20.2.3

And after some time enmity arose between him and Taju-d-Din Yalduz, who was one of the slaves of Muizzu-d-Din and had read the Khutba in his own name in Ghaznin, on account of Lahore, and the fire of war and conflict blazed forth on the confines of the Punjab; Taju-d-Din was defeated, and went to Kirman which was his usual abode. Sultan Qutbu-d-Din went and took possession of the fort of Ghaznin and staying there for a period of forty days, spent his time in rioting and wantonness and dissipation. Accordingly the people of Ghaznin were annoyed at his behaviour and secretly summoned Taju-d-Din Yalduz, who arrived without warning, and Sultan Qutbu-d-Din not being able to oppose him came to Lahore by way of Sang Surakh. Verse. When the head of a Sultan becomes unsteady from wine, Without warning the crown of Empire falls from his head. And after wielding power for some time he fell from his horse when playing chaugān at Lahore in the year 607 H., and died; and was buried in that city, and his tomb is at present the resort of pilgrims. The period of his reign after the conquest of Hindustan, was twenty years, out of which period he was for four years a Sultan. This ancient revolving heaven has overthrown many heroes; So far as you are able, place no reliance on the sun and moon and Jupiter.
