Description

This book, Religion and Culture under Mughals is a humble effort to highlight the religious and cultural synthesis developed by the Mughal emperors in the diverse society of the Indian subcontinent. The Mughal Empire, which flourished from the early sixteenth to the early eighteenth centuries in the Indian subcontinent, played a significant role in shaping the religious and cultural landscape. Akbar implemented policies of religious inclusivity, seeking to integrate different religious communities into the imperial structure. While Babur was fond of natural beauty, learning and literature and warfare strategy, the other Mughal emperors, especially Akbar, Jahangir and Shah Jahan, were patrons of the arts and learning. Aurangzeb was also an empire-builder and encouraged harmony by appointing many Hindu Rajas to higher positions in the empire. However, his period remained disturbed due to the emergence of many local chiefs and some religious misunderstandings. The Mughal rulers left behind a legacy of magnificent buildings, including the Taj Mahal, Agra Fort and Red Fort in Delhi. They encouraged the translation of religious texts, the creation of illustrated manuscripts and the development of a rich cultural heritage.
