[74] Allah-dād was s. Jalālu-d-dīn Tārīkī, also called Raus͟hānī, and he became a distinguished officer of S͟hāh-Jahān under the title of Ras͟hīd K. See Maʾās̤ir, II. 248, and Dabistān, 390. [↑]
[75] There are different readings. No. 181 has Maud and Mihrī. Apparently it is the Mau and Nabah of Jarrett, II. 319, where also there are various readings. See also Tūzuk, 263, where the text has Mau u s͟hahra. [↑]
[76] Or Chārvara. See Rieu Catalogue, I. 297. Ḥaidar Malik wrote a history of Kashmir. It was he who protected Nūr-Jahān after her first husband’s murder. Stein has Cadura, recte Isādur p. 43; it is 10 miles south of Srinagar. [↑]

See also Jarrett, II. 363. According to Stein, 191, Halthal is the name of the village, and is a corruption of Salasthala. This agrees with the Āyīn I. 569, but not with Akbar-nāma III. 542, where halthal is given as the name of the tree. [↑]
[79] I have not found this passage in the Akbar-nāma. The Iqbāl-nāma, 159, says that 70 people stood erect inside of the trunk. Rāwal-pūr is marked on the map of Kashmir, a little to the south of Srinagar. Niz̤āmu-d-dīn, in his chapter on Kashmir in the T̤abaqāt-i-Akbarī, speaks of a tree under the shade of which 200 horsemen could stand. [↑]
[80] Possibly bī-ṣarfa only means “unsuccessful.” But it is used lower down (text 308, line 8), in the sense of immoderate or unprofitable. [↑]
