Sultan Ghiyas-ud-Din followed in pursuit of them, and Malik Fakhr-ud-Din was put to the rout. Sultan Ghiyas-ud-Din discerned him, and caused him to turn back again, and conducted him to his camp, and there placed him on the throne; and Sultan Ghiyas-ud-Din, and Mu'izz-ud-Din, both of them, stood before the throne in attendance on him. Chroniclers state that Malik Fakhr-ud-Din, Mas’ud, became enraged \[at this\], and that he reproached both of them unjustly, saying that they mocked him. His words were these: ''You two rascally boys laugh at me!'' The Almighty's mercy be upon them ! This exclamation of his has been mentioned here for this reason, that the beholders and readers of these pages may know the laudable qualities of these two monarchs, the extent of their compassion and clemency, to what degree they guarded the honour and respect \[due\] towards their uncle, and to what extremity they bore his injustice. - [Previous: 163.2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.163.2) - [Next: 163.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.163.4) - [Up: 163](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.163) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.163.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.163.3) · Pramāṇa
