After this, the Majir-ul-Mulk began to detach troops to harry the vicinity of Sarahs; and the Baha-ud-Mulk \[the Sultan’s governor\], hearing of the state of affairs, and the predominance acquired by the Majir-ul-Mulk, came forth from the Hisar of Tak, and went to the Mughal Amirs in those parts \[our author mentions how numerous bodies of Mughals were sent into Ghur and Gharjistan about this time\], acquainted them with the state of affairs, and sought to obtain, through them, the charge of the territory of Marw agreeing to pay a certain amount yearly as tribute. His offers were accepted and he was sent to Marw, along with a body of Mughal troops. Arrived at Shahristan, the Baha-ul-Mulk indited a letter to the Majir-ul-Mulk, saying: “Some ill-feeling and distrust existed between us on account of a certain office, but that has vanished; and, as the power of the Mughals is such as cannot be coped with, wisdom and foresight alike demand that no other road save that of submission and obedience, should be traversed. - [Previous: 263.1.6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.263.1.6) - [Next: 263.1.8](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.263.1.8) - [Up: 263.1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.263.1) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.263.1.7](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.263.1.7) · Pramāṇa
