The Tuzuk-i-Jahangiri, Volume 1 of 2

Note 46 — Feast of the Second New Year.

Alexander Rogers translation

The words seem to me to yield 1066, but if we read pajs͟hanba instead of panjs͟hanba we get 1016, which is the Hijra date of Jahāngīr’s entry into Kabul and corresponds to 4th June, 1607. A marginal note on I.O.M. 305 makes the chronogram clear by writing rūz-i-panchanba hiz͟hdah-i-Ṣafar, thereby getting rid of the mīm and the yā of hīz͟hdaham and bringing out the figures 1016. ↑
