Died 7th February 1661 (aged 44).&nbsp;He was the second of the four sons of Shah Jahan, the eldest being Dara Shikoh, followed by Aurangzeb and Murad Bakhsh. All four sons held posts as governors during their father&rsquo;s reign. Shah Shuja was appointed by Shah Jahan as the Governor of Rajmahal (then called Akbarnagar) in Jharkhand state.
