78.6.4

In this year, or in the year preceding which is perhaps more correct, the Emperor sent to the town of Andan-Karnāl for Shaikh ‘Abd-ul-nabī, the traditionist, grandson of Shaikh ‘Abd-ul-Qudūs of Gangōh, who is one of the greatest Shaikhs of Hind, and made him Chief Çadr; in order that in conjunction with Muẓaffar Khān, he might pass pishkash. Soon after he acquired such absolute powers, that he conferred on deserving people whole worlds of subsistence allowances, lands, and pensions, so much so that if the bounty of all the former kings of Hind were thrown into one scale, and the liberality of this age into the other, yet this would p with a large force Mirza Sulaiman pursued him. But when Mirza Muhammad Hakim reached the banks of the Nilab he wrote letters to the Court, and Mirza Sulaiman leaving Qambar, one of his followers, with a body of men at Jallalabad, went from Peshawar to Kabul. In accordance with a command received all the Amirs of the Panjab (such as Muhammad Quli Khan Birlas, and Atkah Khan, with the whole Atkah-clan, and Mahdi Qasim Khan, and Kamal Khan Gak’har) joined Mirza Muhammad Hakim, and having given Qambar with 150 or 200 persons (who were holding Jalalabad) as prey to the sword, sent Qambar’s head, together with news of the victory, to Paiq Qaqshal at Kabul. Mirza Sulaiman turned the face of flight towards Badakhshan.
