description: "Mozaffar-Hosayn Mirza was an Iranian nobleman from the Safavid dynasty that held the governorship of Qandahar from 1578 until his defection to India in 1595. His rule was characterized by his constant conflict with his younger brother, Rustam Mirza, and his regent, Kur Hamza Beg. In 1593, he killed Hamza Beg and captured Rustam's lands. He was then faced with raids from the Uzbek of Bukhara and the Mughal emperor Akbar wanting to conquer Qandahar. Unable to drive the Uzbeks away, he surrendered Qandahar to Akbar and defected to India. He was honoured greatly by Akbar and his daughter, Kandahari Begum, was married to Akbar's grandson, the future Shah Jahan. His son and grandson became high-ranking officials in the Mughal bureaucracy."
