After a time, however, they advised him not to believe this statement of an interested person and a traitor, and that to abandon Marw would be an act of great folly. The messengers from the Baha-ul-Mulk were separated and questioned respecting the actual number of troops along with him, and, on their giving replies confirming the Baha-ul-Mulk’s statement, the Majir-ul-Mulk ordered both of them to be put to death, and despatched from Marw a body of 2500 Turk troops of the Sultan of Khwarazm, to drive off the Baha-ul-Mulk and his Mughal allies. When the Mughals found this, they secured the Baha-ul-Mulk, whose own followers now deserted him, and returned towards Tus where they struck off his head. - [Previous: 263.1.7](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.263.1.7) - [Next: 263.2.1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.263.2.1) - [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.263.1.8](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.263.1.8) · Pramāṇa
