Excerpt from A History of the Great Moghuls: Or a History of the Badshahate of Delhi, From 1398 A. D. To 1739, With an Introduction Concerning the Mongols and Moghuls of Central Asia
As to the spelling of Eastern names, not writing for the specialist but for the general public I have spelt them as they are ordinarily spelt, though in certain instances, as for instance in the name of the Prophet and his followers, I have preferred the spelling which most clearly suggests the sound. My readers will note that I write of the Mongols when speaking of the races of Central Asia and of the Moghuls when I write of the Emperors at Delhi and of their followers.
