856 AH, We 18/10:
Tawashī amir Zayn al-Dīn Khushqadam al-Rūmī al-Yashbakī, the muqaddam mamālīk sulṭānīya, died in the night of Wednesday the 18th of Shawwāl, over 70 years old. This Khusqadam was originally a khadīm of my father. He bought him in the niyāba of Aleppo before 800 and presented him to al-Malik al-Ẓāhir Barqūq among a group of mamluks and khuddām. al-Ẓāhir granted him to amir Fāris al-Ḥājib. After the death of Fāris al-Ḥājib in 802 he was owned by Yashbak al-Shaʿbānī al-ʾAtābakī, who manumitted him. He remained in his service until Yashbak was killed, then he returned again to my father. He stayed until my father died. Then he became of the jamdārīya of al-Malik al-Muʾayyad Shaykh and continued like that until he was entrusted the nāʾib taqdimat mamālīk sulṭānīya after the death of al-Muʾayyad, which he remained for years until al-Malik al-ʿAshraf Barsbāy transferred him to the taqdimat mamālik sulṭānīya after the death of ʾIftikhārī al-Dīn Yaqūt al-ʾArghūn Shāwī in 833.
