261.2.5
The Tarikh-i-Jahan-gir agrees with Rashid-ud-Din, and the Fanakati, nominated the Nu-in, Fiku, who was his son-in-law, to advance from Hirat and Khurasan towards Ghaznin. When he [with his troops] arrived on the confines of Barwan, Sultan Jalal-ud-Din advanced against that army, and gave it battle, defeated it and put it to flight, and despatched great numbers of the Mughal infidels to hell. A second, and a third time, Mughal armies advanced, and were overthrown. In the army of Sultan Jalal-ud-Din were a great number of the Ighrak [tribe], all warlike men, and ruthless horsemen, and, between that body of the Ighrak, and the 'Ajamis and Khwarazmis, a quarrel arose respecting the booty, and hostility ensued; and that body of Ighrak troops separated from Sultan Jalal-ud-Din, and went off to another place, and the Sultan remained with the Turks [only].
