The Bābur-nāma in English (Memoirs of Bābur)

Note 2737 — SECTION III. HINDŪSTĀN (continued 5)

Annette Susannah Beveridge translation

The author, or embroiderer, of that anonymous story did not know the Bābur-nāma well, or he would not have described Bābur as a wine-drinker after 933 AH. The anecdote is parallel with Niz̤āmu’d-dīn Aḥmad’s, the one explaining why the Mīrzā was selected, the other why the dāmād was dropped.

Explore with AITake your curiosity a little further.
