learned to respect and preserve all religions and as it became evident upon inquiry and after thorough investigation that all those mountains and places of worship really belong to the Jain Setambari religion from a long space of time; therefore we comply with his request, and grant to and bestow upon Heer bijoy Soor, Acharj of the Jain Setambury religioun, the mountain of Sidhachal, the mountain of Girnar, the mountain of Tarunga, the mountain of Keshrianath, and the mountain of Aboo lying in the country of Gujarat, and the five mountains of Rajgir, and the mountain of Samed shikhur, allas Pareshnath situated in the country of Bengal and all the places of worship and pilgrimage below the mountains and whereever they may be any places of worship appertaininig to the Jain Setambary religioun throughout our empire. It is proper that he should perform his devotion with his ease of mind.
It may be obvious that although these mountains and places of worship and pilgrimage the places of the Jains Setambari religion have been given to Heer bijoy Soor, yet in reality they belong to the Jain Setambari religion.
Let the orders of his everlasting firman shine like the Sun and the Moon amongst the followers of the Jain Setambari religion so long as the Sun, the illuminator of the Universe, continues to impart light and brightness to the day, and the Moon remains to give splendour and beauty to the night. Let no one offer any opposition or raise any objection to the same, and let nobody slaughter an animal on, below or about the mountains, and in the places of worship and pilgrimage. Let the orders of this Firman, obeyed by all the world, be acted upon and carried out, and let none depart from the same, or demand a new sanad. Dated, the 7th of the month Urdi Bihisht, corresponding with the month Rabeool-Awal of the thirty seventh year of the auspicious reign."
