	In June 1839, Hamid sent Arbaaz to retrieve a [[Voynich manuscript\|document]] in [[Isu script]] about the Koh-i-Noor diamond, a powerful [[Piece of Eden]]. After explaining the diamond's legend to Arbaaz, Hamid revealed that the Koh-i-Noor was held by Maharaja [[Ranjit Singh]] in [[Amritsar]], and that the [[British Rite of the Templar Order\|British Templars]] were plotting to steal it; while Ranjit Singh had been the diamond's keeper for nine years, his successors did not share his determination to it, which the Templars sought to exploit.

He freed Hamid and fended off several guards that tried to prevent their escape. Hamid then informed Arbaaz of the Templars' plans and directed him to [[Tosha Khana]], an Isu [[Temple (Isu)\|temple]] under the Maharaja's [[Ranjit Singh's summer palace\|summer palace]], tasking his apprentice to retrieve the Koh-i-Noor and the box.<ref name="The Quest Begins" /> While Arbaaz did so, Hamid followed Burnes and learned the Templars were organizing an expedition to [[Afghanistan]].<ref name="The Enemy Revealed">''[[Assassin's Creed Chronicles: India]]'' – [[The Enemy Revealed]]</ref>

	After Arbaaz's confrontation with Sleeman inside ~~the Isu temple~~ resulted in its destruction, Hamid, drawn by the commotion, arrived at the scene to find his apprentice, who had barely ~~managed to escape~~ the collapsing temple in time. Hamid briefly scolded Arbaaz for his recklessness, remarking that the temple was priceless, before ~~the latter informed him~~ of Sleeman using the Koh-i-Noor and the box to unlock a [[Isu map\|map]] highlighting various locations across [[Earth]].

	Following Arbaaz's return from Afghanistan, where he retrieved the Koh-i-Noor and the box from the Templars, he met with Hamid to tell him of his mission's success, only to be informed that Sleeman had taken over the ~~Summer Palace~~ and was holding Pyara hostage.
