Sultan Ghiyasu-d-Din brought up an army against Tughral but he went towards Jajnagar and Narkila (Nai'kila) and Malik Ikhtiyaru-d-Din Beg Birlas was ordered to pursue him, the Rai of Sunargaon named Dhanuj offering his services to the Sultan engaged to bring Tughral, and Malik Ikhtiyaru-d-Din proceeding by forced marches found Tughral, who had fled into a jungle, walking about off his guard, and having put him to death sent his head to the court. The Sultan conferred that kingdom with a canopy and baton of office on his younger son Bughra Khan, Governor of Samana, who eventually received the time of Sultān Nāsiru-d-dīn, and then left for the capital. Since, after the death of Shēr Khān (who was uncle's son to the Sultān and one of the "Forty Slaves" of Sultān Shamsu-d-dīn, and Governor of Lahōr and Dīpālpūr, and had read the khutba in Ghaznīn in the name of Nāṣiru-d-dīn, the Mughūls during his governorship not daring to invade Hindūstān) the road of communication had become opened to the Mughūls, accordingly Sultān Balban, to remedy this, despatched his elder son Sultān Muḥammad, who is known as the Khān-i-Shahīd and Sultān-i-Shahīd, (having first conferred upon him a canopy and baton of office, and the signs and insignia of royalty, and having made him his heir-apparent, and giving over Sind with its dependencies to his care) with full equipment towards Multān, and the country right up to Tatthā and the seacoast was in his possession.
