2.53

As for their great men, they have villages and estates, and among them are some who have fifty villages. The Ṣadr-i Jahān—which is the title of the chief qāḍī, who in our time is Kamāl al-Dīn b. al-Burhān—has ten villages, whose yield comes to nearly sixty thousand tankas; he is also called Ṣadr al-Islām, and he is the highest of the deputies of judicial authority. The Shaykh al-Islām, who is the shaykh of shaykhs, has the same, and the muḥtasib has a village whose yield comes to nearly eight thousand tankas.
