A detailed account of the seventh invasion of Ahmad Shah,
with the desecration of the holy Sikh temple, Darbar Sahib, of
Amritsar, the battles with the Sikhs and notices of the various
Sikh sardars and the territories occupied by them.
The account of the bravery, the moral character and the
military tactics of the Sikhs, as given in chapter XLI, is highly
creditable to the Sikhs of those days.
Qazi Nur Muhammad, the author, having accompanied
the Beluchi division of the expeditionary forces of Ahmad Shah
Abdali during this invasion, was present in the army throughout
the conflicts and was an eye-witness of the events and other things
recorded by him. His account, therefore is a very important
historical evidence.
