Badaoni who follows this history gives the same date.³⁹ Barani who is a contemporary writer gives no date but simply says: 'About this time occurred the rebellion of Fakhra in Bengal . . . ' mentioning it just before the revolt of Ahsan Shah in Ma'bar.⁴⁰ Ibn Batutah gives no date, although he says that when in 746 A.H. he visited Bengal, he found Fakhr-al-Din ruling there.⁴¹ The chronology of Muslim historians is highly defective. Barani is obviously wrong in placing the revolt just before the rebellion of Ahsan Shah which occurred in 735 A.H. Nizam-al-Din follows Barani and gives no date.⁴² Firishta's date 742 A.H. (1341 A.D.) is absolutely incorrect, as is proved by numismatic evidence.⁴³ There is a coin of Fakhr-al-Din, dated 737 A.H.
