[Text, vol. ii. p. 163.] [In this year (980) died Sulaimán Kirání, ruler of Bengal, who had assumed the title of Hazrat-i 'álá. He had conquered that mine of infidelity, the city of Katak and Banáras, and had made Jagannáth a home of Islám. His authority extended from Kámrú (Kámrúp) to Orissa. His son Báyazíd succeeded him; but in the course of five or six months, the Afgháns put him to death, and his brother Dáúd bin Sulaimán attained the sovereignty.]
