   • c. 1423, Ğiyās-ud-Dīn Jamshēd Kāšī, Mohammad Bagheri, transl., Letter to his father, quoted in “A Newly Found Letter of Al-Kashı on Scientific Life in Samarkand”:

     ‏از آنجمله پانصد کس باشند که ایشانرا در ریاضیات شروع است واکنون دوازده سال است که بندگی حضرت سلطنت پناهی کشور گشایی خلد الله ملکه بدین فن مشغول است.‎‎

     az ân jumla pânsad kas bâšand ki êšân râ dar riyâziyât šuru' ast w-aknûn dawâzdah sâl ast ki bandagî-yi hazrat-i saltanat panâhî kišvar gušâyî xallad allâhu mulkahu bad-în fann mašğûl ast.

     Among them there are five hundred persons who have begun [to study] mathematics. His Royal Majesty the World-Conqueror [lit. “the Servitude of the Presence of the Refuge of the Sultanate, Conqueror of Countries”], may God perpetuate his reign, has been engaged in this art [i.e., mathematics] for the last twelve years.
