تحفة النظار في غرايب الامصار وعجايب الاسفار 13.81.3

13.81.3

I sailed to Hinawr, then to Fākanūr, then to Manjarūr, then to Hīlī, then to Jurfattan and Dahfattan, Budfattan, Fandarāyinā and Qāliqūṭ, all of which have been mentioned before; then to the city of al-Shāliyāt — spelled with dotted shīn, alif, lām, yāʾ (the last letter of the alphabet), alif and dotted tāʾ — one of the fine cities, where the cloths named after it are made. I stayed there for a long time and then went back to Qāliqūṭ. Two slave boys of mine who had been on the junk arrived there and told me that the slave girl who was pregnant, on whose account I had been distressed, had died; that the ruler of the Jāwa had taken all the other slave girls; that hands had seized the goods; and that my companions had scattered to China, the Jāwa and Banjāla. When I learned this, I returned to Hinawr and then to Sandābūr, which I reached at the end of Muḥarram, and stayed there until the second of the month of Rabīʿ al-Ākhir.
