The Nāṣirī Generations 93: III. SANJAR SHAH, SON OF TUGIIAN SHAH.

93

When Tughan Shah ascended the throne of Nishapur, he entered into connexion with the Maliks of Ghur, and despatched a confidential agent, and demanded the hand of the daughter of Sultan Ghiyas-ud-Din, Muhammad Sam, for his son, Sanjar Shah. The chief men among the ecclesiastics and theologians of Nishapur accordingly came [into Ghur], and the knot of that marriage contract was tied.
When Tughan Shah died, Takish Khwarazm Shah, marched an army from Khwarazm, and advanced to Nishapur, and possessed himself of that city and territory, seized Sanjar Shah, and carried him away to Khwarazm. Sultan Ghiyas-ud-Din released his daughter, Malikah-i-Jalali, from her betrothal; and, according to the statement of Imam Shafii, he gave her in marriage, in Ghur, to Malik 'Ala-ud-Din. Sanjar Shah died in Khwarazm.
