Then eleven robes of honour were brought for me and my companions. Then the chamberlain rode, and we rode with him to the Sultan's palace, where we made obeisance to the throne according to custom, and I went back to my house. I had hardly arrived when food came from the palace of al-Makhdūma Jahān, enough to fill my house and the houses of my companions; they all ate, the poor ate, and there were loaves, sweetmeats and sugar-candy left over, whose remains lasted for days. All of this was done by order of the Sultan. - [Previous: 13.23.4](https://indike.org/pramana/inf.isl.ar.rihla.ibn-battuta~en-mt.13.23.4) - [Next: 13.23.6](https://indike.org/pramana/inf.isl.ar.rihla.ibn-battuta~en-mt.13.23.6) - [Up: 13.23](https://indike.org/pramana/inf.isl.ar.rihla.ibn-battuta~en-mt.13.23) ## Linked texts (1) - [تحفة النظار في غرائب الأمصار وعجائب الأسفار](https://indike.org/pramana/inf.isl.ar.rihla.ibn-battuta.13.23.5) — Ibn Baṭṭūṭa, Arabic --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/inf.isl.ar.rihla.ibn-battuta~en-mt.13.23.5](https://indike.org/pramana/inf.isl.ar.rihla.ibn-battuta~en-mt.13.23.5) · Pramāṇa
