# Siyar al-mutaʾakhkhirin 17.3.3

A Translation of the Seir Mutaqherin (Haji Mustafa) 17.3.3

- **Language:** English

### [17.3.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.later.siyar-al-mutaakhkhirin~en-mustafa.17.3.3)

Meanwhile the satellites having broke into the man's house, and into the adjoining ones, soon found Hossein-coly-qhan, whom they brought to their master. That cruel, relentless, remorseless monster, no sooner cast his eyes upon him, than he ordered his being hacked to pieces; and he was hacked to pieces accordingly. It was in this manner that unfortunate man drank up his cup of martyrdom. His brother, Haider-aaly-qhan, who was blind, being brought in the same manner, was made a partaker of his brother's fate. But as he was an ancient warrior and a valorous man, instead of descending to supplications and tears, as had done his brother, he gave his murderer foul language, and loaded him with taunting reproaches, in which he severely reflected on his person, his mother, and his family. Thou worthless fellow! said he, it is thus that thou murderest brave men? He was not suffered to say more, but was instantly cut down.
