The Institutes of Akbar 113: AIN 64. · REGULATIONS FOR OILING CAMELS, AND INJECTING OIL INTO THEIR NOSTRILS.

113

The scientific terms for these operations are tatliyah and tajrí’, though we might expect tafliyah and tánshíq, because tanshiq means injecting into the nose.
For each Bughdi and Jammdzah 3½ sers of sesame oil are annually allowed, viz., three sers for anointing, and ½ ser for injection into the nose. So also 2 s. of brimstone, and 6½ s. of butter-milk. For other kinds of camels the allowance is 2 s. of brimstone, 6½ s. of butter-milk, and 2 s. of grease for injecting into the nose-holes.
Formerly these operations were repeated three times, but now only once a year.
