- **Language:** English

### [182.1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.admin.ain-i-akbari~en-blochmann-jarrett.182.1)

Farmán i sabtís are issued for three purposes :— 1. For appointments to a Manṣab; to the Vakílship; to the post of Sipahsálár (governor of a province and Commander-in-Chief); to the tutorship of the princes; to the rank of Amírulumará (vide p. 240); to a Náibí, or districtship; to the post of Vazir, or Finance Minister; to the Bakhshiship, (Paymaster and Adjutant General); to the post of a Çadr, or a judge. 2. For appointments to jágírs, without military service; for taking charge of a newly conquered territory; sometimes . . . . 3. For conferring Sayúrgháls (vide Áín 19); for grants on account of daily subsistence allowance; and for grants for beneficent purposes. When the Ta'líqah has been made out, the Díwán i Jágír (who keeps the Jágír accounts) pays the stipulated grant. If the jágír is given for military services, with the order of bringing horses to the muster, the grant is once more sent to the Bakhshís for inspection, when the following words are written either on the back or the corner of the paper—kháçah, o mardum baráward numáyand; kárguzárán i ín shughl chihrahnawísí kunand (this is special; the estimate for the salary may be made out. The proper officers are to prepare the descriptive rolls). When the horses are then branded at the time of the muster, the Bakhshí general takes the Ta'líqah, keeps it, and hands instead of it a writing specifying the amount of the monthly salary, duly signed and sealed.
