The Rashīdī History 187.4

187.4

There are many other cities in Moghulistan, in which traces remain of very fine buildings. In some places they still stand intact. In [the district of] Jud there are traces of an important town, and remains of minarets, domes, and schools. Since the name of that town is not known, the Moghuls call it 'Minara.' In the same place is also a dome made of stone, into which the following inscription has been cut, in the Naskhi writing: "This is the tomb of [titles omitted] Imam Muhammad Fakih Bala Sakuni [Arabic invocation], who died in the year 711. Written by Khwaja Omar Haddvi." Jud is a district [mauza] of Moghulistan, of a month's journey in length. In it there are many cities like this one.
