Next year to that Vazir Fateh Khan\nand Sirdar Doust Mohamed Khan started out to Kashmire. Attaullah\nagreed to pay three lakhs of the revenue of the land; but he did\nnot vindicate his promise. This resulted in a battle. Attaullah Khan\nwas defeated and fled to the mountains of Maran, and Vazir Fateh\nKhan appointed his brother Sirdar Mohamed Azeem Khan as the\ngovernor of Kashmire. Intercession of scholars and clergy made\nVazir Fateh Khan not to do anything to Attaullah Khan. Atlast, he\nAttaullah, skirting by way of Dera Jat, arrived at Kandahar to join\nKamran.\n\nAfter pacifying the issue of Kashmire, Vazir Fateh Khan tra-\nvelled westward to Herat: where he removed the local influence of\nHaji Firouz Khan. There he further aggravated the views of the\nKachars against the Ghours, and further excited the rivalry of Kam-\nran also Attaullah, too, who was over pleased with the above menti-\noned, joined the enemies of Fateh Khan. Both of them went to\nHerat and in the crime of blinding the Vazir; on the part of the\nhelped prince Kamran. After these events, when Shah Mahmud was\nhimself going toward Kandahar, he left his son Jahangir and At-\ntaullah at Kabul. Much time had not passed, when Sirdar Doust\nMohamed Khan and Yar Mohmed Khan, reached Kabul as well.\nJahangir gave himself up, and Attallah Khan, for the crime of taking\npart in the crime of blinding the Vazir Fateh Khan was blinded\nhimself. Ever aftear that his life was spent in misfortune and in dis-\ngrace and want.","chars":1938,"image":"https://storage.googleapis.com/adl-page-images/adl1197/00054.jpg","first_page":1,"last_page":205,"title":"Men and events through 18th and 19th century Afghanistan","permalink":"https://afghanpress.org/book/adl1197/54","canvas":"https://afghanpress.org/iiif/adl1197/canvas/54","source":"https://afghanistandl.nyu.edu/books/adl1197/","source_pdf":"https://afghanistandl.nyu.edu/pdf/adl1197_download.pdf","rights":{"image":{"statement":"Public domain.
