Originally Muhammad Sayyid, left by Dawud Khan as his Diwan and Fawjdar in 1708 and confirmed as Nawwab of the Carnatic by the Nizam (Nizamu'l-Mulk) in 1723 per the book's own footnote, though the same footnote gives conflicting earlier dates (1710, 1713) from other sources; died without issue in 1732, having adopted a nephew, and was succeeded by his sister's grandson-nephew 'Ali Dost Khan.
