In September 1605, Akbar fell ill due to dysentery or some kind of diarrhea. His physician Hakim Ali failed to diagnose the trouble correctly and for eight days he refrained from prescribing any medicines. Akbar's condition grew worse due to the agitation produced by the quarrel between the supporters of his son Salim and grandson Khusrau. Hakim Ali began treating Akbar on the ninth day of his illness and continued to do so for ten days, but which produced no effect. On his death bed Akbar nominated Salim (later Jahangir) as his successor. He died on Oct 15, 1605.
