It is extraordinary that such accomplishments as his should be combined with wrestling.\[1168\] HISTORICAL NARRATIVE RESUMED. (\_a. Burial of Sl. Ḥusain Mīrzā.\_) At the time Sl. Ḥusain Mīrzā took his departure from the world, there were present of the Mīrzās only Badī'u'z-zamān Mīrzā and Muz̤affar-i-ḥusain Mīrzā. The latter had been his father's favourite son; his leading beg was Muḥammad Barandūq \_Barlās\_; his mother Khadīja Begīm had been the Mīrzā's most influential wife; and to him the Mīrzā's people had gathered. \[Sidenote: Fol. 183.\] For these reasons Badī\`u'z-zamān Mīrzā had anxieties and thought of not coming,\[1169\] but Muz̤affar-i-ḥusain Mīrzā and Muḥammad Barandūq Beg themselves rode out, dispelled his fears and brought him in. Sl. Ḥusain Mīrzā was carried into Herī and there buried in his own College with royal rites and ceremonies. (\_b. A dual succession.\_) - [Previous: 911.9.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-beveridge.911.9.4) - [Next: 911.9.6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-beveridge.911.9.6) - [Up: 911.9](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-beveridge.911.9) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-beveridge.911.9.5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-beveridge.911.9.5) · Pramāṇa
