وفى يوم الأربعاء الخامس من ربيع الآخر ، ركب الأمير قرقماس ، ومعه المماليك الجلبان (وبعض
الأمراء ) وهم غريقون فى اللبس ، ووقفوا أمام بيت الأمير الكبير قرقماس الظاهرى بالرميلة ، ونزل فى
الأصطبل جماعة من المماليك الباشات ، وبعض الأمراء ، ووقع حرب عظيم جدا ، وقتل خلق ، وجرح
آخرون كثيرون ، ونزل السلطان الظاهر إلى المقعد الذى يشرف على الرميلة ، وحرض الزعر ونثر عليهم الدراهم والدنانير ، وقاتلت الزعر قتالا عظيما بالحجارة الكفيات والعصى ، فلم يزل القتال بينهم من
الضحوة الكبرى الى قريب العصر ، ثم انكسر حزب قرقماس وهرب قرقماس ولم يدر إلى أى جهة
قصد . وولى السلطان ولاية القاهرة لابن الطبلاوى عوضا عن لاجين ، وكان من جهة قرقماس.
وقتل فى هذه المعركة جكم النوروزى ، وكان قد أخذ امرة عشرة ، ولم يفرح بها ، ثم نادى السلطان أن
أى من يجئ بالغريم فله ألف دينار ، وأى من حصل من الجلبان فموجوده له ، وروحه للسلطان . وكان
يوما مشهودا.
Summary
842 AH, We 05/04:
On this day amir Qurqumās rode out with the Julbān mamlūks, and some amirs, all fully girded. They stopped in front of the house of amir kabīr Qurqumās al-Ẓāhirī in al-Rumayla. The bāshā mamlūks and some of the amirs descended from their horses, and heavy fighting occured.
People got killed, lots of others wounded. Sulṭān al-Ẓāhir descended to the pavilion, looking down on al-Rumayla. He stirred the common people up and distributed dīnārs and dirhams. The people fought a fierce fight with lots of stones and sticks.
They kept fighting each other from the early morning almost to al-ʿaṣr. Then the party of Qurqumās was defeated, Qurqumās fled, not knowing in which direction.
The sulṭān appointed Lājin al-Ṭblāwī as wālī l-Qāhira, replacing, Lājīn.
In this battle Jakam al-Nawrūzī, who just became an amir of ten, which he couldn’t realy enjoy, was killed.
Then the sulṭan announced that everyone who came with an opponent would be granted a thousand dīnār, and who could capture Julbān would be granted generously, and his soul would be for sulṭān. It was a memorable day.
