Kamran. When the army of fortune came near the Mirza, he withdrew to the defiles of ‘Aligar and ‘Alishang. The officers followed him and he, leaving that country, sought protection with the Afghan tribes of Khalil and Mahmand. The vagabonds who had gathered round him, were again dispersed. The victorious troops turned back at the village of Ghazu-i-sahidan. Now that His Majesty’s mind had obtained respite from the wickedness of M. Kamran, he, in order to increase the sympathy of M. Sulaiman and to do him yet more honour, proposed a marriage to him. Khw. Jalalu-d-din Mahmud and the chaste Bibi Fatima were sent to ask for the hand of Khanam, the daughter of M. Sulaiman, for when this should be arranged, His Majesty’s mind would be at rest as regarded Badakhshan and M. Sulaiman would be conciliated. M. ‘Askari was also sent with Jalalu-d-din to be made over to M. Sulaiman. And an order was issued to M. Sulaiman that he should send on M. ‘Askari to the Hijaz by way of Balkh. M. Sulaiman recognized the coming of the envoys as a distinction and neglected nothing that could do them honour. In obedience to the royal order, he sent off M. ‘Askari towards Balkh. The Mirza could not, from shame and repentance, settle there but set off on his long journey, taking with him the travelling-companion of impatience. The measure of his days became full between Syria and Mecca in the year 965. M. Sulaiman agreed that the marriage with His Majesty Jahanbani should take place on the arrival of the begams (of Humayun’s court) and the nobles, and on his daughter’s becoming older: and he respectfully dismissed the embassy with letters full of apology and submission. - [Previous: 263](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.akbar.akbarnama~en-beveridge.263) - [Next: 265](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.akbar.akbarnama~en-beveridge.265) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.akbar.akbarnama~en-beveridge.264](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.akbar.akbarnama~en-beveridge.264) · Pramāṇa
