The reason for this was that Mirza Khan (the son of Sultan Mahmud Mirza, son of Abu Said Mirza) had died in Badakhshan, as has been related, and left behind him a child named Sulaiman. Babar Padishah took this boy and kept him near himself, placing his own distinguished son, Humayun, on the throne of Badakhshan, where he reigned from 926 to 935. At the time when Babar Padishah had subdued Hindustan and overthrown his enemies, two of his sons had become youths — Humayun Mirza and Kamran Mirza. Leaving the latter in Kandahar, he sent for Humayun in order that he might have one of his sons \[continually\] by him, so that if he were to die suddenly, there would be a successor near at hand. For these reasons he recalled Humayun Mirza into Hindustan. But the people of Badakhshan made the following representation to Humayun Mirza: "Badakhshan borders on the \[territory of the\] Uzbeg, who cherish in their hearts an ancient hatred for Badakhshan. \[If they attack Badakhshan\] our Amirs will be unable to check them." To this Humayun Mirza made reply: "All that you say is true, still I am unable to deviate from my father's commands. But I will do my best to send one of my brothers to you, as soon as possible." Having thus reassured the people, he started for Hindustan. - [Previous: 200](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.kashmir.tarikh-i-rashidi~en-ross.200) - [Next: 201.2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.kashmir.tarikh-i-rashidi~en-ross.201.2) - [Up: 201](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.kashmir.tarikh-i-rashidi~en-ross.201) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.kashmir.tarikh-i-rashidi~en-ross.201.1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.kashmir.tarikh-i-rashidi~en-ross.201.1) · Pramāṇa
