Firishta's History (Gulshan-i Ibrāhīmī) 23.1.1

23.1.1

Historians relate that about the time when Fureedoon subdued Zohak Marry, two brothers descended from the latter (Soory and Sam) were in the service of the former prince. Having incurred his displeasure, they fled with a party of their friends to Nehawund, where they took up their abodes and possessed themselves of a small territory. Soory became the chief of a tribe, and Sam was his general. Soory gave his daughter in marriage to his nephew Shoojaa, the son of Sam. Shoojaa, after his father's decease, succeeded him as general. But his enemies traduced him to his uncle, who, inflamed with jealousy and hatred, wished to take away his daughter from him. Shoojaa discovering this, fled in the night with ten horsemen and a few camels laden with his effects accompanied by his wife and children, to the mountains of Ghoor, where he built a castle, and called it Zoomyandesh. Here he was gradually joined by many of his friends and long maintained his post against Fureedoon, but was eventually obliged to submit, and to pay him tribute.
