TRANSLATION. "In this happy time the high order which is necessary to be heard came forth that 40 big'has of fallow land, capable of cultivation, allodial to the pargana of Chamari that belongs to the suba of the Panjab, according to the endorsement were bestowed as a rent-free fee upon P. P. Raj Bibi and companions. They may spend the revenues of it for their needs, being assiduous in prayer for the perpetuity of the enduring empire. The present and future magistrates, tax-gatherers, jágir-holders and króris having surveyed the stated lands and marked their boundaries should give them into their possession, and by no means allow any alteration or change. After the settlement of the boundaries and the new cultivation one should not trouble them for any demands of the Government and the levies of the court in the shape of quit-rent, taxes, and tributes, as qutlugha, presents, the rates of jaribána, zábitána, muhastilána, mahrána, dároghagána, for war and chase, the muqaddimi and qandngóyi, and the annual sequestrations. Regarding this no new order should be yearly expected and other eventual existing appointments not considered. Written on the 29th Shawwal of the 40th year since the sublime accession to the throne (viz., of Alamgir)."
On the back the text of the yádhásht-i waqi'a, dated Monday, the 13th Rabi II, of the 39th year (21st November, 1695) is given, and besides the dates of entry in the registers the names of Raj Bibi's companions, viz., Nar Bibi, Sahib Khatan, and Sharifa Bånd, each of them getting 10 big'has.
Another sanad concerning a re-investment runs :

7 In other sonada the Chaudharis (I cannot understand for what reason Bloohmann han banished this spelling into the notes of his Ain-i Akbari-edition-9.e. vol. I, p. 198, line 15, instead of putting it into the text), Qdningbís, Muqaddam And Maliks are said to have taken part and consented to this act.
. These technical terms are all fully explained in the dictionaries
I know that this last phrase also could be translated if they should have possessed something in another place berider the above raytrghal) it should not be taken notice of, but I bare preferred the above translation as more harmonizing with the contents.
Corrected from margul ma-rd according to other sanade.
