When he \[Rashid Sultan\], in alliance with the Uzbeg Shaiban, routed the Uzbeg Kazak, Baush Sultan, because of his position as son-in-law, and relying on this \[for safety\], came forward to meet Rashid Sultan, who threatened to put him to death if he did not at once divorce Badi-ul-Jamal Khanim. Having taken her from this chief, who was worthy of the alliance, he gave her to Muhammadi, whose ancestors had never attained to a dignity nearly so great. This act was a complete breach of propriety: for a peasant was treated as of equal rank with a prince. But Rashid Sultan disregarded everything, and brought disgrace upon his own house. He could not distinguish a man endowed with reason, from a brute beast. Still the most infamous thing of all, was taking her from a worthy man and giving her to an unworthy one. Such a deed is quite unheard of. - [Previous: 235.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.kashmir.tarikh-i-rashidi~en-ross.235.3) - [Next: 235.5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.kashmir.tarikh-i-rashidi~en-ross.235.5) - [Up: 235](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.kashmir.tarikh-i-rashidi~en-ross.235) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.kashmir.tarikh-i-rashidi~en-ross.235.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.kashmir.tarikh-i-rashidi~en-ross.235.4) · Pramāṇa
