Abstract
So far we had the advantage of having with us the Memoirs – the touchstone for checking
Khwāju’s statements, Bābur died on Monday the 5th of Jumādi al-Awwal 937 H/ Dec. 26,
1530. But even long before that, since 1520 in fact, when he passed through Bājaur on
way to India and brought some refractory Bājaur tribes to order, his focus of attention
had shifted to the conquest of India; consequently, he tells us nothing about the frontier
tribes. Therefore we have necessarily to depend upon Khwāju and Akhūnd Darwezā for
the rest of the story regarding Malik Aḥmad’s achievements.
