CI. Khān-zāda Begam Tirmizī. Of the family of the Khāns of Termiz, wife of Sultān Ahmad Mīrzā Mīrān-shāhī. She was a bride when Bābar was five, i.e., in 893 H. (1488) but, according to Turkī custom, was still veiled. Sultān Ahmad desired Bābar to pluck off the veil and run away, a little ceremony which it was supposed would bring him good luck when his time for marriage should come.
