M. gives this date and it is copied by Badaoni and Firishta. This date is corroborated from another source. Muhammad Tughluq's death occurred on Muharram 21, 752 A.H. Yahya who is followed by Badāoni and Firishta gives the duration of his reign as 27 years. Calculating backwards we find that Muhammad's accesion should take place sometime in Muharram 725 A.H. But Yahya leaves out of account the forty and odd days after which his coronation was celebrated at Dihli. Barani, Cal. Text, p. 456. Hajji-ad-Dabīr's statement that the Sultan's death occurred in the month of Zi-al-hijjah is incorrect. - [Previous: c6.163](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.prasad-1936.c6.163) - [Next: c6.165](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.prasad-1936.c6.165) - [Up: c6](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.prasad-1936.c6) ## Cites (1) - [Tārīkh-i Fīrūzshāhī](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tarikh-i-firuzshahi-afif) — Shams-i Sirāj ʿAfīf --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.prasad-1936.c6.164](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.prasad-1936.c6.164) · Pramāṇa
