Trustworthy narrators have related after this manner that, when Sultan 'Ala-ud-Din, Husain, Jahan-soz, was removed from the habitation of the world, and Sultan Saif-ud-Din, Muhammad, his son, ascended the throne of Ghur, he commanded, that both the Sultans, Ghiyas-ud-Din, Muhammad, and Mu'izz-ud-Din, Muhammad, sons of Sam, who were imprisoned within the fortress of Wajiristan, should be released, as has been stated previously in the account of Sultan Ghiyas-ud-Din. Sultan Ghiyas-ud-Din abode at the court of Firuz-koh in the service of Sultan Saif-ud-Din \[his cousin\], and Sultan Mu’izz-ud-Din proceeded to the court of Bamian to the presence of his uncle, Malik Fakhr-ud-Din, Mas’ud-i-Husain Bamiani. When Sultan Ghiyas-ud-Din ascended \[the throne of\] the dominion of Ghur, after the catastrophe of Sultan Saif-ud-Din, Muhammad, and the news of it reached Bamian, Malik Fakhr-ud-Din, Mas'ud, turned his face towards Mu’izz-ud-Din and said: “Thy brother hath distinguished himself; when wilt thou do the like, and bestir thyself?” Mu’izz-ud-Din hung his head in the presence of his uncle, and left the audience hall, and set out then and there for the Court of Firuz-koh. When he reached the presence of Ghiyas-ud-Din \[his brother\], he became Sar-i-Jandar \[Chief Armour-Bearer\], and he continued to serve his brother, and served him with assiduity, as has been previously recorded.
