### [9.2.2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.jahangir.tuzuk-i-jahangiri~en-rogers-beveridge.9.2.2)

At this time it became known that Kaukab, son of Qamar Khan, had become intimate with a Sanyasi, and by degrees his words, which were all blasphemous and impious, made an impression on that foolish fellow. He had made 'Abdu-l-Latīf, son of Naqīb Khan, and Sharif, his cousins, partners in that error. When this affair was discovered, with only a slight frightening they revealed certain circumstances with regard to themselves, the relation of which would be extremely disgusting. Considering their punishment advisable, I imprisoned Kaukab and Sharif after giving them a whipping, and ordered 'Abdu-l-Latīf a hundred lashes in my presence. This special chastisement (was given) for the purpose of carrying out the Divine law in order that other ignorant persons might not be disposed towards the same actions. On Monday, the 24th, Mu'azzam Khan was despatched to Delhi to punish the rebels and disaffected of that neighbourhood. Two thousand rupees were given to Shaja'at Khan Dakhanī. I had ordered Shaikh Husain Darshanī to proceed with certain firmans to Bengal and presents to each of the Amirs of that Subah. I now gave him his orders and despatched him. With an eye on his actions and his approved services, I promoted Islam Khan to the rank of 5,000 personal and horse, and bestowed on him a special dress of honour.
