The Khan, in his position at the head of the legions, cried out with one voice: "We have our master, Muhammad Bey, and we will not accept anyone after him to be our support." At that time, Ibrahim Khoja Bahar Ayya Al-Qabi'a, we left him and went to Muhammad Bey at the storehouses of Abu Rabwa. In Al-Dawanjib, he looked at him and denied who he was. As for Ali Bey, he went to his camp. Then the cavalry of Azaro went out until they reached Manuba. He sent his special messenger and showed him how he was going before he knew the matter.

When they approached him, they threw their rifles from one hand. One of them was hit and killed, his head split open. He was carried back to the camp. His horses were wounded and bleeding. His camp was exhausted. This was on Tuesday, the twenty-seventh of Rajab. And on the night of the second day thereafter, Ahmad Shabli and the man of the islands confirmed in his camp.
