None of Aurangzeb’s successors could give any stability to the empire. They were absolutely inefficient.
2. The nobles took advantage of this situation and they enriched and strengthened themselves.
3. Aurangzeb’s son Muajjan won the first round of succession war and sat on the throne under the name Bahadur Shah. He was very inefficient and after his death a quarrel took place among his four sons.
4. The eldest, Jahandar Shah got the throne but was assassinated in 1713 and his nephew Farruksiyar was made emperor by two very influential brothers – the Sayyids.
