وكان في عسكر الوزير الأعاجم والترك والخراسانيون، وهم أعداء الهنود فصدقوا القتال وكان جيش القائم نحو الخمسين الفا فانهزموا عند طلوع الفجر وكان الملك إبراهيم المعروف بالبنجي، بفتح الباء الموحدة وسكون النون وجيم، التتري قد اقطعه السلطان بلاد سنديلة وهي قرية من بلاد عين الملك فاتفق معه على الخلاف وجعله نائبه وكان داود بن قطب الملك وابن ملك التجار على فيلة السلطان وخيله فوافقاه أيضا وجعل داود حاجبه.

In the vizier's army were Persians, Turks and Khurāsānīs, who are enemies of the Indians, and they fought hard. The rebel's army numbered about fifty thousand, and they were routed at daybreak. Malik Ibrāhīm, known as al-Banjī (with a over the b, quiescent n, and j), the Tatar, to whom the Sultan had granted the district of Sandīla, a village in ʿAyn al-Mulk's territory, had joined him in rebellion, and he had made him his deputy. Dāwūd son of Quṭb al-Mulk and the son of Malik al-Tujjār, who were in charge of the Sultan's elephants and horses, had also sided with him, and he had made Dāwūd his chamberlain.
