Beveridge) 936.4.6 - **Language:** English ### [936.4.6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-beveridge.936.4.6) The body was laid in the Garden-of-rest (\_Ārām-bāgh\_) which is opposite to where the Tāj-i-maḥāll now stands. Khwāja Muḥammad \`Alī \_\`asas\_\[2739\] was made the guardian of the tomb, and many well-voiced readers and reciters were appointed to conduct the five daily Prayers and to offer supplication for the soul of the dead. The revenues of Sīkrī and 5 \_laks\_ from Bīāna were set aside for the endowment of the tomb, and Māhīm Begīm, during the two and a half years of her remaining life, sent twice daily from her own estate, an allowance of food towards the support of its attendants. In accordance with the directions of his will, Bābur's body was to be conveyed to Kābul and there to be laid in the garden of his choice, in a grave open to the sky, with no building over it, no need of a door-keeper. - [Previous: 936.4.5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-beveridge.936.4.5) - [Next: 936.4.7](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-beveridge.936.4.7) - [Up: 936.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-beveridge.936.4) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-beveridge.936.4.6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-beveridge.936.4.6) · Pramāṇa
