Rulers bearing the title of Khwarazm Shah are mentioned upwards of a century and a half previous to the dynasty now under notice, which I must briefly refer to. Our author himself adverts \[page 38\] to ’Abd-ullah, son of Askan, Khwarazm Shah, as early as 332 H.; and in the present Section farther on \[page 233\] again refers to them. In 386 H., mention is made of another ’Abd-ullah, styled Khwarazm Shah, who in that year was made prisoner by the forces of Mamun, son of Muhammad, Lord of Jurjaniah of Khwarazm. ’Abd-ullah was taken in fetters to Jurjaniah, and subsequently beheaded; and the whole of Khwarazm passed under the rule of Mamun, son of Muhammad. The territories of Khwarazm and Jurjaniah, had, for a considerable time, been in the possession of this family, who are styled Farighuni, subordinate to the Samani sovereigns. In 387 H., the same year in which Nuh, son of Mansur, Samani, Amir Sabuk-Tigin, and Fakhr-ud-Daulah, Dilami, died, Mamun, Farighuni, died also, and was succeeded by his son, Abu ’Ali, who was married to a sister of Mahmud of Ghaznin. ’Ali died in 390 H., and was succeeded by his brother, Abu-l-’Abbas-i-Mamun \[son of Mamun\]. He despatched an envoy to Mahmud, asking the latter’s consent to his \[Abu-l-’Abbas\] espousing his brother’s widow, the sister of Mahmud, which request was acquiesced in. - [Previous: 118](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.118) - [Next: 119.2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.119.2) - [Up: 119](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.119) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.119.1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.119.1) · Pramāṇa
