He was succeeded by his brother’s son, the I-lak Khan, Abu-l-Hasan-i-Nasr, son of ’Ali. V. The I-Lak Khan, Abu-l-Hasan-i-Nasr, son of ’Ali, brother of Harun-i-Bughra Khan \[this is the person our author mentions at page 51\], marched from Uz-gand, and acquired predominance over Bukhara on the 10th of Zi-Hijjah, 389 H., seized Amir ’Abd-ul-Malik, son of Nuh, the Samani, and sent him away to Uz-gand in Farghanah \[a totally different place from Urganj as stated in note page 52, through an error of the copyist in writing j for j and from Gur-ganj — Khwarazm\], and took possession of the whole of Mawara-un-Nahr. He again came to Samrkand in 391 H.; and, in 393 H., Abu-Ibrahim-i-Muntasir, the last of the Samanis, with the aid of the Ghuzz, defeated the I-lak Khan, and compelled him to retire. With the help of the Ghuzz tribe, under their Mihtar, or Chief, Begghu, Abu-Ibrahim re-took Bukhara, and re-subdued all Mawara-un-Nahr. It was but a temporary advantage however, although the I-lak Khan was a second time defeated by the confederates, for he returned soon after with a great host, and subsequently completely overthrew Abu-Ibrahim in 395 H., who, in the meantime, had been deserted by the Ghuzz tribe. - [Previous: 253.5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.253.5) - [Next: 253.7](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.253.7) - [Up: 253](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.253) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.253.6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.253.6) · Pramāṇa
