### [197.9](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.197.9)

Having divided into two bodies, one body, from the side of the Hisar-i-Nau \[the new Citadel\], entered the gateway of the Jami' Masjid on the northern side, and the second body, passing through the Bazar-i-Bazazan \[the Bazar of the Cloth-Merchants\], entered the gateway of the Mu’izzi College under the supposition that it was the Jami' Masjid, and, on both sides, fell upon the Musalmans with \[their\] swords. A great number of people, some by the swords of those heretics, and some \[trodden\] under people’s feet, attained martyrdom. On an outcry having arisen from the city on account of this outbreak, the warriors of the city, such as Nasir-ud-Din, Ai-yitim, the Balarami, and Amir, Imam-i-Nasiri, the Poet, and other armed men, from different directions, rode fully equipped \[as they were\] with cuirass, and other defensive armour, steel cap, spear, and shield, into the Jami Masjid, by the minarah entrance and plied their swords upon the Mulahidah and Kiramitah heretics ; and the Musalmans, who were on the roof of the Jami Masjid, poured down stones and bricks upon them, and sent the whole of the Mulahidahs and Kiramitahs to hell, and quelled that outbreak; Thanks be to God for the blessing of safety and the honour of religion !
