13.109.2

His son Shams al-Dīn ruled until he died, and then his son Shihāb al-Dīn ruled, until his brother Ghiyāth al-Dīn Bahādūr overpowered him. Shihāb al-Dīn sought the help of Sultan Ghiyāth al-Dīn Tughluq, who helped him and took Bahādūr Būr prisoner. Then his son Muḥammad, when he became king, released him on condition that he share his kingdom with him, but he broke faith with him, so he fought him until he killed him. He appointed a brother-in-law of his over this country, but the army killed him, and ʿAlī Shāh, who was then in the country of al-Lakhnawtī, seized its kingship. When Fakhr al-Dīn saw that the kingship had passed out of the hands of the sons of Sultan Nāṣir al-Dīn, whose client he was, he rebelled in Sudkāwān and the country of Banjāla and made himself independent king. The strife between him and ʿAlī Shāh grew fierce: in the days of winter and mud Fakhr al-Dīn would raid the country of al-Lakhnawtī by water, because of his strength there, and when the days without rain returned ʿAlī Shāh would raid Banjāla by land, because of his strength there.
