### ذكر ثورة كشلوخان وقتله

### [13.3.1](https://indike.org/pramana/inf.isl.ar.rihla.ibn-battuta.13.3.1)

ولما اتصل بالسلطان ما كان من فعله في دفن الجلدين بعث عنه وعلم كشلوخان أنه يريد عقابه فامتنع وخالف وأعطى الأموال وجمع العساكر وبعث إلى الترك والأفغان وأهل خراسان، فأتاه منهم العدد الجم حتى كافأ عسكره عسكر السلطان أو أربى عليه كثرة وخرج السلطان بنفسه لقتاله، فكان اللقاء على مسيرة يومين من ملتان بصحراء أبو هر ، وأخذ السلطان بالحزم عند لقائه فجعل تحت الشطر عوضا منه الشيخ عماد الدين شقيق الشيخ ركن الدين الملتاني ، وهو حدثني هذا وكان شبيها به، فلما حمى القتال انفرد السلطان في أربعة آلاف من عسكره، وقصد عسكر كشلوخان قصد الشطر معتقدين أن السلطان تحته فقتلوا عماد الدين، وشاع في العسكر أن السلطان قتل فاشتغلت عساكر كشلوخان بالنهب وتفرقوا عنه ولم يبق معه إلا القليل، فقصده السلطان بمن معه فقتله وجز راسه، وعلم بذلك جيشه ففروا، ودخل السلطان مدينة ملتان وقبض على قاضيها كريم الدين وأمر بسلخه فسلخ، وأمر برأس كشلوخان فعلق على بابه، وقد رأيته معلقا لما وصلت إلى ملتان، وأعطى السلطان للشيخ ركن الدين أخى عماد الدين ولابنه وصدر الدين مائه قرية إنعاما عليهم ليأكلوا منها ويطعموا بزاويتهم المنسوبة لجدهم بهاء الدين زكرياء وأمر

> When the Sultan learned of what he had done in burying the two skins, he summoned him. Kishlū Khān, knowing that he intended to punish him, refused and rebelled; he distributed money, gathered troops and sent to the Turks, the Afghans and the people of Khurāsān, and a great host of them came to him, so that his army equalled the Sultan's army or exceeded it in number. The Sultan went out in person to fight him, and the encounter took place two days' journey from Multān, in the desert of Abūhar. The Sultan took precautions at the encounter, placing under the parasol in his stead Shaykh ʿImād al-Dīn, brother of Shaykh Rukn al-Dīn al-Multānī, who resembled him — and it was he who told me this. When the battle grew hot, the Sultan drew apart with four thousand of his troops, while Kishlū Khān's army made for the parasol, believing that the Sultan was under it, and killed ʿImād al-Dīn. It spread through the army that the Sultan had been killed, so Kishlū Khān's troops busied themselves with plunder and scattered from him, and only a few remained with him. The Sultan then made for him with those who were with him, killed him and cut off his head. When his army learned of this they fled. The Sultan entered the city of Multān, seized its qāḍī Karīm al-Dīn and ordered him to be flayed, and he was flayed. He ordered Kishlū Khān's head to be hung over his gate, and I saw it hanging there when I arrived in Multān. The Sultan gave Shaykh Rukn al-Dīn, the brother of ʿImād al-Dīn, and his son Ṣadr al-Dīn a hundred villages as a grant, to live on and to provide food at their hospice named after their grandfather Bahāʾ al-Dīn Zakariyyāʾ. The Sultan ordered

السلطان وزيره خواجة جهان أن يذهب إلى مدينة كمال بور وهي مدينة كبيرة على ساحل البحر، وكان أهلها قد خالفوا فأخبرني بعض الفقهاء انه حضر دخول الوزير إياها قال: وأحضر بين يديه القاضي بها والخطيب فأمر بسلخ جلودهما، فقالا له: اقتلنا بغير ذلك، فقال لهما: بما استوجبتما القتل؟ فقالا: بمخالفتنا أمر السلطان، فقال لهما: فكيف أخالف أنا أمره وقد أمرني أن اقتلكما بهذه القتلة، وقال للمتولين لسلخهما: احفروا لهما حفرا تحت وجوههما يتنفسان فيها فانهم اذا سلخوا، والعياذ بالله، يطرحون على وجوههم، ولما فعل ذلك تمهدت بلاد السند وعاد السلطان إلى حضرته.

> his vizier Khwāja Jahān to go to the city of Kamālpūr, a large city on the seashore whose inhabitants had rebelled. One of the jurists told me that he was present when the vizier entered it. He said: The qāḍī and the preacher of the city were brought before him, and he ordered them to be flayed. They said to him, "Kill us some other way." He said to them, "For what have you deserved death?" They said, "For disobeying the Sultan's command." He said to them, "Then how can I disobey his command, when he has ordered me to kill you by this death?" And he told those charged with flaying them, "Dig holes for them under their faces in which they can breathe" — for when they are flayed, God preserve us, they are laid on their faces. When this had been done, the land of Sind was pacified and the Sultan returned to his capital.
