==Life==
He was the second son of Nawab [[Shuja-ud-Daula|Shuja-ud-daula]]. Saadat Ali Khan succeeded his half-nephew, [[Wazir Ali Khan|Mirza Wazir `Ali Khan]], to the throne of Oudh in 1798. Saadat Ali Khan was crowned on 21 January 1798 at [[Bibiyapur Kothi|Bibiyapur Palace]] in [[Lucknow]], by Sir [[John Shore, 1st Baron Teignmouth|John Shore]].<ref name="nic">{{cite web|url=http://www.lucknow.nic.in/Saadarali.htm |title=Saadat-Ali-Khan (1798-1814) |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20100503093701/http://www.lucknow.nic.in/Saadarali.htm |publisher=National Informatics Centre |archivedate=3 May 2010}}</ref>

In 18, the British concluded a treaty with him, by which half of his dominions were ceded to the [[East India Company]], in return for perpetual British protection of Oudh, from all internal and external disturbances and threats (the British were to later renege on this promise). The districts ceded (then yielding a total revenue of 1 Crore & 35 Lakhs of Rupees) are as under:<ref name="Sleeman 1858">{{Cite book|last=Sleeman|first=William|title=A Journey through the Kingdom of Oude|publisher=Richard Bentley|year=1858}}</ref>

He had three sons, [[Ghazi-ud-Din Haidar Shah|Ghazi ad-Din Haydar]], Shams-ud-daula, and [[Muhammad Ali Shah|Nasser-ud-daula]]. His son Ghazi ad-Din succeeded him, and later his grandson, [[Nasir-ud-Din Haidar Shah|Nasser ad-Din Haydar]]. After that, his son Nasser-ud-daula succeeded the throne, whilst his grandson, Iqbal-ud-daula, son of Shams-ud-daula, made claims to the throne in 1838.<ref>{{Cite book|last=White|first=W|title=The Prince of Oude, or, The claim of the Nawaub Ekbal-ood-Dowlah Bahador to the throne of Oude|publisher=William Strange|year=1838|asin=B0006F9CDK}}</ref> It is important to note that Saadat Ali Khan preferred his son Shams-ud-daula and desired to proclaim his heir, but was prevented by British interference.<ref>{{Cite book|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=iEVpAAAAcAAJ&q=The+Title+of+the+Family+of+Shams-ud-Dowlah+to+the+Throne+of+Oude+Considered&pg=PA3|title=The Title of the Family of Shams-ud-Dowlah to the Throne of Oude Considered|date=1839|publisher=J.
