(_Author's note on Sl. Mas`ūd Mīrzā._) He was the son of Sūyūrghatmīsh Mīrzā, son of Shāhrukh Mīrzā, (son of Tīmūr), and was known as Sl. Mas`ūd _Kābulī_ because the government and administration of Kābul and Zābul were then dependent on him (deposed 843 AH.-1440 AD.) (_Author's note to 910 AH._) That year, with the wish to enter Hindūstān, Khaibar had been crossed and Parashāwūr (_sic_) had been reached, when Bāqī _Chaghānīānī_ insisted on a move against Lower Bangash _i.e._ Kohāt, a mass of Afghāns were raided and scraped clean (_qīrīb_), the Bannū plain was raided and plundered, and return was made through Dūkī (Dūgī).
