Tabakat-i-Nasiri 211 - **Language:** English ### [211](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.211) When the year 652 H. commenced, the river Jun was passed, and, in the vicinity of the Koh-payah \[skirt of the mountains\] of Bardar and Bijnor, many successes were gained, and vast booty acquired. On Thursday, the 13th of the month of Muharram of this year, the river Gang was crossed \[by the Sultan and his troops\] in front of Mia-pur, and in the same manner, keeping along the skirt of the mountains, the force proceeded as far as the banks of the river Rahab. During these holy expeditions, on Sunday, the 18th of the month of Safar, at Tiklah-Bani Malik Razi-ul-Mulk, Izz-ud-Din, Durmashi \[Durmasani?\], attained martyrdom. On the following day, the 16th of Safar, the Sultan of Islam, in order to avenge that act, inflicted such a chastisement upon the infidels of Katheher as \[the people of\] that territory will remember for the rest of their lifetime, and \[afterwards\] departed towards Buda’un; and, on Thursday, the 19th of the month of Safar, the district of Buda’un became adorned with the magnificence and dignity of his auspicious canopy of state and sublime standards. The Sultan halted there for nine days, and, after that, decided upon a return to the capital. On Sunday, the 6th of the month of Rabi'-ul-Awwal, the Wazarat-i-Mamalik \[Wazir-ship of the realm\] fell to the charge, for the second time, of the Sadr-ul-Mulk, Najm-ud-Din, Abu-Bikr; and, on Sunday, the 20th of Rabi'-ul-Awwal, within the limits of Kol, the Sultan honoured this vassal of the dynasty \[the author\] with the title of Sadr-i-Jahan — the Almighty long preserve him in the sovereignty! — and, on Saturday, the 26th of Rabi’-ul-Awwal, the capital, Dihli, was reached. The Sultan continued at Dihli for a period of five months when information arrived respecting the assemblage of the Maliks who had gathered about Malik Jalal-ud-Din, Mas’ud Shah \[the Sultan's brother\]. The sublime standards \[accordingly\], in the month of Sha'ban, moved towards Sunam and Tabarhindah, and the 'Id-i-Fitr \[the festival at the end of the Fast Month — Ramazan\] was celebrated at Sunam. The forces of the Maliks, namely, Malik Taj-ud-Din, Arsalan Khan, Sanjar-i-Chast of Tabarhindah, Malik Saif-ud-Din, Bat Khan, I-bak, the Khita-i, and Ulugh Khan-i-A’zam from Nag-awr, were along with Malik Jalal-ud-Din, Mas'ud Shah, in the neighbourhood of Tabarhindah. The Sultan \[with the forces of his party\] left Sunam and retired to Hansi, and those Maliks moved towards Kuhram and Kaithal. The Sultan \[on this\] marched from Hansi \[8th of Shawwal\] in the same direction. A party of Amirs now interposed between the two personages \[the Sultan and Jalal-ud-Din, Mas’ud Shah\] and spoke words of peace, and ’Imad-ud-Din-i-Rayhan was the cause of discord on both sides, until, on Saturday, the 22nd of Shawwal of this same year, the Sultan of Islam commanded that ’Imad-ud-Din-i-Rayhan should be sent to Buda’un, and that that territory should be his fief ; and that accommodation was effected. On Tuesday, the 17th of the month of Zi-Ka’dah, after vows, pledges, and stipulations, Malik Jalal-ud-Din, Mas’ud Shah, and the whole of the Amirs and Maliks presented themselves, and \[the province of\] Lohor became the fief of Malik Jalal-ud-Din, Mas’ud Shah ; and, attended by security and felicity, the Sultan and his forces entered the capital city of Dihli, under a fortunate star, on Tuesday, the 9th of the month of Zi-Hijjah — May Almighty God ever adorn the sublime standards of the Sultan with the emblems of victory for the sake of his illustrious Prophet! - [Previous: 210](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.210) - [Next: 212](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.212) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.211](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.211) · Pramāṇa
