Prohibition of Ghasb. — The officers of the khálisa lands and the jágírdárs are not to take the lands of the ráiyats by force, and cultivate them on their own account. The collectors of the khalisa lands and the jagirdars are not without permission to form connexions with the people in their districts. 7. Building of hospitals and appointment of physicians to attend the sick. — Hospitals were to be built in large cities, and doctors were to be appointed to attend the sick. The expenses were to be paid from the royal treasury. 8. Prohibition of the slaughter of animals on certain days. — In imitation of my honoured father, I directed that every year from the 18th of Rabi’u-l awwal, my birthday, no animals should be slaughtered for a number of days corresponding to the years of my age. In every week, also, two days were to be exempted from slaughter : Thursday, the day of my accession, and Sunday, the birthday of my father. 9. Respect paid to the Sunday. — He (my father) used to hold Sunday blessed, and to pay it great respect, because it is dedicated to the Great Luminary, and because it is the day on which the Creation was begun. Throughout my dominions this was to be one of the days on which killing animals is interdicted. - [Previous: 3.2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.jahangir.tuzuk-i-jahangiri~en-elliot-2.3.2) - [Next: 3.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.jahangir.tuzuk-i-jahangiri~en-elliot-2.3.4) - [Up: 3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.jahangir.tuzuk-i-jahangiri~en-elliot-2.3) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.jahangir.tuzuk-i-jahangiri~en-elliot-2.3.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.jahangir.tuzuk-i-jahangiri~en-elliot-2.3.3) · Pramāṇa
