Subsequent to these events, Malik Balban came to the determination of undertaking a journey into Khurasan, and proceeding into 'Irak to the presence of Hula'u, the Mughal, who is a Shah-zadah \[Prince\] of Turkistan, and presented himself before him. He returned from thence, and came back to his own place of residence again \[to Uchchah\]: and, up to the date of this narrative, which was the year 658 H., he has despatched his own agents, along with the Shahnah \[the Mughal Intendant\] of the territories of Sind, which was on account of the army of Mughals \[then on the Dihli frontier\], to the presence of the Court. Please God, it may turn out well and advantageously, and may He long preserve the Sultan of Islam, Nasir-ud-Dunya wa ud-Din, Abu-l-Muzaffar-i-Mahmud Shah, on the throne of sovereignty! - [Previous: 238.15](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.238.15) - [Next: 239](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.239) - [Up: 238](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.238) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.238.16](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.238.16) · Pramāṇa
