13.108.1
When we reached the small island between Hinawr and Fākanūr, the infidels came out against us in twelve warships and fought us fiercely. They overpowered us and took everything I had that I had been saving for hard times; they took the gems and rubies the king of Saylān had given me, and they took my clothes and the provisions I had that the pious and the saints had given me, and left me no covering except my trousers! They took what belonged to everyone and put us ashore on the coast. I returned to Qāliqūṭ and went into one of the mosques. One of the jurists sent me a garment, the qāḍī sent a turban, and a merchant sent another garment.
