<br />
During his reign, Bidar was attacked by [[Murtaza Nizam Shah I|Murtaza Nizam Shah]], who intended to annex it as a [[jagir]] for his general Sahib Khan.

{{notelist|refs=<br />
{{efn|name=fn1|[[Firishta]]'s history and the inscriptions on Ali Barid's tomb mention the year of his demise to be 987 [[Hijri]], which may correspond to 1579 or 1580 in the Gregorian calendar. The exact date or month of his death is not known. However, historians consider it to be 1580 as it is consistent with the fact that his successor Ibrahim Barid Shah ruled for seven years.{{sfn|Yazdani|1947|pp=86, 152}}}}}}<br />
