He repaired the old palaces and fortifications, built others, and encouraged commerce. Men of genius and learning were invited to his court: a code of laws for the civil government were framed, founded upon the Koran, and consistent with the ancient usages of the Dehly monarchy. Mullik Fukhr-ood-Deen Joona, the King's eldest son, was declared heir-apparent, with the title of Aluf Khan, and the royal ensigns were conferred on him. The King's other four sons were, Beiram, Zuffur, Mahmood, and Noosrut. Beiram Ayebe, who had so effectually aided the King with the army from Mooltan, and whom he now adopted as a brother, received the title of Kishloo Khan, and was appointed his lieutenant over the provinces on the Indus. Mullik Assud-ood-Deen, one of the King's nephews, was appointed Barbik, and Mullik Baha-ood-Deen, another nephew, was appointed Aariz-ool-Moomalik, with the province of Samana for his support. Mullik Shady, another nephew, who was also the King's son-in-law, was made Vizier. Mullik Boorhan-ood- Deen, received the government of Dewgur, and his adopted son, Tartar Khan, the government of Zuffurabad. - [Previous: 39.2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tarikh-i-firishta~en-briggs.39.2) - [Next: 39.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tarikh-i-firishta~en-briggs.39.4) - [Up: 39](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tarikh-i-firishta~en-briggs.39) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tarikh-i-firishta~en-briggs.39.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tarikh-i-firishta~en-briggs.39.3) · Pramāṇa
