The Book of Akbar 125.3

125.3

For example, once a caravan from China (Khita) had come to the hill-country east of Andijan. There was a heavy snow-storm and the caravan was overwhelmed so that only two persons escaped. When this just man heard of the catastrophe, in spite of his necessities at the time, he did not touch any of the goods but appointed trustworthy persons and attached the property until the heirs were collected from their native country to receive the goods, the rights of each being ascertained. This king was always of a dervish mind and inclined to the society of religious persons and asked for wisdom at the doors of the hearts of the God-knowing. Especially the holy Nasiru-d-dīn Khwaja ‘Abdu-l-lah, known by the name of Khwaja Ahrar.
