He was beside himself and flew into a rage; he gathered the viziers and the chief men of the army and sent for me. I came to him; it had been my custom to make obeisance to him, but I did not. I said, "Peace be upon you," and then said to those present, "Bear witness that I have removed myself from the office of qāḍī because I am unable to carry it out!" The vizier spoke to me; I went up and sat in a place facing him and answered him most harshly. The muezzin called the sunset prayer, and he went into his house saying, "And they say that I am sultan! Here I summoned him to vent my anger on him, and he vented his anger on me!" My standing over them was only on account of the Sultan of Hind, for they knew for certain of my position with him, and although they were far from him, fear of him was firmly fixed in their hearts. When he had gone into his house he sent me the deposed qāḍī, who was bold of tongue. He said to me, "Our master says to you: how could you violate his dignity before witnesses and not make obeisance to him?" I said to him, "I used to make obeisance to him when my heart was well disposed towards him; when the change occurred I gave it up. The greeting of Muslims is only the salutation of peace, and I gave it!" He sent him to me a second time, and he said, "Your aim is only to leave us; so pay your wives' dowries and the people's debts and go when you wish."
