Among the occurrences of this year was the martyrdom of M. Shah, brother of M. Ulugh Beg. He was coming from Ushtar Karam, which was in his fief, with the intention of paying his respects, but when he reached the pass of Minar, Shah Muhammad, brother of Haji Muhammad, in revenge for M. Muhammad Sultan's having killed Koki, the paternal uncle of Haji Muhammad in India, lay in ambush and shot him with an arrow at the top of the pass, and raised the Mirza on that summit to the glorious degree of a martyr.
