The Shah of Iran, after having brought so many disasters and calamities upon Hindustan, presented to the Emperor of that country seven horses of 'Irak, several trays of jewels and cloths, instilled into him some precepts useful to Emperors, granted khil'ats to the ministers of the throne, and, having left Dehli on the 7th of Safar, returned to his own country. He proceeded through the territory of Sind, and having taken a large contribution from its chief, who was of the tribe of Bhatti, went to Kandahar. It is said that after the departure of Nadir Shah, the chiefs and Rajas of all parts of Hindustan sent large sums of money to Muhammad Shah, together with horses, elephants and other property of various kinds.
