Four daughters were by Payānda-sulṯān Begīm. Āq Begīm, the oldest, was sent out to Muḥammad Qāsim _Arlāt_, a grandson of Bega Begīm the younger sister of Bābur Mīrzā;[1031] there was one daughter (_bīr gīna qīz_), known as Qarā-gūz (Dark-eyed) Begīm, whom Nāṣir Mīrzā (_Mīrān-shāhī_) took. Kīchīk Begīm was the second; for her Sl. Mas`ūd Mīrzā had great desire but, try as he would, Payānda-sulṯān Begīm, having an aversion for him, would not give her to him;[1032] she sent Kīchīk Begīm out afterwards to Mullā Khwāja of the line of Sayyid Ātā.[1033] Her third and fourth daughters Bega Begīm and Āghā Begīm, she gave to Bābur Mīrzā and Murād Mīrzā the sons of her younger sister, Rābī`a-sulṯān Begīm.[1034] Two other daughters of the Mīrzā were by Mīnglī Bībī Āghācha. They gave the elder one, Bairam-sulṯān Begīm to Sayyid `Abdu'l-lāh, one of the sayyids of Andikhūd who was a grandson of Bāī-qarā Mīrzā[1035] through a daughter. A son of this marriage, Sayyid Barka[1036] was in my service when Samarkand was taken (917 AH.-1511 AD.); he went to Aūrganj later and there made claim to rule; the Red-heads[1037] killed him in Astarābād. Mīnglī Bībī's second daughter was Fāṯima-sulṯān Begīm; her they gave to Yādgār(-i-farrukh) Mīrzā of Tīmūr Beg's line.[1038]
