79.4.7

In this year the Emperor sent the prince Daniyal with Shaikh Faizi, who was his teacher, and Shaikh Jamal Bakhtyar, and a number of courtiers to Ajmir. And he presented a donation of 6,020 rupees to the faqirs of that monastery. In this year Rajah Todar Mal and the other imperial Amirs passed the rainy season in Hajipur. (P. 289.) And Ma'sum Khan Farankhudi, who was in a discontented state of mind went to Jounpur without the permission of the Amirs, and broke out into rebellion. The Emperor sent Peshrou Khan, known as Mihtar Sa'adat, the head of the chamberlain department (daroghah-e-farashkhanah), with a farman to appease him, and the government of Jounpur was given to Tarsun Khan, and that of Oudh to Ma'sum Khan Farankhudi. He uttering some wild speeches like a crazy man, and considering Oudh an out-of-the-way corner of the Empire, went there and began to prepare for war. Meanwhile Mihtar Sa'adat came to Court, and again recounted how that Mulla Muhammad Yazdi had issued a fatwa authorizing rebellion and insurrection. This was the cause of Mulla Muhammad Yazdi and Mir Mu'izz-ul-mulk being sent for, as has been narrated.
