Key Points

  • This question matches Mughal emperors with their sons.
  • (a) Babar → (3) Kamran. Kamran Mirza was Babur's son and Humayun's half-brother, who governed Kabul and Kandahar and repeatedly rebelled against Humayun.
  • (b) Akbar → (1) Salim. Prince Salim succeeded Akbar in 1605 and took the title Jahangir, meaning 'conqueror of the world'.
  • (c) Shah Jahan → (4) Murad. Murad Baksh was the youngest of Shah Jahan's four sons — Dara Shikoh, Shah Shuja, Aurangzeb and Murad — who fought the war of succession that Aurangzeb won in 1658.
  • (d) Jahangir → (2) Khusrau. Khusrau Mirza, Jahangir's eldest son, rebelled in 1606; his revolt led to the execution of the fifth Sikh Guru, Guru Arjan Dev, for allegedly blessing him.

Exam Tip

  • the Mughal succession line — Babur, Humayun, Akbar, Jahangir, Shah Jahan, Aurangzeb — with each ruler's rebellious son attached is a compact, high-return revision unit.
