This affair of the fortress [of Multan] happened in the year 621 H.; and, one year and a half subsequently, the Maliks of Ghur, through the ravages of the Mughal infidels, joined Malik [Sultan] Nasir-ud-Din, Kaba-jah; and, in the latter part of the year 623 H., a body of [the tribe of] Khalj, a part of the Khwarazmi forces, acquired supremacy over the district of Mansurah which is [one] of the cities of Siwastan, and their head was Malik Khan, the Khalj. Malik [Sultan] Nasir-ud-Din, Kaba-jah, moved on to repel them, and a battle took place between the two armies, and the Khalj force was overthrown, and the Khan [Chief] of the Khalj was slain; and Malik [Sultan] Nasir-ud-Din, Kaba-jah, returned again to Uchchah and Multan.
