Yunas Khan was the son of Sultan Takish; and, when Sultan Takish subdued the territory of 'Irak, and wrested it out of the hands of the Ata-bak, Abu-Bikr, the son of the Ata-bak, Muhammad, and a second time caused its deliverance from Sultan Tughril, he conferred it upon his son, Yunas Khan.
He was a monarch of good disposition, and used to live on good terms among his people, and brought ’Irak under his subjection. He began to enter into contention with the troops of the Court of the Khalifah, and that untoward circumstance became a source of misfortune to the sovereignty of his father, and to their dynasty.
He reigned for a considerable time over ’Irak, and died.
