In 1532 the monastery at Debre Libanos had been torched, enveloped in flames due to the forces of Ahmad Gran.[28] 'Ěnbāqom in that year sent a letter in Arabic addressed to Ahmad Gran, writing that he should stop destroying churches and monasteries (whose libraries held the literary history of the people), and that he should stop killing priests and monks. Ahmad Gran evidently replied in effect that as a Muslim he respected the Jewish Torah and the Christian Gospels, so he would not burn churches and would limit the killing to those who resist.[29] 'Ěnbāqom book in Geez Anqasa Amin grew out of this letter to Ahmad Gran.[30][31]
