Malik Salih fell into the hands of the Mughals, and was conducted to the presence of Hulaku \[in Azarbaijan\]. The ferocious barbarian, exasperated at the defeats the Mughals had sustained, directed the Nu-yin, Ilka, to have him enveloped — not simply besmeared with fat — in fat tails of the dumbah, or fat-tailed sheep, sewn up in felt, and then exposed to the who was the disciple of the Khalifah, ’Ali, and, subsequently, the tutor of Hasan and Husain, his sons. This kasidah prophecies the irruption of the Turks, the sedition of the Chingiz Khan in Chin and Tamghaj, and the fall of the Muhammadan empires; and also the total annihilation of the Turks. Our author gives a Persian translation of the poem, and argues, and draws his own conclusions from what has happened, up to his own time, that the period of their total and complete annihilation was close at hand — it was to happen in 659 H. or in 661 H. — since he left Hulaku and his Mughals in Sham, a few pages back, where their destruction was to take place. There he relates that it had even then been reported to have happened, but "the wish is parent to the thought," and, like other prophecies, this one has never come about. - [Previous: 295.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.295.4) - [Next: 295.6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.295.6) - [Up: 295](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.295) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.295.5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.295.5) · Pramāṇa
