Those days, through a shahi firman certain persons were appointed to perform some specific tasks. |
The first firman made its way slowly from Constantinople to Athens, but events had overtaken it by the time it arrived. |
I gave him two of my pamphlets with the firman, and we took our leave. |
Lord Elgin had obtained a firman, or Ottoman permission from the local authorities, but only after the payment of significant bribes. |
But then your firman will have furnished us with a Turkish soldier for our protection. |
The firman of the Sultan contained also a guarantee for the status quo in the sanctuaries. |
