356.1.6

When the said prince fell ill and knew he had no hope of life he made his will, and named the King of Persia, Xasulten assen (Shãh Sultãn Husain), heir to all his property. This king directed Akbar's body to be conveyed to the city of Maxat (Mashhad), where the Kings of Persia are buried. He caused a grand sepulchre to be built for the prince close to that of his own father, Sultãn Sulaimãn, who had been a great friend of Akbar. He also directed that all the precious stones which had belonged to the prince should be inserted upon the tomb ; he would not accept for himself a single thing from the inheritance. In connection with his interment he also distributed bountiful alms, and assigned to the tomb an endowment, by which three hundred poor were fed daily. These acts caused the praise of his generosity to become universal. This king lives at this day in peace, and shows himself extremely devout, never missing on any day his appointed prayers, beseeching God to maintain peace. He does not slaughter numbers of people, as had been the cruel practice of his ancestors.
