The Memoirs of Jahāngīr (Jahāngīrnāma) 10.2.10

10.2.10

From the last day of Zi-l hijja till the 9th Muharram, in consequence of bad weather, I remained in the garden of Mirza Kamran. I attributed the success gained in this expedition to Shaikh Farid, and I dignified him with the title of Murtaza Khan. To strengthen and confirm my rule, I directed that a double row of stakes should be set up from the garden to the city, and that the rebel awahnahs and others who had taken part in this revolt, should be impaled thereon, and thus receive their deserts in this most excruciating punishment. The land-holders between the Chinab and Behat who had proved their loyalty, I rewarded by giving to each one of them some lands as madad-ma'ash. * *
