  • Dost Mohammad Khan (c. 1657–1728) was the founder of Bhopal State in central India. He founded the modern city of Bhopal, the capital of the Madhya Pradesh state. A Pashtun from Tirah, Dost Mohammad Khan joined the Mughal Army at Delhi in 1703. He rapidly rose through the ranks, and was assigned to the Malwa province in central India. After the death of the emperor Aurangzeb, Khan started providing mercenary services to several local chieftains in the politically unstable Malwa region. In 1709, he took on the lease of Berasia estate, while serving the small Rajput principality of Mangalgarh as a mercenary. He invited his Pashtun kinsmen to Malwa to create a group of loyal associates. Khan successfully protected Mangalgarh from its other Rajput neighbors, married into its royal family, and took over the state after the death of its heirless dowager Rani. Khan sided with the local Rajput chiefs of Malwa in a rebellion against the Mughal empire. Defeated and wounded in the ensuing battle, he ended up helping an injured Sayyid Hussain Ali Khan Barha, one of the Sayyid Brothers. This helped him gain the friendship of the Sayyid Brothers, who had become highly influential king-makers in the Mughal court. Subsequently, Khan annexed several territories in Malwa to his state. Khan also provided mercenary services to the Rani Kamlapati, the ruler of a small Gond kingdom, and received the territory of Bhopal (then a small village) in lieu of payment. After the Rani's death, he killed her son and annexed the Gond kingdom. During the early 1720s, he transformed the village of Bhopal into a fortified city, and claimed the title of Nawab, which was used by the Muslim rulers of princely states in India. Khan's support to the Sayyid Brothers earned him the enmity of the rival Mughal nobleman Nizam-ul-Mulk. The Nizam invaded Bhopal in March 1724, forcing Khan to cede much of his territory, give away his son as hostage and accept the Nizam's suzerainty. In his final years, Khan sought inspiration from Sufi mystics and saints, veering towards spiritualism. He and the other Pashtuns who settled in Bhopal during his reign, brought the Pashtun and Islamic influence to the culture and architecture of Bhopal. At its zenith, the Bhopal State comprised a territory of around 7,000 square miles (18,000 km2). Nearly a century after Khan's death, the state became a British protectorate in 1818, and was ruled by the descendants of Dost Mohammad Khan till 1949, when it was merged with the Dominion of India.

Em 1709, ele tomou concessão do estado de Berasia, enquanto servia no pequeno principado de Mangalgarh como um mercenário. Ele convidou o seus seguidores Pastós para Malwa para criar um grupo de associados leais. Cã se aliou com os chefes Rajput locais de Malwa em uma rebelião contra o Império Mogol. Derrotado e ferido na batalha crucial, ele terminou ajudando um ferido chamado, Saíde Huceine Ali Cã Barha, um dos . Isso o ajudou a ganhar a amizade dos irmãos Saíde, que tinham se tornado "fazedores de reis" altamente influentes na corte Mogol. Consequentemente, Cã anexou vários territórios de Malwa ao seu estado. Cã também fez serviços mercenários, Rani Kamlapati, o governante de um pequeno reino Gonde, e recebeu o território de Bhopal (na época uma pequena vila) como pagamento. Depois da morte de Rani, ele matou o filho dela e anexou o reino de Gond. Durante o inicio da década de 1720, ele transformou a vila de Bhopal em uma cidade fortificada, e ficou com o título de Nababo, que era usado pelos governantes de principados muçulmanos na Índia. O apoio de Cã aos irmãos Saíde deu a ele a inimizade de um nobre mogol rival que tinha o título de Nizã Almulque. O Nizã invadiu Bhopal em março de 1724, forçando Cã a ceder muito do seu território, dar o seu filho de refém e aceitar a soberania do Nizã. Em seus anos finais, Cã buscou inspiração nos mitos e santos Sufistas, venerando além do espiritualismo. Ele e outros Pastós que se assentaram em Bhopal durante o seu reinado, trouxeram a influência pastó e muçulmana a cultura e a arquitetura de Bhopal. Durante o seu apogeu, o estado de Bhopal possuiu um território de dezoito mil quilômetros quadrados. O estado se tornou um protetorado britânico em 1818 e foi governado pelos descendentes de Dost Maomé Cã até 1949, quando se uniu ao Domínio da Índia. (pt)
