94. Shaikh Hasan and 95. Shaikh Bíná.
Shaikh Hasan of Pánípat, and his son Shaikh Bíná were renowned surgeons. Instead of ‘Bíná’, the MSS. have various readings. The Maásir has Phaniyá, the Ṭabaqát Bhaniyá.
Shaikh Bíná's son is the well known Shaikh Hasan, or Hassú, who under Jahángír rose to great honours, and received the title of Muqarrab Khán. Father and son, in the 41st year, succeeded in curing a bad wound which Akbar had received from a buck at a deer-fight. Hassú was physician to Prince Salím, who was much attached to him. After his accession, he was made a commander of 5000 and governor of Gujrát, in which capacity he came in contact with the English at Súrat. He gave no satisfaction, and was recalled. In the 13th year (1027), he was made governor of Bihár, and in the 16th, governor of A´grah. In the beginning of Sháhjahán's reign, he was pensioned off, and received Parganah Kairánah, his birthplace, as jágír. He constructed a mausoleum near the tomb of the renowned Saint Sharafuddín of Pánípat, and died at the age of ninety. In Kairánah he built many edifices, and laid out a beautiful garden with an immense tank. He obtained excellent fruit trees from all parts of India, and the Kairánah mangoes, according to the Maásir, have since been famous in Dihlí.
Muqarrab's son, Rizqullah, was a doctor under Sháhjahán, and a commander of 800. Aurangzeb made him a Khán. He died in the 10th year of Aurangzeb.
Muqarrab's adopted son is Masíhá i Kairánawí. His real name was Sa'dullah. He was a poet, and composed an epic on the story of Sítá, Rámchandra's wife.

He was Muftí of Dihlí, and died more than ninety years old in 984. He was a Kambú.
102. Mauláná 'Abdul Qádir.
He was the pupil of Shaikh Hámid Qádirí (buried at Hámidpúr, near Multán), and was at enmity with his own younger brother Shaikh Músá regarding the right of succession. 'Abdul Qádir used to say the nafl-prayers* in the audience-hall of Fathpúr Síkrí, and when asked by Akbar to say them at home, he said, “My king, this is not your kingdom, that you should pass orders.” Akbar called him a fool, and cancelled his grant of land, whereupon 'Abdul Qádir went back to Uchh. Shaikh Músá did better; he joined the army, and became a commander of 500. Vide below Nos. 109, 131.
The Mir-át mentions a Mauláná 'Abdul Qádir of Sirhind as one of the most learned of Akbar's age.

This is the title of Mauláná 'Abdullah of Sulṭánpúr, author of the 'Açmat i Anbiyá, and a commentary to the Shamáil unnabí. Humáyún gave him the titles of Makhdúm ul Mulk and Shaikh ul Islám. He was a bigoted Sunní, and looked upon Abulfazl from the beginning as a dangerous man. He died in 990 in Gujrát after his return from Makkah.
105. Mauláná 'Abdussalám.
The Ṭabaqát says, he lived at Láhor and was a learned man.
The Mir-át mentions another Mauláná 'Abdussalám of Láhor, who was a great lawyer (faqíh) and wrote a commentary to Baizáwí. He died more than ninety years old in the first year of Sháhjahán's reign.
106. Qází Çadruddín.
Qází Çadruddín Quraishí 'Abbásí of Jálindhar was the pupil of Makhdúm ul Mulk (No. 104). He was proverbial for his memory. He was attached to dervishes and held so broad views, that he was looked upon by common people as a heretic. When the learned were driven from court, he was sent as Qází to Bhroṉch, where he died. His son, Shaikh Muhammad, succeeded him. His family remained in Gujrát.
