This affair made many people in the Mogul country believe that this king is of a truth a very great saint, that he becomes invisible whenever he pleases, and proceeds to Mecca to hold conversations with Muhammad. From this cause the people revere him, and hold him in the greatest respect. Yet in spite of his being himself imbued with this idea, he assumes always great humility in his attitude. Of this fact here is one example. For instance, if he sends orders to an officer at a distance in regard to any complaint that has been made of his conduct, and then learns that the said order has passed unheeded, and submission to it has been refused, he betrays no wrath at such insubordination. All he says is (and that in the softest voice) that he is only a miserable sinner, that there is no reason for astonishment if his orders are disregarded, since every day those of God Himself are neglected and repudiated. He does not forget, however, to repeat his orders, and adopt very exact means of getting them executed. This monarch is also desirous of appearing a great lover of justice. This is why he said one day that it was the bounden duty of kings to apply themselves unweariedly and painstakingly to the dispensing of equal justice to everybody. - [Previous: 281.3.5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.281.3.5) - [Next: 281.3.7](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.281.3.7) - [Up: 281.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.281.3) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.281.3.6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.281.3.6) · Pramāṇa
