With that object they pushed onwards, and the Jud Hills and parts adjacent to the river Jilam \[Jhilam\] they assailed; and the army of Islam carried its incursions, and ravaged \[the country\], as far as the banks of the river Sind, and despoiled Jas-Pal, Sihra \[or Sehra\], and the whole of his tribes. The Musalman force was taken over the river Jilam \[Jhilam\], and carried its ravages as far as the banks of the river Sind, in such wise, that all women, families, and dependents of the infidels who were in those parts, took to flight, and a body \[of men\] from the army of the infidel Mughals came to the ferries of the Jilam \[Jhilam\], and beheld the lines of the Musalman troops serving under Ulugh Khan-i-A’zam, and fear fell upon their hearts, at the number of troops composing his army, the number of cavalry in defensive armour, and the abundance of arms, and war material; and they wondered greatly, and great terror took possession of that gathering. That vigour, military organization, and overthrowing of enemies, in the assault of mountain heights, the gorges of mountain passes, and of ravines, the capturing of strong places and forts and penetrating of forests, which Ulugh Khan-i-A’zam displayed, cannot be contained within the area of recital, and the fame of that holy warfare extended as far as the land of Turkistan.
