Akbar. No one else even qualifies.
True but i am enthralled by Aurangzeb . as a ruler he might have been harsh but he was very pious in his personal life. , when i visited his grave in Aurangabad i was impressed by his humility .
His tomb was in the open and there was a small tomb to its right (of his guru), he wanted all the rain which washed his gurus tomb to then flow over his tomb .
have u ever seen muslim women in functions?they have heaps of make up on their face.it is the legacy of muslim rulers.i have never seen any hindu woman doing any make up apart from powder or fair and lovely.i donno abt north india but in south hindu women dont do make up where as muslims do(ofcourse now a days some upper middle class girls are doing make up
He led Mughal Empire to its demise. Akbar by far was the strongest. Pakistanis love Aurangzeb because he killed a huge number of Hindus...Aurangzeb Alamgir , by far the Greatest
He led Mughal Empire to its demise. Akbar by far was the strongest. Pakistanis love Aurangzeb because he killed a huge number of Hindus something that gives Pakistanis an orgasm..
Intresting point to note is Akbar when started his rule he was only 13 years old.
Nou (Nine) Ratan (Intellectuals ) were played key role in his success.
The Mughal ruler Akbar, despite his illiteracy, was a great lover of the artists and intellectuals. His passion for knowledge and interest in learning from great minds led him to attract men of genius to his court, known as the nine courtiers of King Akbar or Navratnas.
* Abul Fazl (1551-1602) was the chronicler of Akbar’s rule. He authored the biographical Akbarnama. Abul Fazl documented the history meticulously, over seven years, in three volumes, the third volume is known as the Ain-i-Akbari and a Persian translation of the Bible.[1] He was also the brother of Faizi, the poet laureate of emperor Akbar.
* Faizi (1547-1595) was Abul Fazl’s brother. He was a poet who composed beautiful poetry father was Mubarak Nagori, a scholar in the philosophy and literature of Greece as well as in Islamic theology.
* Miyan Tansen was a singer for King Akbar, born as Tanna Mishra, a Hindu, in 1520, he was a poet himself. He learnt music from Swami Haridas and later from Hazrat Muhammad Ghaus. He was a court musician with the prince of Mewar and later was recruited by Akbar as his court musician. Tansen became a legendary name in India and was the composer of many classical ragas. He was an extraordinarily gifted vocalist, known for a large number of compositions, and also an instrumentalist who popularized and improved the rabab (of Central Asian origin). He was buried in Gwalior, where a tomb has been constructed for him. It is unclear if Tansen converted to Islam.
* Raja Birbal (1528-1583) was a poor Hindu Brahmin who was appointed to the court of Akbar for his intelligence, and became the court jester. Born by the name Maheshdas, he was conferred the name Raja Birbal by the Emperor. Birbal's duties in Akbar's court were mostly military and administrative but he was also a very close friend of the emperor, who liked Birbal most for his wit and humor. There are many witty stories of exchanges and interactions between the monarch and his minister that are popular today. Birbal was also a poet and his collections under the pen name "Brahma” are preserved in Bharatpur Museum. Raja Birbal died in battle, attempting to quell unrest amongst Afghani tribes in Northwest India.
* Raja Todar Mal was Akbar’s finance minister, who from 1560 onwards overhauled the revenue system in the kingdom. He introduced standard weights and measurements, revenue districts and officers. His systematic approach to revenue collection became a model for the future Mughals as well as the British. Raja Todar Mal was also a warrior who assisted Akbar in controlling the Afghan rebels in Bengal. Todar Mal had developed his expertise in Sher Shah's employment. In 1582, Akbar bestowed on the raja the title Diwan-I-Ashraf.
* Raja Man Singh, was the Kacchwaha Rajah of Amber, a state later known as Jaipur. He was a trusted general in Akbar's army and was the grandson of Akbar’s father-in-law. His family had been inducted into Mughal hierarchy as amirs (nobles). Raja Man Singh was the formost ablest among Akbar's military commanders and assisted Akbar in many fronts including holding off advancing Hakim (Akbar’s half-brother, a governor of Kabul) in Lahore. He was also the Mughal viceroy of Afghanistan, led campaigns in Bihar, Orissa, Deccan and was also the viceroy of Bengal.
* Abdul Rahim Khan-I-Khana, a poet was the son of Akbar’s trusted protector and caretaker when he was a teenager, Bairam Khan. After Bairam Khan was murdered treacherously, his wife became the second wife of Akbar. He is most known for his Hindi couplets and his books on Astrology.[2] The village of Khankhana, named after him, is located in the Nawanshahr district of the state of Punjab in northwest India.
* Fakir Aziao-Din who was a mystic, and an advisor. Akbar regarded his advice in high esteem.
* Mullah Do Piaza, an advisor to Akbar who was known for his intelligence.
Our leaders should learn lesson from Akbar's strategy of novratan
Humility ? You can't judge a man's humility by looking at his grave. You judge it by looking at his behavior with those beneath him when he was in a position of power over them. And the less said about Aurangzeb in that respect, the better. His treatment of his subjects particularly non-muslims is famous.
Hmm... didn't really pay much attention to this before but yes, Muslim women do tend to put more make up than the average Non-muslim woman. I am sure there are exceptions though.
Why is that ?
It seems you have never met Muslims, you even admit that did not know about Muslims until you came on the forums reveals plenty that you have been living in a cave.
No offense, the first place to visit Indian muslims would be Gujrat, then Kashmir, then Hyderabad, then Utter Pardesh, then Mumbai...to see the condition of "Indian muslims"
I thought "ignorance is bliss" comment no longer applies...but man am i wrong!!
