The Riyazu-s-salatin (Abdus Salam) 94 - **Language:** English ### [94](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.east.riyaz-al-salatin~en-abdus-salam.94) In the 21st year of the Emperor's accession, corresponding to 1030 A.H., Mukkaram Khan was appointed to the Nezamat of the Subah of Bengal. Many months had not elapsed, when by chance, an Imperial firman came to his address. The Khan in order to receive it, advanced. As the time for afternoon prayer had arrived, he ordered his servants to moor his boat towards the bank, so that he might turn to business, after finishing prayer. The boatmen attempted to take the barge towards the bank. At this time, a strong wind blew, and sent the boat adrift. A severe gale coupled with a storm-wave, caused the boat to sink. Mukkaram Khan with his companions and associates was drowned, and not a single man escaped. - [Previous: 93](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.east.riyaz-al-salatin~en-abdus-salam.93) - [Next: 95](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.east.riyaz-al-salatin~en-abdus-salam.95) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.east.riyaz-al-salatin~en-abdus-salam.94](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.east.riyaz-al-salatin~en-abdus-salam.94) · Pramāṇa
