Tabaqat-I-Akbari was written by Khwaja Nizammuddin Ahmed Harawi, written during the reign of Akbar. It is a history in nine parts from the first appearance of Islam in India up to the date of its composition in 1593-94. Tabaqat-i-Akbari is a very important source for the history of the Saiyid and Lodi Sultans.
After Sher Shah Suri conquered malwa from Qadir shah, he appointed Shujaat Khan as the governor. His son, Baz Bahadur, declared himself independent in 1555 CE. Baz Bahadur was the last sultan of Malwa.
Bakshi was appointed by the imperial court at the recommendation of the Mir Bakshi. Bakshi was responsible for checking and inspecting the horses and soldiers which were maintained by the mansabdars in the suba.
