Muhammad-i-Bakht-yar then left Dihli and proceeded to Buda’un, to the presence of the holder of that fief, the Sipah-Salar [Commander or Leader of troops], Hizabr-ud-Din, Hasan-i-Adib, and he fixed a certain salary for him. The paternal uncle of Muhammad-i-Bakht-yar — Muhammad, son of Mahmud — was in [the army of] Ghaznin [and his nephew joined him]; and, when the battle was fought at Tara’in in which the Golah [Rae Pithora] was defeated, ’Ali, [styled] Nag-awri, entertained Muhammad-i-Mahmud [the uncle] in his own service. When he [’Ali] became feudatory of Nag-awr, he stood up among his brethren [sic] and conferred a kettle-drum and banner upon Muhammad-i-Mahmud, and made over to him the fief of Kashmandi [or Kashtmandi]; and, after his [Muhammad-i-Mahmud’s] death, Muhammad-i-Bakht-yar became feudatory in his place.
