Topic: Nasrullah Khan


  
  Abdur Rahman Khan
Although his father, Afzul Khan, who had none of these qualities, came to terms with the Amir Shir Ali, the son's behaviour in the northern province soon excited the amir's suspicion, and Abdur Rahman, when he was summoned to Kabul, fled across the Oxus into Bokhara.
However, Ayub Khan, one of Shir Ali's sons, marched upon that city from Herat, defeated Abdur Rahman's troops, and occupied the place in July.
From that time Abdur Rahman was fairly seated on the throne at Kabul, and in the course of the next few years he consolidated his dominion over all Afghanistan, suppressing insurrections by a sharp and relentless use of his despotic authority.

The city's architectural wonders include the giant ramparts of the fortress known as the Ark, the banded patterns of the dizzying 47-m high Kalan minaret and the delicate brickwork of the Ismail Samani Mausoleum.
From the square in front, 19th century ruler Nasrullah Khan oversaw the executions of thousands.
The twin turrets of the West Gate are breathtaking, as is the all-encompassing view from the Khan's Kunya Ark. Tour the bazaar outside the eastern wall: until 1873 thousands of slaves—Russians, Kurds and Persians—were sold at the pens by the Eastern Gate.
