Note 54 — PART I.—DESCRIPTION.
Reading edition
Briggs’ Farishtah, IV. 238–239. Farishtah holds that Násir-ud-dín’s murder of his father is not proved. He adds (Pers. Text, II. 515) that Násir-ud-dín was at Dhár where he had gone to quell the rebellion of the nobles when the news of Ghiás-ud-dín’s death reached him. He argues that as a parricide cannot flourish more than a year after his father’s murder, and as Násir-ud-dín ruled for years after that event, he could not have killed his father. ↑
