The Mahdia and its leaders plundered the wealth of its men, took their women captive, and drove away from them a large number of people, whom they sent to the Mahdi and his successors. And Sayyid Bak was captured. Muhammad Khalid wanted to kill him, but he refrained from that and exiled him to Kordofan. He remained in exile until Muhammad Khalid left Darfur, and he was released.

The issue of the ammunition depot in Darfur is mentioned. In the garrison of Dar, there was a junior officer named Muhammad Sulayman, who was one of the slaves who rose through the ranks under arms. After the fall of El Fasher, Muhammad Khalid appointed him commander of the Sudanese soldiers whom he had taken from the government and placed an Egyptian officer named Muhammad Effendi El Laqqani in charge of guarding the ammunition depot. Muhammad Khalid dismissed him from his post, along with ten Egyptian non-commissioned officers who worked in the ammunition depot, filling cartridges and other items. Muhammad Sulayman aspired to Muhammad El Laqqani's position, wanting to hold both positions. He instructed one of his men to throw a spark of fire into the ammunition depot while the men were busy with their work. The gunpowder ignited, bombs were thrown, and Muhammad El Laqqani and five of his men were burned. Five of them survived because they had left the ammunition depot to attend to their needs. Muhammad Sulayman entered and told Muhammad Khalid, "I advised you to avoid El Laqqani and all his Egyptian men. They burned the ammunition depot themselves to harm us. As for the men who were outside the ammunition depot, they threw the spark of fire. They were captured and beheaded because they were Egyptians. May God have mercy on them all."
