† These are generally styled by the Muhammadan writers Barfi Rajah, or Snowy kings. For instance, in Khafi Khan, ii. 671, and Masir-ul-umara, iii. 673. Khush-hal Chand, Nadir-uz-zamani (B. Museum, Addl. No. 24,027, fol. 214b) tells us that the name was given because the Nahan Rajah used to send boatloads of ice (colloquially barf) as presents to the Emperors and nobles of Dihli.
