The writer then hushes up the subsequent overthrows of the Mughals at the Sultan’s hands, and proceeds to narrate the defection of a great part of his troops, consequent on the quarrel between Yamin Malik, as he styles Malik Khan of Hirat \[whose title was the Yamin-ul-Mulk. See page 287, and page 540, note, para. 2\], and Saif-ud-Din, Ighrak. Malik Saif-ud-Din, Ighrak, together with other Khalj Amirs, and the A’zam Malik \[the A’zam-ul-Mulk, son of 'Imad-ud-Din, the Balkhi\], a Ghuri chief, with their troops, Khalj \[there were Kankulis, and Ghuzz, among them too. See page 376\], Turkmans, and Ghuris, went off in the direction of Parshawar, while the other Turks and Khwarazmis with the Sultan, retired towards Ghaznin. It must not be lost sight of, in connexion with this mention of Ghuzz, that they were once in possession of Ghaznin, Kabul, and Zabul. These Khalj Turks, under the name of Khilich, Dr. Bellew makes Ghilzi Afghans of, and Col. G. B. Malleson first turns them into “Abdalis” and afterwards into “Ghilzais!” These selfish and disloyal chiefs, however, very soon received their deserts. - [Previous: 261.2.5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.261.2.5) - [Next: 261.2.7](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.261.2.7) - [Up: 261.2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.261.2) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.261.2.6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.261.2.6) · Pramāṇa
