He kept his retainers well. He it was brought about the blinding of Sl. Mas\`ūd Mīrzā and the murder of Bāī-sunghar Mīrzā. He had an ill-word for every-one and was an evil-tongued, foul-mouthed, self-pleasing and dull-witted mannikin. He approved of no-one but himself. When I went from the Qūndūz country to near Dūshī (910 AH.-1503 AD.), separated Khusrau Shāh from his following and dismissed him, this person (\_i.e.\_, Walī) had come to Andar-āb and Sīr-āb, also in fear of the Aūzbegs. The Aīmāqs of those parts beat and robbed him\[263\] then, having let me know, came on to Kābul. Walī went to Shaibānī Khān who had his head struck off in the town of Samarkand. Shaikh \`Abdu'l-lāh \_Barlās\_\[264\] was another; he had to wife one of the daughters of Shāh Sulṯān Muḥammad (\_Badakhshī\_) \_i.e.\_, the maternal aunt of Abā-bikr Mīrzā (\_Mīrān-shāhī\_) and of Sl. Maḥmūd Khān. He wore his tunic narrow and \_pur shaqq\_\[265\]; he was a kindly well-bred man. - [Previous: 900.2.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-beveridge.900.2.4) - [Next: 900.2.6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-beveridge.900.2.6) - [Up: 900.2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-beveridge.900.2) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-beveridge.900.2.5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-beveridge.900.2.5) · Pramāṇa
