[1] Sakina Banu Begum was married to Shah Ghazi Khan,[2] the cousin of Naqib Khan Qazvini, a personal friend of Akbar.
His uncle Qazi Isa had long served as the Qadi of Iran, came to India and was taken into government service.
In 1573, after his death, Naqib Khan reported to Akbar that he had left his daughter to him.
[3] In 1578, Sakina Banu Begum was sent to Kabul, before Akbar's second march on the city.
Her brother at that point seemed to have conducted negotiations with the Abdulkhairi Uzbek of the Marwa-un-nahr and with the Safavids, who treated him as a sovereign ruler as well as another Timurid potentate, Prince Sulaiman Mirza.
