In the year 612 H., Sultan Muhammad advanced from Mawar-un-Nahr and came to Ghaznin. and suddenly and unexpectedly possessed himself of the Ghaznin territories likewise. Sultan Taj-ud-Din, Yal-duz, retired towards Hindustan by the way of Sang-i-Surakh; and the countries of Ghaznin, Zawulistan, and Kabul, as far as the banks of the Sind, came under the jurisdiction of the Khwarazmi nobles. The Khan-salar \[the Sewer of the imperial household\], Kuriz, was stationed at Ghaznin: and the countries of Ghur, Ghaznin, the Bilad-i-Dawar \[Zamin-i-Dawar\], Jarum, and the throne of the two Sultans, Ghiyas-ud-Din, and Mu’izz-ud-Din, sons of Muhammad-i-Sam, was conferred, by the Sultan, upon his eldest son, Sultan Jalal-ud-Din, Mang-barni, after which he himself returned to Mawar-un-Nahr. In the year 615 H., he pushed on towards Turkistan in pursuit of Kadr Khan, who was the son of Yusuf the Tatar, and penetrated as far as Yighur \[I-ghur\] of Turkistan, so far to the north, that he came under the North Pole, and reached a tract where the light of twilight did not disappear at all from the sight; and, to the vision, in the direction of the north, the glow seemed merely to incline \[change over\] from the west to the east, and the light of dawn appeared and the day broke.
