The majority of the sources are found in Tarikh i Kashmir IV (History of Kashmir), completed in 1620-21 by Haidar Malik Chadurah, a medieval author and an administrator of Kashmir.[5] Information regarding the Chak rulers including Husain are found in Mughal books like Akbarnama, Ain i Akbari and Tuzk i Jahangiri.[6] Other works include Tarikh i Kashmir I, completed in 1579 by Sayyid Ali while Tarikh i Kashmir II was written in 1590 by an unknown author. Tarikh i Kashmir III was completed during the times of Jahangir. It presents a contemporary version of the rest of the books.[5][7] Baharistan i Shahi ("Spring Orchard of the Royalty"), the finest of Medieval Kashmiri literature on the Sultanate, was written in 1614 as a Persian chronicle of medieval Kashmir.[5] Other histories of Kashmir such as Tarikh i Hassan, Waqiat i Kashmir and Tazkira Mashaikhin i Kashmir are eighteenth and nineteenth century abridgements of the above works.
