The Nāṣirī Generations 74: VII. KAI-KHUSRAU, SON OF KAI-KUBAD.

74

Sultan Ghiyas-ud-Din, Kai-Khusrau, was a great monarch of noble disposition and excellent qualities, just and impartial. Having ascended the throne after the death of his father, he took possession of the territories of Rum, and assumed the government of them.
In this reign, the disturbance and disorder consequent upon the irruption of the army of infidel Mughals had reached the frontiers of Rum. The Sultan, in such manner as he was able, entered into friendly relations with the Farang. He was assembling an army upon the frontiers bordering upon the territory of Islam, when, suddenly, he was deserted and left alone by his troops. The Mughal forces made an inroad into that territory; and, after they again retired, Kai-Khusrau died in the beginning of Muharram, 643 H.
He reigned for a period of eleven years, and named his son, 'Izz-ud-Din, Kai-Ka-us, his heir and successor.
