116

Malik-us-Salih was his father’s heir, and, when Malik-ul-Kamil departed this life, Malik-us-Salih ascended the throne of Misr, and took possession of the dominions of his father and his grandfather.
According to the best of his capability, he provided for and advanced the sons of his uncles, and his own brothers, and took measures for the safety of his dominions; but his life was a brief one, and, after a short time, he died, leaving young children behind him.
Trustworthy persons have related, that, during the calamities and troubles which happened in Iran, when the irruption of Chingiz Khan took place, a body of Turks of Khwarazm, and [several] nobles of the Khwarazm-Shahi dynasty, retiring before the infidels of Chin, after the defeat of Sultan Jalal-ud-Din, Mang-barni, son of Muhammad, Khwarazm Shah, reached the territories of Sham and Misr, and possessed themselves of the dominions of the ’Adili dynasty. Some they slew, some passed away, and some remained. May the Almighty have mercy upon the whole of them!
