### [12.30.1](https://indike.org/pramana/inf.isl.ar.rihla.ibn-battuta~en-mt.12.30.1)

When Khudhāwandzāda arrived, the sultan gave him a generous gift, treated him with great kindness and honoured him exceedingly. He then married his two sons to the two daughters of the vizier Khwāja Jahān. The vizier was away at the time, so

### [12.30.2](https://indike.org/pramana/inf.isl.ar.rihla.ibn-battuta~en-mt.12.30.2)

the sultan came to his house by night and attended the marriage contract as though acting for the vizier. He stood while the chief qāḍī read out the dower, the qāḍīs, amīrs and shaykhs being seated. The sultan took the garments and the purses in his own hand and placed them before the qāḍī and the two sons of Khudhāwandzāda. The amīrs rose, refusing to let the sultan place these before them himself, but he ordered them to sit, ordered one of the senior amīrs to take his place, and departed.
