It is possible that Alminjah was a grandson of Turk, and son of one of the four named above. parted from those regions, which became the seat of Jalzah may be meant for Alinjah or the like, but I must mention that Abu-l-Ghazi is the most modern of all the authors I have referred to, he having only begun his History in 1074 H. = 1663 A.D., and that, in one place in his work, he states that he himself copied from other authors what is contained therein down to the time of his ancestor Shaibani Khan, the contemporary and enemy of Babar. Those authors must have been some of those whose works I have already named; but Abu-l-Ghazi differs from them essentially, and can scarcely be considered a better authority than those who centuries previously compiled the history of the descendants of Yafis by command of Mughal sovereigns, and from the best authorities. For the above reasons I must assume that Turk was succeeded by his grandson, Alminjah or Alinjah, possibly the son of Tutag or Tunag. - [Previous: 245.9](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.245.9) - [Next: 245.11](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.245.11) - [Up: 245](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.245) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.245.10](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.245.10) · Pramāṇa
