بہاول پور ہائی کورٹ کے پہلے چیف جسٹس اور سر صادق چہارم کے بچپن میں بننے والی کونسل آف ریجنسی کے پولیٹیکل ایجنٹ سید مراد شاہ اگردیزی

۔ (انصاف کی علامت)۔
جس کے انصاف کے قصے ریاست میں زبان زد عام تھے۔ اور مثل مشہور ہو گئی کہ:
"مر جو گیا مراد شاہ. جیندا ہووے ہا تاں پچھے ہا"
مولانا شمس الدین علوی مرحوم کے ساتھ مل کے بہاولپور کی تاریخ پہ اردو زبان میں مستند کتاب لکھی "تاریخ مراد"۔

مراد شاہ کے کئیے گئے فیصلے جو بعد میں بہاولپور کی تاریخ کا حصہ بن گئے
1. جب بھابھڑاں بازار (موجودہ شاہی بازار) آباد ہونے لگا تو مراد شاہ نے پابندی لگا دی کہ کسی دکان کا دروازہ لوہے کا یا شٹر نہیں لگایا جائے گا بلکہ سب دروازے لکڑی کے ہونگے تاکہ رات کو دکانیں بند کرتے وقت ساتھ والے گھروں میں شور نا جائے
2. اس وقت لوگ کھجور اتارنے کے لئے کسی بھی وقت بغیر آواز دئیےدرخت پر چڑھ جاتے تھے اور لوگوں کے گھروں میں بے پردگی ہوتی تھی. مراد شاہ نے پابندی لگا دی کہ کھجور اتارنے کے لئیے صرف دوپہر کا وقت مقرر ہوگا جس وقت خواتین گھروں کے اندر ہوتی تھیں اور درخت پر یا کسی بھی اونچائی پر چڑھتے وقت تین بار آواز لگانا ضروری تھا
"پردے والے پردہ کر گھنو
کھجی تے چاڑھا چڑھر دے"
