Khazaʾin al-futuh 7: The conquest of Gujarát, Somnát, Nahrwála, and Kambáy.

7

The Sultán despatched Ulugh Khán to Ma'bar and Gujarát for the destruction of the idol-temple of Somnát, on the 20th of Jumáda-l awwal, 698 H. (1300 A.D.) He destroyed all the idols and temples of Somnát, "but sent one idol, the biggest of all the idols, to the court of his Godlike Majesty, and in that ancient stronghold of idolatry the summons to prayers was pronounced so loud, that they heard it in Misr and Madáin." He conquered also the city of Nahrwála and the city of Khambáíh, and other cities on that sea-shore.
