A capable and disciplined administrator, he worked to preserve and strengthen his father’s reforms, maintaining efficient revenue systems and a strong centralized government. Islam Shah also suppressed rebellious nobles and rival claimants to secure his authority, though his strict rule created resentment among the Afghan elite.
