The Memoirs of Jahāngīr (Jahāngīrnāma) 8.1.8

8.1.8

Five thousand rupees more of the money from my weighing were entrusted for the construction of a bridge at Baba Hasan Abdal and the building that is there to Abu-l-wafa, son of Hakim Abu-l-fath, in order that he might exert himself and put the bridge and the aforesaid building in perfect order. On Saturday, the 13th, when four gharis of day were left, the moon began to be eclipsed. By degrees the whole of its body was obscured, and it continued till five gharis of night had passed. In order to avert the bad omen of this I had myself weighed against gold, silver, cloth, and grain, and gave away in alms all kinds of animals, such as elephants, horses, etc., the cost of all of which was 15,000 rupees. I ordered them to be distributed among the deserving and the poor. On the 25th, at the request of her father, I took the daughter of Ram Chand Bandilah into my service (i.e. married her). I gave an elephant to Mir Fazil, nephew of Mir Sharif, who had been appointed to the faujdarship of Qabulah and those regions. 'Inayat-ullah was dignified with the title of 'Inayat Khan. On Wednesday, the 1st Zi-l-qa'da, Bihari Chand was granted the rank of 500 personal and 300 horse. A khapwa (dagger), adorned with jewels, was given to my son Baba Khurram.
