'''Mir Qamar-ud-din Khan Siddiqi ''' (11 August 1671{{spnd}}1 June 1748) also known as '''Chin Qilich Qamaruddin Khan''', '''Nizam-ul-Mulk''', '''Asaf Jah''' and '''Nizam I''', was the first [[Nizam of Hyderabad]]. He was married to the daughter of a Syed nobleman of Gulbarga.<ref>{{cite book |url= https://books.google.com/books?id=8ixuAAAAMAAJ&q=syed+nobleman |title= Hyderabad, 400 Glorious Years |author= K.

Following the death of Aurangzeb in 1707, Asaf Jah refused to favour any one of Aurangzeb's warring sons and as such remained neutral. When Aurangzeb's third son [[Bahadur Shah I|Bahadur Shah]] ultimately emerged victorious, Asaf Jah was rotated as governor of multiple Mughal provinces until 1714, when he was created [[Viceroy of the Deccan]] with authority over six Mughal provinces in southern India from 1714 to 1719. From 1719 onwards he was involved in combating the intrigues of the [[Sayyid Brothers]]. From 1720 to 1722 he helped the new Mughal emperor [[Muhammad Shah]] eliminate the Sayyed brothers and was rewarded by being elevated to the [[Grand Vizier|grand viziership]] from 1722 to 1724.
