History of the Khaljis, A.D. 1290–1320 c26.s3.1

c26.s3.1

In the course of writing this book a large number of non-contemporary Persian and Arabic texts and manuscripts have been consulted and a few of these need special attention. The *Tarikh-i-Mubarak Shahi* of Yāhya bin Ahmad, written about the middle of the 15th century (837 H.), supplements Barani at many places though it is in itself a very brief narrative. Its value lies in the fact that it gives dates of events frequently and is written in a simple style. I have used the Bib. Ind. Text and a Ms. copy possessed by the Allahabad University Library.
