Fifth expedition into Hindūstān.\_) (\_Nov. 17th\_) On Friday the 1st of the month of Ṣafar at the \[Sidenote: Ḥaidarābād MS. Fol. 251b.\] date 932, the Sun being in the Sign of the Archer, we set out for Hindūstān, crossed the small rise of Yak-langa, and dismounted in the meadow to the west of the water of Dih-i-ya\`qūb.\[1566\] \`Abdu'l-malūk the armourer came into this camp; he had gone seven or eight months earlier as my envoy to Sulṯān Sa\`īd Khān (in Kāshghar), and now brought one of the Khān's men, styled Yāngī Beg (new beg) Kūkūldāsh who conveyed letters, and small presents, and verbal messages\[1567\] from the Khānīms and the Khān.\[1568\] (\_Nov. 18th to 21st\_) After staying two days in that camp for the convenience of the army,\[1569\] we marched on, halted one night,\[1570\] and next dismounted at Bādām-chashma. There we ate a confection (\_ma\`jūn\_). (\_Nov. 22nd\_) On Wednesday (Ṣafar 6th), when we had dismounted at Bārīk-āb, the younger brethren of Nūr Beg—he himself remaining in Hindūstān—brought gold \_ashrafīs\_ and \_tankas\_\[1571\] to the value of 20,000 \_shāhrukhīs\_, sent from the Lāhor revenues by Khwāja Ḥusain. The greater part of these moneys was despatched by Mullā Aḥmad, one of the chief men of Balkh, for the benefit of Balkh.\[1572\] (\_Nov. 24th\_) On Friday the 8th of the month (Ṣafar), after \[Sidenote: Fol. 252.\] dismounting at Gandamak, I had a violent discharge;\[1573\] by God's mercy, it passed off easily. - [Previous: 931](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-beveridge.931) - [Next: 932.1.2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-beveridge.932.1.2) - [Up: 932.1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-beveridge.932.1) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-beveridge.932.1.1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-beveridge.932.1.1) · Pramāṇa
