When the police superintendent learned that Ottoman army was coming informed Shah Abbas that he would turn Baghdat over him and would have an oration declared on behalf of him.Also he would have money coined.Meanwhile Hafiz Ahmet Pasha coming to Baghdat had to withdraw from the city due to the strong opposition.On the other hand it was warranted and promised that the rule of Baghdat would be turned over Bekir Subasi on condition that Baghdat wouldnt be turned over Shah Abbas.As it was demanded the police superintendent approved of the offer and the imperative.Therefore Hafiz Ahmet Pasha withdraw to Diyarbakir when the condition in the area was settled.The facts that Bekir Subasi accepted the government of Baghdat and Hafiz Ahmet Pasha drew back from the area ,made Shah Abbas start action.Shah Abbas wanted Bekir Subasi turn Baghdat over him but this offer was rejected.Thereupon he besieged Baghdat.
People couldnt endure any longer due to hunger,thirst und illness so the city was turned over Shah Abbas. Shah Abbas assinated Bekir Subasi and his brothers,Baghdat kadisi and 4000 people from the public and sent soldiers to Kerkuk as soon as he entered Baghdat. Meanwhile Bostan Pasha,who didnt have much force,drew back to Diyarbakir. Kerkuk castle was occupied easily by the forces under the command of Shah Abbas as it was not in a firm condition. Shah Abbas took over Kerkuk then he turned towards Musul. And he turned over it in quite a short time. Later he turned the government of Musul over Kasim Han from his commanders after taking it from Cerkes Huseyin Pasha .In the war, taken place through the bridge,Ottoman army which was under the command of Karaman Governor Vizir Hasan Pasha defeated Iran forces.Thereupon Kerkuk was taken over again by Bostan Pasha and in the same year, Hafiz Pasa try at taking Musul over again wasnt successful.Meanwhile Iran had attacked Kerkuk and Vizier Hasan Pasha martyried.
Serdar-i Ekrem Husrev Pasha joining 1629 Iran War continued war although lots of soldiers and animals laden with equipment had drowned while passing accross the Zap, with overflowing waters. Then he had Gulanber Castle reconstructed and turned towards Sehr-i Zor. As the Iran forces there had drawn back ,Sehr-i Zor was turned over easily and it was turned Arnavudoglu Vizier Hasan Pasha.
In.... ,while Husrev Pasha was turning back Musul ,Iran forces attacked Gulenber Castle .Arnavutoglu Mustafa Pasha martyried in the war made with Iran forces in Sercinar while he was sending cannos and following after them. After this event Sehr-i Zor was taken by Safeviler again and Husrev Pasha had to drew back to Musul, Husrev Pasha had Musul strenghtened and had the city enclosed with ramparts,while he had been there. Sultan I\/. Murad ,going to Baghdat War in 1638,was welcomed with a ceremony by imadiye ruler Kubad Bey when he came to Imadiye. Sultan Murad had been quite pleased with Kubad Beys this behaviour. For that reason he gifted Imadiye to Kubad Bey throughouthis life, Murad Han, coming to Kerkuk from Maberzab, Semamek, Dirdavud, Incesu, Altinkopru and Goktepe, turned the administration of province over Kayis Mehmed Pasa but later he discharged Pasa owing to peoples complaint.
Shah Abbas had Baghdat Castle strenghtened as soon as he learnt that Sultan Murad had come come. I\/.Murad set up headquarters in Samra district, near Bagdat, and controlled all the entrances and exist to the city. Also he besieged Bagdat for 40 years. Meanwhile ,by means of underground tunnels he had some parts of the castle destroyed and managed to have ways opened. Consequently he took over Bagdat. Therefore Shah Abbas danger was removed and the area was turned over Ottoman again.Then Kasr-i Sirin Treaty was signed and The Turkish-Iran boundary ,Keeping its original shape since 1639, was shown.
Its seen that there are emigrations from Musul to various places. People had to emigrate to other places due to the famine sprining from earthquakes and droughts taken place frukuently,in addition to Iran attacks .For example ,an earthquake occured in Musul in 1667 had caused very big damage.Also in 1711 a famine came about and cultivated areas were invaded by grasshoppers.

The administration of Musul was started to be turning over the governors,related to Abdulcelil Family,from native families and notables.And firstly Abdulcelilzade Ismail Pasha was appointed as governor. This governor joined lots of reforms in Musul and managed to realize these.Shah Tahmasb attacked Ottoman lands all of a sudden and sent his vizier Nergis Han to take over Musul. Hüseyin Pasha struggled with Nergis Han violently and defeated Iranians severely.
On the other hand ,Iran forces,sent to Kerkuk and Erbil were defeated badly like were in Musul and had to withdraw. The Ottoman Empire supposed Iran forces entering in their lands as a War reason started action immediately and Morali Topal Osman Pasha was set out with 170.000 soldiers.Mirmiran Ali Pasha (Possessor of Sehr-i Zor), Babonlu Ahmet Pasha ,and Riza Pasha (Possessor of Savicbulak took part in Orduyu humayın.

But people attacked to Iran soldiers with sticks and stones and tried to expel them from country.Because Iranians broke their promise and began to plunder country.On the other hand, Nadir Shah set up a headquarters in a place, close Musul.He had 12 bastions and many trenches made and sent a letter to Mufti of Musul in order to want surrendering of Musul without sheding blood.Although Goverror Hüseyin Pasha explained the situation to people gathered in red Mosque, they were decided to defend the country .So Huseyin Pasha had the ramparts of Musul repaired and had the trenches dug around the city.

On the other hand, Hasan Pashasiretve (Governor of Musul and comander in chief) took the scoutmasterswith him.
