تحفة النظار في غرايب الامصار وعجايب الاسفار 13.38.1

13.38.1

When Sayyid Nāṣir al-Dīn al-Awharī set out on his journey, he had left with me one thousand and sixty tankas, and I had spent them. When I returned to Dihlī I found that he had assigned that money to Khudhāwandzāda Qawām al-Dīn, who had come as deputy for the vizier. I was ashamed to tell him, "I have spent the money," so I gave him about a third of it and stayed at home for some days.
