استدن • (estadan) (present stem استان (estân))

1. Archaic form of ستدن (setadan)
   • Abulfazl Bayhaqi, edited by Ali-Akbar Fayyaz, Bayhaqi's History, page 91:

     تا بدان جایگاه که گفت: «از بونصر سیصد هزار دینار بتوان استد» سلطان گفت: «بونصر را این زرِ بسیار نیست، و از کجا استد؟ و اگر هستی، کفایت او ما را به از این مال. حدیثِ وی کوتاه باید کرد که همداستان نیستم که نیز حدیث او کنید»

     to the extent that he [Bu Sahl Zawzani] said: "Three thousand dinars could be seized from Bu Nasr." Sultan said: "Bu Nasr does not own this amount of gold – and how to seize? And [even] if he does have, his competence worth this money. [This] talking about him must be stopped, because I do not agree that you talk about him anymore."
