The Rashīdī History 204.4

204.4

Mansur Khan sent some persons to him, saying that no Makhdumzada had ever come to those comers [of the earth], Turfan and Chdlish, which were the residence of the disciples of his [spiritual] fathers; these people and this country had never been blessed by a visit from the Khwaja. As it would be difficult for his friends in those quarters to go to him, all their blessings would be upon him if he would come and honour them. The Khwaja accepted this invitation of Mansur Khdn, and set out for Turfdn, where he remained nearly three years, and brought blessings to those who associated with him. On the Khan's return from the Badakhshdn campaign, Khwdja Nura left Turfdn and stayed in Kdshghar to attend my uncle, who, as mentioned above, had become subject to fits of vomiting. Having again restored my uncle to perfect health, he proceeded to Yarkand. Here Khwdja Muhammad Yusuf, as has been related above, did not come out to greet him in the prescribed manner, from which circumstance a dispute arose, which terminated as already described. After this affair he went to Ydngi-Hisdr, in which place the Khdn also spent the winter, in order to wait upon his Holiness . . . . The Khwdja told me that after the death of Abdur Rahmdn Jdmi, he found under his pillow some rough copies, one of which he gave written out, to me; and I have copied it here. He gave me these passages in Ydngi-Hisdr in the year 937 [1530-31].
