Sayyad Ilahi Bakhsh al Husainl Angrezdbadi. 
“ He regarded the world as of no account.” 
His tomb is beside his father’s on the south side, and his prayer- 
stone lies just to the west. Shaikh A £ zam Shah commonly known as 
Khan A £ zam, was the elder brother of Nur Qutb, and was a King’s 
Vizier. As‘ad of Lahore was the father of Alau-l-haqq and grand¬ 
father of Nur Qutb. He was a King’s Treasurer. Adam Saudagar 
was the father-in-law (?) of Nur Qutb. His grave is near Alau-l- 
haqq’s on the south side, and near it lies the inscription of Adam Sau¬ 
dagar. The tomb of Shah Ikram is outside of the enclosure of Nur 
Qutb’s tomb and on the east side. It is 8|- cubits long and a little less 
than 5 cubits broad. When I asked who he was, one of the custodians 
said that he was a superintendant of the endowment. Hear the tomb 
of Alau-l-haqq are the tombs of his wife and daughter, and of his 
wife’s sister. 
The genealogical tree of Nur Qutb is as follows:— 
It is not of sufficient importance to be published. The author men¬ 
tions that descendants of Nur Qutb are still living in the village of EklakkhT, 
in the district of Burdwan. I do not know if this name is a reminiscence 
of the Eklakkhi mosque. 1 
The author notices the tomb of a child, the son of a prince of Subza- 
war in Kh urasan named *Inayatu-llah. He gives the inscription, but it is in 
Ravenshaw, p. 53. The child died on 1st Ramzan 1017 (1608). The people 
call it the tomb of the Kala Plr. The tomb is of black basalt, and near 
Alau-l-haqq. Here too is the tomb of Sher Kh an, a soldier in the service 
of the prince of Subzawar. The inscription is “ Sher Khan, son of Johar 
Khan.” 
The Qutb Shah! Mosque. 
“ This is near the shrine and lies north-east of it, in the jungle. It 
is built entirely of stone. The roof has fallen in, but the walls, &c., 
and pulpit are standing. Its length from north to south is 50 cubits and 
breadth 28 cubits, and it has ten cupolas. From the inscription it 
appears that it was begun by Makhdum Shaikh, son of Muhammadu-1- 
khalidl, in 990 (.1582), and was finished in four years. It also 
appears that Makhdum was a descendant of Nur Qutb. 
The following inscription in Tughra characters is in two lines over 
the doorway.” 
Sir Alexander Cunningham observes, 1. 87. “ There are three inscrip¬ 
tions belonging to this mosque, and that they are all in situ . 
Imperfect copies of the first and last have been given by Ravenshaw, who 
does not, however, notice the pulpit.” 
1 The property of the Twenty-two Thousand endowment is in the Burdwan 
district, and perhaps Nur Qutb’s is there also.
