The effect was magical, the enemy thinking that they had been betrayed, or forestalled, or had perchance fallen into an ambush, and that opposed to them was the whole strength of the Guides. In the darkness a panic set in, and the whole force broke and fled, their redoubted and sainted leader, the Mullah Abdullah, showing the way. Afterwards Colonel Sir Francis Jenkins, K.C.B.
And if there are children, you shall bring them up." The mullah, who knew better than to keep his ruler waiting, had come in, and they were forthwith married, solemnly and irrevocably, according to the rites and ceremonies of the Mohammedan Church, as practised in the kingdom of Dunkhot.
He therefore directed his officials to cherish and honour him. Thus he retained a powerful weapon to be used when desirable. Whether by instigation or from personal motives, the Hadda Mullah has long been a bitter foe to the British power. In 1895 he sent the fighting men of the Mohmands to resist the Chitral Relief Force.
He says you should cleanse yourself from intercourse with the world, not drink with soldiers, not eat with a Tartar. 'Who says all that? asked Olenin. 'Why, our teacher!

And now the guide made no objection but leaned on his long gun and waited. The charger proved to be making the trouble the horse that King had exchanged with the jezailchi in the Khyber. The terrified brute was refusing to enter the passage, and all the men, including Ismail and the mullah, were shoving, or else tugging at the reins.
I saw your helmet when you came up from the mullah by the temple just enough to be sure that you were all right. D' you care?"
At first the plain was a network of holes, the habitations of the Jir Ad , a field rat with ruddy back and white belly, the Mullah or Parson, a smooth-skinned lizard, and the Dabagalla, a ground squirrel with a brilliant and glossy coat.
Set down she must surrender Khinjan Caves or I swear by Allah I will have thee tortured with fire and thorns and her, too, when the time comes!"
