Arǧah and Šīrūyah were the two sons of a king of Rum who lived in ancient times, and whose name was Malikšāh. Arǧah, who was the eldest, was designated by his father to succeed him, and to exercise sovereignty during the rest of his life. On his death, Arǧah ascended the throne and the great people of his court advised him to give some prerogative to Šīrūyah, to prevent him from revolting against him and taking away his power. Arǧah preferred to have Šīrūyah taken from the city of Roum, during one night, and he had him thrown into a ditch, where he expected his brother would die of hunger and thirst. But these criminal plans were foiled by the will of Allah and Šīrūyah miraculously regained his freedom. Incipit: بسم الله الرحمان الرحیم وبه نستعین. اما راویان اخبار وناقلان اثار وطوطیان شکر کشن شیرین کفتار ومحدثان روایت می کننند که در زمان پیشین یاد شاه بود که او را ملک شاه روم میکفتند. Explicit: ...وباقی هشت ما نیم دیکر را باتفاق همدیکر در کلستان ارم در ایوان بارکان حضرت سلیمان علیه السلام با ماه رویان وپیرساوان وسروقد ووحشی غزلان پیر مردند وعش مکردند باق والدعا انشاط الله بمراد برسند آمین یار ب العالمین یا خیر الناصرین یا ارحم الراحیمین. تمام شد کتاب Scanning from a substitute document: R 26294. |
