### [13.51.4](https://indike.org/pramana/inf.isl.ar.rihla.ibn-battuta.13.51.4)

ثم رحلنا من مدينة كاليور إلى مدينة برون ، وضبط اسمها بفتح الباء المعقودة وسكون الراء وفتح الواو وآخره نون، مدينة صغيرة للمسلمين بين بلاد الكفار، أميرها محمد بن بيرم التركي الأصل، والسباع بها كثيرة، وذكر لي بعض أهلها أن السبع كان يدخل إليها ليلا وأبوابها مغلقة فيفترس الناس حتى قتل من أهلها كثيرا وكانوا يعجبون في شأن دخوله. وأخبرني محمد التوفيري من أهلها، وكان جارا لي بها أنه دخل داره ليلا وافترس صبيا من فوق السرير، وأخبرني غيره أنه كان مع جماعة في دار عرس فخرج أحدهم لحاجة فافترسه فخرج أصحابه في طلبه فوجدوه مطروحا بالسوق وقد شرب دمه ولم يأكل لحمه.

> Then we set out from the city of Kālyūr to the city of Barwan (its name is spelled with a hard b with a, r without vowel, w with a, ending in n), a small city of the Muslims among the lands of the infidels. Its amīr was Muḥammad b. Bayram, of Turkish origin. Wild beasts are numerous there. One of its people told me that a beast used to enter it at night while its gates were shut and prey on the people, until it had killed many of its inhabitants, and they were amazed at how it got in. Muḥammad al-Tawfīrī, one of its people, who was my neighbour there, told me that it entered his house at night and seized a boy from on top of the bed. Another told me that he was with a group in a house where a wedding was being held; one of them went out to relieve himself and it seized him. His companions went out looking for him and found him lying in the market; it had drunk his blood and had not eaten his flesh.
