This correspondence being detected, the Hajy suffered death. Hoomayoon again marched against Kamran Mirza; but was surprised in his camp near Khybur, in a night attack, on the 21st of Zeekaad 958, on which occasion Hindal Mirza lost his life. Kamran gained little advantage by this accident; for being subsequently defeated, he was obliged to seek shelter among the Afghans. After this success, Hoomayoon returned to Kabul, and out of affection to the memory of Hindal Mirza, who had expiated his former disobedience by his blood, he gave the daughter of that Prince, Ruzeea Sooltana, to his son Akbur in marriage. He conferred on them at the same time all the wealth of Hindal, and appointed Akbur to the command of his uncle's troops, and to the government of Ghizny. A few months after these events, the Afghans again rose in favour of Kamran Mirza; but Hoomayoon invaded their country, and laid it waste with fire and sword, till they abandoned Kamran's cause, and expelled him from their country. Kamran, now flying to Hindoostan, was induced to solicit an asylum with Sulim Shah Soor; but meeting with a cold reception there, he departed from the court of Dehly, and sought protection from the Raja of Nagrakote; being expelled thence also, he joined Sooltan Adam Gukkur in the Punjab. - [Previous: 62.3.2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tarikh-i-firishta~en-briggs.62.3.2) - [Next: 62.3.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tarikh-i-firishta~en-briggs.62.3.4) - [Up: 62.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tarikh-i-firishta~en-briggs.62.3) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tarikh-i-firishta~en-briggs.62.3.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tarikh-i-firishta~en-briggs.62.3.3) · Pramāṇa
