c10.s2.7

³⁸ At the time of the rebellion, it was suspected that the sons of Saiyyad Sālim had a hand in it, and so Mubārak Shāh imprisoned them. Ferishta, I, 166; T.M.S., 215; T.A., De, 312 n. Badaonī, Ranking, I, 388. But subsequent events show that they had little to do with Faulād's insurrection. Neither Mubārak Shāh nor his successors ever tried to victimise them. On the contrary, after Faulād's fall, they were enrolled in the order of nobility. In the promotion list of the time of Muhammad Shāh's accession (A.D. 1434), we find the eldest son of Saiyyad Sālim retaining the title of Majlis-i-'Ālī Saiyyid Khan and the younger one of Shujaul Mulk. T.M.S., 243, T.A., I, 290.
