The fourth wife was famed for her beauty: she had been previously married to Abul Wásí. The fifth wife, mother of Jahángír, was a Jodhpur princess, Jodh Báei. As mother of the heir apparent, she held the first place in the harem. The sixth, seventh, and eighth wives were Muhammadans. In the matter of domestic legislation Akbar paid considerable attention to the mode of collecting revenue.

We very often have Muhammadans also, and, they are our most eager and bitter opponents.

In the end, says Barros, the Adil Shah, secretly fearful of Asada Khan's duplicity, made a treaty of peace with the Raya, by which the Muhammadans retained Raichur but gave up some other territory.

His teaching would be speedily discerned in its antagonism to the genius of the place, and would ensure his speedy expulsion, if not his death. To the present hour no missionary is allowed to plant his foot in Mecca, or Medina, the sacred cities of the Muhammadans.

It was in the village of Kawmu’ṣ-Ṣa‘áyidih, in the district of Beba, of the province of Beni Suef in Upper Egypt, that, as a result of the religious fanaticism which the formation of a Bahá’í assembly had kindled in the breast of the headman of that village, and of the grave accusations made by him to both the District Police Officer and the Governor of the provinceaccusations which aroused the Muḥammadans to such a pitch of excitement as to cause them to perpetrate shameful acts against their victimsthat action was initiated by the notary of the village, in his capacity as a religious plaintiff authorized by the Ministry of Justice, against three Bahá’í residents of that village, demanding that their Muslim wives be divorced from them on the grounds that their husbands had abandoned Islám after their legal marriage as Muslims.

Murtaza 'Ali, the son-in-law of the prophet; one of his surnames is Mushkil-kusha, or " the remover of difficulties." The Saiyids, who pretend to be descended from 'Ali, wear green dresses, which is a sacred colour among the Muhammadans. The phrase char-zanu ho-baithna, signifies "to sit down with the legs crossed in front as our tailors do when at work."

According to another inscription, King Harihara early in his reign expelled the Muhammadans from Goa; and the last inscription of his reign at present discovered mentions that one Bachanna Udaiyar was then governor of that place. The king's wife, or one of his principal wives, was Malladevi, or Mallambika.
