Ghulam Husayn Khan's endowment, 1919

Ghulam Husayn Khan Sardar Mujallal, son of Haj Sulayman Khan Bihjat al-Dawlah, has transferred his properties near Kirman and Bam to Mirza Husayn Khan Sardar Nusrat, son of Murtaza Quli Khan Vakil al-Mulk, in exchange for some crystal candy. The condition is that Mirza Husayn Khan endows these properties after Ghulam Husayn Khan’s death. Nine hundred and thirty tumans is the annual budget to cover the costs of hiring people for reading the Qurʼan and rawzah, repairs, cleaning the tomb in Najaf, and expenses of coffee, sugar cubes, tobacco, charcoal, water pipes, and lamps. Aman Allah, son of Ghulam Husayn Khan, will become the custodian of the endowment if he reaches adulthood, otherwise Mirza Husayn Khan becomes the custodian.
