Muhammad Qazim was appointed Munshi by Aurangzeb in the first year of his reign and was later on commissioned by the emperor to complete the annals of his reign. After the eleventh year, up to which point Muhammad Qazim recorded his history, Aurangzeb forbade its continuation. On the manuscript being shown to Aurangzeb, he withdrew his permission for the preparation of this official history. Alamgirnama is a good detailed history of the first ten years of Aurangzeb’s reign from 1658 to 1668.
Aurangzeb was the sixth Mughal emperor. He was the third son of Shah Jahan and his famous queen, Mumtaz Mahal. He ruled the Indian subcontinent for 49 years. He is considered as the most ablest king of the Mughal empire.
After the death of Achyuta Deva Raya, the succession was disputed. His son, Venkata I also called as Venkata Raya or Venkatadri Raya, succeeded him, but he was a weak ruler and was killed six months later.
