152.2.1

After that event he proceeded into Garmsir and Zamin-i-Dawar, and that tract was liberated; and, as Malik Taj-ud-Din, Yal-duz, of Hirat, had been slain, and the army of Hirat had returned thither discomfited, Badr-ud-Din, Tughril, who was one of [Sultan] Sanjar's slaves took Hirat into his own jurisdiction, and held possession of it for a considerable time, until the inhabitants of Hirat despatched petitions to Sultan Ghiyas-ud-Din inviting him [thither], and that success was also achieved. After some years Faras and the territory of Kaliyun [or Kal-yun], and Fiwar and Baghshor, came into his possession; and, when these parts came under his jurisdiction, he took to wife the daughter of his uncle, the Malikah, Taj-ud-Dunya wa ud-Din, Gohar Malik [Malikah?] the daughter of Sultan ’Ala-ud-Din, Husain. The whole of Gharjistan, and Tal-kan and Juzarwan devolved upon him; and Tigin-abad, out of the district of Jarum Ghiyas-ud-Din made over to his brother, Mu’izz-ud-Din, after he had returned from Sijistan. He [now] began to despatch [bodies of] horse towards Ghaznin, and the district of Zabul, and parts adjacent thereunto; and, at that period, the territory of Kabul, Zabul, and Ghaznin were in the hands of the tribes of the Ghuzz, who had wrested them out of the possession of Khusrau Shah. The reign of Khusrau Shah had terminated, and his son, Khusrau Malik, had made Lohor his capital.
