The people of Firuz-koh showed opposition towards Malik Mubariz-ud-Din, the Sabzwari \[who was in charge\], and rose against him; and he was under the necessity of entering the upper fortress, which is situated to the north-east of the city, upon a lofty and overhanging mountain. During the time of the Sultans of Ghur there was no more upon that spot than a great kasr \[castle\], and it used to be impossible for laden beasts to get there; but, at this period, that Malik Mubariz-ud-Din, the Sabzwari, had restored and enlarged that fortress, he had carried a rampart all round the top of that mountain, and had made a road to that fortress so that laden camels used to go up to it, and a thousand men could find quarters therein. - [Previous: 266.7](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.266.7) - [Next: 267.2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.267.2) - [Up: 267](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.267) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.267.1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.267.1) · Pramāṇa
