During the lifetime of Malik Taj-ud-Din, his father, he became greatly distinguished, and was famous for his valour, sagacity, activity, and magnanimity. He ruled over the territory of Nimroz for a considerable time during the lifetime of his father; and, when his father died, the sovereignty passed to him. Both Bahram himself and two other brothers were borne by a Turkish slave-girl; and, previous to his time, all the sovereigns and nobles, according to ancient custom, allowed their hair to hang loosely, and used to wear conical caps on their heads, with two or three fillets wound round them, with a black fillet over the others; but, when Malik Yamin-ud-Din, Bahram Shah, came to the throne, his mother being of the Turkish race, he assumed the cap of sable, and camlet garments, and curling ringlets like the Turks; and both his brothers, one, Malik Shihab-ud-Din, 'Ali, and the other, Malik Shah, likewise adopted similar costume. - [Previous: 99](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.99) - [Next: 100.2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.100.2) - [Up: 100](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.100) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.100.1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.100.1) · Pramāṇa
