There ensued many victories and defeats, some of which shall be mentioned in this Epitome. In the country of Samarkand and Bokhara, endless wars and contests arose between the three princes, Baisanghar Mirzá and Sultán Ali Mirzá (the sons of Mahmud Kurkán, son of Sultán Abu Said Kurkán) and Sháhi Beg Khán, son of Sháh Budágh Sultán, son of Abulkhair Khán, than whom, in his lifetime, there was no more exalted chief on the throne of the Juji. Of these wars and disputes I will speak hereafter. In Khorásán, Sultán Husain Mirzá was at the height of his power and magnificence. From time to time the dust of dissension rose up between the father and his sons, but this the Mirzá, with his wisdom and sagacity, soon caused to subside. In Irák, after the death of Sultán Yakub, son of Uzun Hasan, the Sultáns (his sons) by reason of their youth, were unable to direct the affairs of the State, and Sháh Ismail (who had made his violence felt in the world) taking advantage of the situation, invaded the country, entirely exterminated the rest of those Sultáns, and upset all the affairs of the state and of religion. - [Previous: 104.2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.kashmir.tarikh-i-rashidi~en-ross.104.2) - [Next: 104.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.kashmir.tarikh-i-rashidi~en-ross.104.4) - [Up: 104](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.kashmir.tarikh-i-rashidi~en-ross.104) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.kashmir.tarikh-i-rashidi~en-ross.104.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.kashmir.tarikh-i-rashidi~en-ross.104.3) · Pramāṇa
