The Áín i Akbari (Blochmann, Jarrett) 113

- **Language:** English

### [113](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.admin.ain-i-akbari~en-blochmann-jarrett.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.
