Maḥmūd and their descendants. Many write it Ghaznīn. It is said also to have been the seat of government of Shihābu'd-dīn \_Ghūrī\_,\[824\] styled Mu\`iz̤z̤u'd-dīn in the \_T̤abaqāt-i-nāṣirī\_ and also some of the histories of Hind. Ghaznī is known also as \_Zābulistān\_; it belongs to the Third climate. Some hold that Qandahār is a part of it. It lies 14 \_yīghāch\_ (south-) west of Kābul; those leaving it at dawn, may reach Kābul between the Two Prayers (\_i.e.\_ in the afternoon); whereas the 13 \_yīghāch\_ between Adīnapūr and Kābul can never be done in one day, because of the difficulties of the road. - [Previous: 910.6.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-beveridge.910.6.3) - [Next: 910.6.5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-beveridge.910.6.5) - [Up: 910.6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-beveridge.910.6) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-beveridge.910.6.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-beveridge.910.6.4) · Pramāṇa
