Background
After defeating the Samma Army at Samanagar in the Second Battle of Thatta, Shah Beg started return journey to Shal. He reached Sehwan in 1521 A.D., mid-February, where the Sahta, a branch of the Sammas consisting of both Muslims and Hindus, pledged to resist him, as did the Sodha tribe.Despite this resistance, Shah Beg captured Sehwan Fort and appointed four officials Mir Alikah Arghun, Sultan Muqim Beglar, Kasim Kabak Arghun, and Ahmad Tarkhan to govern the area. He also assigned Sultan Mahmud Khan, a Kokaltash, to Bukkur to secure support from the Arghun, Tarkhan, Kokaltash, Beglar clans who were losing faith in him due to Babur's pressure on Kandahar.
Three days later, Shah Beg was informed that Mahmud Bin Mubarak Khan, Motan Bin Mubarak Khan, Jam Sarang Khan, and Rana Rinmal Sodho were ready to surrender. However, Makhdoom Bilawal, a learned man from the region, convinced them to resist the Arghuns. At the same time, Shah Beg sent Qazi Qadan to persuade Mahmud Khan and Motan Khan, the two sons of Jam Mubarak Khan, also known as Darya Khan, to surrender. Qazi was unsuccessful.
