On Sunday, the 12th of the same month, they \[the Mughals\] sprung an ambuscade against the fortress of Tulak, and made determined attacks upon it; and, on that day, the infidels lost great numbers of men killed before that fortress; and then they retired. When the infidel Mughals had withdrawn from Khurasan, and the jibal \[mountain tracts\] of Ghur and Khurasan had become clear of that host, Malik Kutb-ud-Din, Husain, resolved upon retiring into Hindustan, together with other Maliks of Ghur, such, for example, as Malik Saraj-ud-Din, 'Umr-i-Kharosh, from the territory of Jar, and Malik Saif-ud-Din, and others, all joined him, and, with their families and dependents, set out. By destiny's decree, a force from the infidel Mughals' main army was nominated \[about this time\] for the purpose of ravaging Khurasan, and, at the head of that army, was a Mughal of note, whose name was Kazil Manjuk; and it entered Khurasan. From the side of Hirat and Isfizar it advanced to the foot of the fortress of Tulak, and every Musalman the Mughals found within the fortress \[of Saif-rud\] they martyred, or made captive. There they obtained information from the captives of the departure of Malik Kutb-ud-Din, Husain, with other Maliks of Ghur, with their families and dependents, and their followers.
