Mirza Khujista Akhtar Jahan Shah[3] (Persian: میرزا خجسته اختر جهان شاه) (4 October 1673 – 30 March 1712/30) was the fourth son of Emperor Bahadur Shah I. The birthdate of Mirza Khujista Akhtar Jahan Shah is debated, according to his found memoir his death date is now set on 1730. Both dates are correct otherwise then.[4]
