Abul Hasan Qutb Shah (Abul Hasan Tana Shah) (Urdu: ???????? ??? ???) was the eighth and last ruler of the Qutb Shahi dynasty, who ruled the kingdom of Golconda in south India. He ruled from 1672 to 1687. In 1687 the Mughal emperor Aurangzeb led a campaign to reassert the rule of Mughals in Golconda. Tana Shah defended the fort for eight months, but Aurangazeb succeeded in capturing Golconda in September 1687. Abul Hasan Qutb Shah surrendered and handed over the Nur-ul-Ain Diamond, The Hope Diamond, Wittelsbach Diamond and The Regent Diamond making the Mughal Emperor Aurangzeb the richest monarch in the world. Tana Shah was taken as a prisoner and was imprisoned in the Daulatabad fort (near Aurangabad) where he died after 12 years of captivity. When the Sultan died, he was not buried alongside his ancestors and other Qutb Shahi kings but in a modest grave at Khuldabad near Aurangabad. With the defeat of Abul Hasan Qutub Shah the Qutb Shahi dynasty ended and a new Nizam dynasty began in Hyderabad under the control of the Mughal Dynasty.
