### [13.4.5](https://indike.org/pramana/inf.isl.ar.rihla.ibn-battuta.13.4.5)

التي استولى عليها من الخزائن والمعادن وفرقها على الناس ليرفعوها ويوصلوها إلى أسفل الجبل، فعندما علم الكفار بخروجهم قعدوا لهم بتلك المهاوي وأخذوا عليهم المضيق وصاروا يقطعون الأشجار العادية قطعا ويطرحونها من أعلى الجبل فلا تمر بأحد الا اهلكته فهلك الكثير من الناس وأسر الباقون منهم وأخذ الكفار الأموال والأمتعة والخيل والسلاح، ولم يفلت من العسكر الا ثلاثة من الأمراء: كبيرهم نكبية، وبدر الدين الملك دولة شاه، وثالث لهما لا اذكره، وهذه الوقيعة أثرت في جيش الهند أثرا كبيرا وأضعفته ضعفا بينا، وصالح السلطان بعدها أهل الجبل على مال يؤدونه إليه لأن لهم البلاد أسفل الجبل ولا قدرة لهم على عمارتها إلا باذنه.

> he had seized from the treasuries and the mines and distributed it among the men to carry and bring down to the foot of the mountain. As soon as the infidels learned of their departure, they lay in wait for them in those ravines and blocked the pass against them, and began cutting huge old trees into pieces and hurling them from the top of the mountain, and they struck no one without killing him. Many of the men perished and the rest were taken captive, and the infidels took the wealth, the baggage, the horses and the weapons. None of the army escaped except three of the amīrs: the chief of them Nakbiya, Badr al-Dīn al-Malik Dawlat Shāh, and a third whom I do not remember. This disaster had a great effect on the army of Hind and weakened it markedly. After it the Sultan made peace with the people of the mountain in return for tribute they would pay him, because the lands at the foot of the mountain belong to them and they cannot cultivate them except with his permission.
