.s41.t3: C.—Style and title in life, and after death.

v1.c9.s41.t3.1

His titles are nowhere given with completeness. He is called either Abul Muzaffar Muin-ud-din, Mhd. Farrukh-siyar, Badshah, or simply Muin-ud-din Muhammad Farrukh-siyar Badshah; some writers style him Jalal-ud-din, Muhammad Farrukh-siyar, Badshah. After his death he is referred to as the *Shahid-i-marhum*, "the Martyr received into mercy," although I know of no formal statement that this description had been officially assigned to him. As other sovereigns have claimed to be above grammar, so Farrukh-siyar asserted a similar right over the calendar by changing the name of Wednesday from Fourth Day (*chahar shamba*) to Auspicious Day (*Humayun shamba*), and that of Thursday from Fifth Day to Fortunate Day (*mubarik shamba*). From the date of the victory over Jahandar Shah, these days are so referred to in Ijad's history of the reign. [T. M., Warid 148*a*, Ijad 106*a*, Kamwar 137.]
