Description

Abdul Hameed Lahori’s Padshahnama on Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan is a very well known and extensively quoted primary source, which incidentally is also the only source about the early career of Emperor Muhi-ud-din Muhammad Aurangzeb Bahadur Alamgir till the War of Succession and was known to the Historians in the form of its only Persian Text published long back. It was translated by Dr Siddiqi while he was a Postgraduate student of History and is now being presented here in the form of this book as he translated it then from its only Urdu Translation and then compared and paginated it with its published Persian text.
