When three days passed, since his disappearance, Hulau became aware of the fact of his flight; and despatched horse and foot in pursuit of him, but they did not find him, and again returned. The Malik-ul-Kamil, son of Malik Shihab-ud-Din-i-Ghazi, when he reached his own territory, despatched emissaries to the presence of Zahir, the Malik-un-Nasir, and solicited his assistance, and that he would assemble his troops and come \[along with him\] to the seat of the Khilafat, Baghdad. The Malik-un-Nasir agreed to aid him ; and the son of Malik Shihab-ud-Din-i-Ghazi \[i. e. the Malik-ul-Kamil, Muhammad\], with the whole of his troops, horse and foot, marched towards Baghdad \[to aid the Khalifah\]. On the way he received information of the downfall of Baghdad, and the martyrdom of the Lord of the Faithful He turned back again with the utmost expedition, strengthened his fortresses and cities, and gave intimation to the nomads of his territory, so that the whole of them sought shelter in places of strength, whilst he himself entered and took up his quarters in the fortress of Mayya-farikin, and prepared for holy warfare against the infidels.
