### [149.3.5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.149.3.5)

From that place ’Ala-ud-Din turned his face to the conquest of Gharjistan; and took to wife the lady Hur Malikah, who was the daughter of the Shar, Shah \[by name\], son of Ibrahim, Shar, son of Ardashir, one of the Maliks of Gharjistan; and the valley of the Murghab river and \[its\] fortresses came into his possession. The fortress of Sabekji \[or Sabegji\], however, held out, and carried on hostilities \[against him\] for six years; and of this time, for a period of three years, he sat down continually before it, until it was given up to him. Towards the end of Sultan ’Ala-ud-Din’s life, Mulahidah emissaries came to him from Alamut, and he treated them with great reverence; and in every place in Ghur they sought, secretly, to make proselytes. The Mulahidah \[heretic\] of Alamut had set his ambition on subjecting the people of Ghur \[to his heresy\], and making them submissive. This fact became defilement which adhered to the train of the ’Ala-i robe of sovereignty. Of his life, however, but a short period remained, and he died, and they buried him by the side of his ancestors and his brethren. The Almighty forgive him!
