Málwa was a dependency of Gujarát and the Nizám Sháhis of Ahmednagar and Nasírkhan of Burhánpur acknowledged him as overlord, while the Fárúkis of Khándesh were dependent on Bahádur's constant help.[3]. As Far­rukhsiyar was cowardly, feeble and incapable of doing either good or evil, the Sayyid brothers took full advantage of the situation. Muhammad Zaman Mirza, the fugitive Mughal prince made his claim on the ground that Bahadur's mother adopted him as her son. His attempt to get rid of the wazir led to his murder. Bahadur Shah's father was Shams-ud-Din Muzaffar Shah II, who had ascended to the throne of the Gujarat Sultanate in 1511. In the morning of February 27, 1719 Sayyid Abdullah with Ajit Singh and his own adherents entered the palace and surrounded it and in the meantime Hussain Ali also reached Delhi and with more than thirty thousand men appeared at the gates of the palace. Bahadur Shah Zafar was over sixty when he rises to the throne of Delhi. The Rána's ambassadors complained of encroachments on Chittor by Mahmúd II of Malwa Sultanate.

But soon they discovered a better roi faineant in Roshan Akhtar, a youth of eighteen, son of Jahan Shah the fourth son of Bahadur Shah. The nobles selected Bahadur's nephew Miran Muhammad Shah of Khandesh as his successor, but he died on his way to Gujarat. Zul- Fiqar Khan, a leader of the Irani party brought all the three brothers by a secret arrangement to stand against Azim-ush-Shan and to di­vide the empire between themselves with Zul-Fiqar as the common minister. Later he was forced to retire because of the stiff resistance put up by the Ahmadnagar army. His name Bahādur means "brave" & "hero" in Turko-Mongol languages. In 1707, Guru Gobind Singh accepted an invitation by Aurangzeb's successor Bahadur Shah I to meet him. But Banda’s timely departure from the fort made the Mughal victory fruitless. Can you explain this answer? Purandhar also was sacked of its stores of gold. But Azam did not agree. Jahandar Shah 3. Bahadur Shah had to leave for Deccan where Kam Baksh was raising an army. Bahadur Shah (Persian: بہادر شاه اول‎—Bahādur Shāh Awwal) (14 October 1643 – 27 February 1712), also known as Muhammad Mu'azzam (Persian: محمد معظم‎) and Shah Alam (Persian: شاه عالم‎) was the seventh Mughal emperor of India, ruled from 1707 until his death in 1712. Hussain Ali viceroy of the Deccan sought to chastise the Nizam who was suspected of trying to make him supreme in the Deccan. He was defeated, and fell wounded into the hands of the Gujarát army and died of his wounds and was buried at Halol. Bahadur Shah, the seventh Mughal emperor of India, ruled from 1707 until his death in 1712. No sooner the news of Aurangzeb’s death reached Rajputana Ajit Singh recovered Jodhpur, his ancestral capital by expelling the Mughal garrison there. Syed Hassan Ali Khan and Syed Hussain Ali Khan, two of the numerous sons of Syed Mian. But Hussain Ali was murdered on his way to Malwa, seat of Nizam- ul-Mulk. Another son of Rafi-us-Shan Rafi-ud-Daulah was placed on the throne by the Sayyid brothers who sought to rule the country through imperial puppets. In addition to his duty as deputy governor of Bengal Mur­shid Quli was also made the governor of Orissa. [1] [2] He ascended to throne after competing with his brothers. But the atmosphere at the court was not liked by him and he soon left for the Deccan where he established a virtually independent king­dom. Finally, the nobles selected Mahmud Khan, the son of Bahadur's brother Latif Khan as his successor and he ascended to the throne as Mahmud Shah III on May 10, 1538. (A. D. Chámpáner fell to Humáyún, and the whole of Gujarát, except Sorath, came under his rule. Whatever may have been the provocation or the intention, the result seems to show that while both sides had treacherous designs neither party was able to carry out his original plan, and the end was unpremeditated, hurried on by mutual suspicions. Malwa was annexed into his kingdom. Based on the terms of the agreement, the Portuguese Empire gained control of the city of Bassein (Vasai), as well as its territories, islands, and seas which included Daman and Bombay islands too. The Sikhs reached the suburbs of Lahore where they were halted by the Muslims of Lahore. Freed from his most formidable rival Bahadur Shah lived in peace in Agra till November of the same year but had to hurry towards Rajputana where troubles brewed up. There was a dispute for the succession to this state, i.e. The only event of Sikandar's reign was the destruction of an army sent against his brother Latíf Khán who was helped by Rána Bhím of Munga (now Chhota Udaipur). [3][4], After passing the rainy season at Mándu, Bahádur Sháh went to Burhánpur to visit his nephew Mirán Muhammad Sháh. From Ahmednagar, Bahádur Sháh passed to Burhánpur, and there his general Kaisar Khán gained a victory over the united forces of Nizám Sháh, Malik Beríd, and Ain-ul-Mulk. Ráisin fell into Bahádur's hands, and this district together with those of Bhilsa and Chanderi were entrusted to the government of Sultán Alam Lodhi. Viramgam and Mándal were taken over from the Jhála chieftains, and ever after formed part of the crown dominions. The deposition of Farrukhsiyar may not be called wrong but the way in which the whole thing was done was excessively harsh and monstrously cruel. The empire now extended to the districts round Delhi. Kam Baksh was defeated near Hyderabad and the wound received by him in the battle caused his death early in 1708. The Sayyid brothers although powerful at court had antagonized many and parti­cularly the antagonism of the Turani nobles as also their own dissensions undermined their power. Mirza Abu Zafar Sirajuddin Muhammad Bahadur Shah Zafar (1775 – 1862), was the last Mughal emperor & a member of the Timurid Dynasty. In his absence in the Deccan Ajit Singh and Jay Singh joined the Maharana Amar Singh of Mewar in a joint resis­tance to the Mughals. Bahadur Shah Zafar or Bahadur Shah II (Persian: بهادرشاه ظفر ‎) (born as Mirza Abu Zafar Siraj-ud-din Muhammad) (24 October 1775 – 7 November 1862) was the last Mughal emperor. The nobles selected Bahadur's nephew Miran Muhammad Shah of Khandesh as his successor, but he died on his way to Gujarat. Bahadur Shah Zafar, also known as Bahadur Shah II, was the last Mughal emperor of India who reigned from 1837 to 1857 for a period of 20 years.

It was created in the second quarter 19th century, most probably in Delhi or the surrounding areas by goldsmiths and jewellers. The situation drew Bahadur Shah to the scene. [4][3], "II. Bahadur Shah placed Bejay Singh as the successor and marched to­wards Jodhpur. Abdullah was more a sol­dier and less of an administrator; as such the whole burden of administration both civil and military fell on Hussain Ali. The Rája of Baglán readily gave Bahádur Sháh his daughter. Bahadur Shah was forced by circum­stances to buy peace with Ajit Singh and Jay Singh and restored them to the Mughal service. 292 likes. Jám Fírúz of Thatta in Sindh and the sons of Bahlúl Lodhi were suppliants at his court. Without considering that he had provoked a powerful enemy, Bahádur Sháh again laid siege to Chittor, and though he heard that Humáyún had arrived at Gwalior, he would not desist from the siege. The new emperor Muhammad Shah though inexperienced and weak was not as feeble and imbecile as his two predecessors. Ghulam Hussain, the author of Seir-ul-Mutakherin observes that ‘Young and handsome, and fond of all kinds of pleasures, he addicted himself to an inactive life, which entirely enervated the energy of the emperor’. As soon as Humáyún departed, the country rose against the Mughals, and his old nobles requested the king to join them. He was by far the ablest man in the entire State and rose to foremost position which he retained till his death in 1748. At his own request, Silehdi was sent to persuade the garrison to surrender. [3], While, Bahadur was engaged in the siege of Mandu against the Mughal, a strong Portuguese fleet sailed from Bombaim (now Mumbai), led by Nuno da Cunha.
