Personal Information
Kamran was the second or third son born to Babur, but the second surviving son. His mother was Gulrukh Begum, sister of Sultan Ali Mirza Taghai Begchik.
Wives and children:
- (Gulrukh?) Begum, his first cousin, daughter of his maternal uncle Sultan Ali Mirza Taghai Begchik; married at Kabul in November 1528; presumably mother of
- Habiba Sultan Begum, born about 1530; married (A) in Hazara, 1544, Esan Daulat Aq Sultan Chaghatai, son of Aiman Kwaja Khan Chaghatai; divorced 1551/1552; married (B) 1551/1552 Mirza Abdu-r Rahman Khan Dughlat
- Gulrukh Begum, died after February 1615; married Ibrahim Husain Mirza Bayqra, died 1573, son of Sultan Muhammad Mirza.
- Hazara Begum, niece of Khizr Khan Hazara ; alive in October 1545
- Mah Begum Qibchaq Moghol, daughter of Sultan Wais Kulabi Qibchaq Moghol;alive in October 1545
- Mah Afroz Begum, alive in October 1545; mother of a daughter:
- Haji Begum, died 1583. Haji is evidently a surname. Mah Afroz Begum is said by Gulbadan Begum to be the mother of Haji Begum. When Gulbadan went on pilgrimage to Mekkah in 1575, she was accompanied by 2 daughters of her late brother Kamran: Haji Begum and Gulizar Begum. 4 daughters of Kamran are known by their names: Habiba, Gulrukh, Ayisha and Gulizar. None of them can be identified with Haji begum: Gulrukh was still alive in 1615; Ayisha's mother was Daulat Bakht Agacha; Gulizar went to Mekkah with Haji, and Habiba is mentioned by Gulbadan together with Mah Afroz, but the latter is identified at the same time as the mother of Haji Begum, and not of Habiba as well.
- Muhtarima Khanum, daughter of Shah Mohammed Sultan Chaghatai and Khadija Sultan Khanum Chaghatai; she married (B) in 1557/1558 Ibrahim Sultan Mirza Miranshah, died 1560, son of Suleiman Mirza Miranshah and Haram Begum. She had a daughter by Kamran:
- Gulizar Begum, born bef. 1550; went to Mekkah in 1575. Gulbadan Begum informs us that Muhtarima had a daughter by Kamran, but unfortunately does not name her. As Ayisha's mother was Daulat Bakht Agacha, and Habiba and Gulrukh were most presumably born of the first wife, Muhtarima's daughter must be Gulizar, or another unatested daughter of Kamran.
- Mah-i-Kuchuk Begum, married before 21 February 1547; died at Mekkah, May 1558), only child of Mir Shah Husain Arghun, Lord of Sind, Kandahar and Kabul, by his wife, Mah-i-Kuchuk Begum, daughter of Mirza Muhammad Muqim Beg Aghun. She accompanied Kamran to Mekkah in 1553

“In our personal ambitions we are individualists. But in our seeking for economic and political progress as a nation, we all go up—or else all go down—as one people.”
—Franklin D. Roosevelt (1882–1945)
“Theories of child development and guidelines for parents are not cast in stone. They are constantly changing and adapting to new information and new pressures. There is no “right” way, just as there are no magic incantations that will always painlessly resolve a child’s problems.”
