3.2.3

Just at this time, Ibrahim Khan, the son of 'Umar Khan, galloped up to his father, and said, "I adjure you by the Kuran and the salt of the Prince not to advance your horse. As you looked on whilst Darya Khan the son of Mubarak Khan, and Mian Husain the son of Khwajagi, were fighting, look also at what your own son does!" 'Umar Khan said, "I am ready to witness your valour, and will hold back." Ibrahim Khan said, "Nothing can be perceived in a crowd; you ought, therefore, to see me advance singly." After saying this to his father, he attacked the enemy's 15,000 horsemen three times, overthrowing on each occasion two or three hostile cavaliers with his spear, whilst their horses fled riderless. 'Umar Khan, when he beheld this, raised the battle-cry of the followers of Islam, and charged the division attached to Tátár Khán himself. Tátár Khán was slain, and Hasan Khán his brother fell alive into his hands, and the whole army of Tátár Khán was routed. This victory, which no one expected the Prince to gain, caused him to be admired by all the people and nobles. After this, Sultán Bahlol also became thoroughly convinced that Nizam Khan was the ablest of his sons, so much so that he appointed him his successor.
