to marry itself a non muslim woman has to convert else they cannot marry a muslim man. its same rule in Christians too, the cannot marry another religion guy or girl till they convert its not legal marriage no social sanction or religious sanction

pls read some history books in library its all given in detail

no dear

salima never married nur jahan to jehangir

after her husband sher afghan death nur jahan and her daughter ladli were maids in waiting for ruqaiah from 1506 till 1511. Jehangir saw her in meena bazaar and married her. Salima has nothing to do with their marriage. I read jehangirnama from british library the original translation.

Indian historians do not want to show Rajput princess forced to marry for political reason and Akbar married for political reason. So they say jodha married for love etc it was purely to save amer she married no love its just luck she gave bbirth to salim the first living son of Akbar else some other wife would be famous as his lover because she gave birth to first son. In jehangirnama and shah nama both official ones both emperors say ruqaiah was most loved of Akbar wife. In jehangirnama and shah nama and many other books it says that Akbar was 8-10 months in battle field till age of 35 years. He was a ruthless warrior like ghenghis khan, alexander the great etc till mid 30s he would have no time for love in real sense. How else he can make such big empire through war and political marriages only.

As far as I know and what I read Jodha did not convert, other Rajput Princess did.

Please do not state its by luck Jodha gave birth to Salim. Without God's blessings nothing can happen. Jodha was destined to be MUZ and the fact that Akbar and Jodha had many kids proves their love for each other. I have heard about Salima begum also helping out Akbar with administartion along with JODHA, but not about Rukaiya...

It was her love for Akbar she chose to be buried instead of Chita mein jalana .

Again your faacts are wrong...Akbar spent most of his time running the empire and not in battle feilds...In the most glorious days his empire could not invade south ...and neither did he fight so many battles...he had generals to do it...

And I agree with you Jo was married to him for political purposes but later he fell in love with her ...and serial has shown that only...but to say that Jo was important to him only becoz she gave birth to heir is just trying to malingn her...

I dont know what you have against Jodha and why you always try to put her down? any way each to his own...
