Chach-náma (extracts) 88 - **Language:** English ### [88](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.conquest.chachnama~en-elliot.88) Then Banana bin Hanzala went with his tribe and an interpreter to the place indicated, and seized Moka bin Bisaya, together with his family and twenty well-known Takars. When Banana brought him before Muhammad Kasim, he was treated with kindness and respect, and the country of Bait was made over to him, and a grant was written to that effect, and a hundred thousand dirams were given to him as a reward. A green umbrella surmounted by a peacock, a chair, and a robe of honour were bestowed upon him. All his Takars were favoured with robes and saddled horses. Historians relate that the first umbrella of Ránagi, or chiefship, which he gave, was this to Moka. At Moka's request, he gave the land and all the towns, fields, and dependencies within the borders of Bait, to him and his descendants; and having entered into a firm treaty with him, directed him to collect boats. - [Previous: 87](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.conquest.chachnama~en-elliot.87) - [Next: 89](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.conquest.chachnama~en-elliot.89) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.conquest.chachnama~en-elliot.88](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.conquest.chachnama~en-elliot.88) · Pramāṇa
