The Memoirs of Jahāngīr (Jahāngīrnāma) 21.3.6

21.3.6

On Thursday, the 24th, Baqir K., having come from Multan, had the good fortune to pay his respects. In the preceding pages it has been recorded that Allah-dad, s. Jalala Tariki, had deserted from the victorious army and taken the road to ruin. He now repented, and through Baqir K. petitioned I‘timadu-d-daula for pardon. At the latter’s request I ordered that if he repented of what he had done, and turned his face in hope towards the Court, his crimes would be forgiven. On this day Baqir K. brought him to Court, and at the intercession of I‘timadu-d-daula, the traces of disgrace and the dust of sorrow were washed off his forehead with the pure water of pardon. Sangram, Zamindar of Jammu, was honoured with the title of Raja and the mansab of 1,000 personal and 500 horse, and was exalted with the gift of an elephant and a dress of honour. Ghairat K., faujdar of the Du-ab, was promoted to the mansab of 800 personal and 500 horse. Khwaja Qasim received the rank of 700 and 250 horse, and Taham-tan Beg, s. Qasim Koka, received that of 500 personal and 300 horse. I gave Khan ‘Alam a private elephant with trappings. From this stage, having given Baqir K. the mansab of 1,500 personal and 500 horse, I dismissed him again to his Subadarship. On Monday, the 28th, I pitched in the pargana of Karohl, which is on the bank of the Bihat (Jhelam).
