In this year also took place the death of Shah Abu-l-Ma‘ali in Kabul. The circumstances are as follows. After the tragic end of the Begum, the mother of Mirza Muhammad Hakim, Muhammad Qasim Kohbar fled to Mirza Sulaiman in Badakhshan. Then the Mirza, with his wife, who is known as Wali Na'mat, brought a large force against Shah Abu-l-Ma'ali, who, in his turn taking with him Mirza Muhammad Hakim, kindled the flames of war on the banks of the river Ghorband. The right wing of the Kabulees was repulsed by the left wing of the Badakhshees, and Shah Abu-l-Ma‘ali, leaving Mirza Muhammad Hakim to oppose Sulaiman Mirza, (P. 63) hastened to the support of his broken line. But while he was gone Mirza Muhammad Hakim, with the concurrence of his followers, crossed the river and went over to Mirza Sulaiman. Then Abu-l-Ma‘ali, having now no further power of resistance, took to flight. Near the village of Jarikaran he fell into the hands of Sulaiman Mirza’s men, who has gone in pursuit of him, and was made prisoner. They brought him to Sulaiman Mirza at Kabul. Sulaiman Mirza sent him at once bound, and with his hands tied behind his neck, to Muhammad Hakim Mirza, who ordered him to be strangled. This event took place on the evening of the 17th of the blessed month of Ramzan in the year nine hundred and seventy (970). - [Previous: 78.4.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.muntakhab-al-tawarikh~en-ranking-lowe-haig.78.4.3) - [Next: 78.4.5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.muntakhab-al-tawarikh~en-ranking-lowe-haig.78.4.5) - [Up: 78.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.muntakhab-al-tawarikh~en-ranking-lowe-haig.78.4) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.muntakhab-al-tawarikh~en-ranking-lowe-haig.78.4.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.muntakhab-al-tawarikh~en-ranking-lowe-haig.78.4.4) · Pramāṇa
