And in the year 709 (1309 A.D.) Malik Naib Kafur went a second time to Arankal and having taken much treasure and several fine elephants and seven thousand horses as a present from Rai Nadar Dev the Governor of Arankal made him a regular tributary. And in the year 710 H. (1310 A.D.) the country of Ma‘bar as far as Dhor Samundar came into the possession of the Muslims. And in the year 711 H. (1311 A.D.) Malik Naib brought to court and presented his spoils consisting of three hundred and twelve elephants, and twenty thousand horses, ninety-six thousand mans of gold, and many chests of jewels and pearls besides other booty beyond the limits of computation; Amir Khusru who was with that army has given full particulars in the Khazainu-l-Futuh: some attributed these victories to respite before punishment, and some to the miraculous powers of Sultan ‘Alau-d-Din, while others held that the peace and security of that reign were due to the unbounded blessings of the Sultanu-l-Mashaikh Nizamu-l-Auliya — may God sanctify his resting-place.
