Akbar's first three children as quoted in jehangirnama

When he arrived at the age of twenty, Providence bestowed upon him his first child, who received the name of Fautma Ban Begum, but died at the age of one year. Her mother was Beiby Pungri. By Beiby Araumbuksh he had two sons, one of whom received the name of Hussun, and the other Hsseyne. The latter was given to nurse to Bereijah Begum, the mother of Assuf Khaun, but lived only eighteen days; the other was consigned to the care of Zeyne Khaun Koukah, and did not live the tenth day.

Weren't hussain and Hassan are twins and kids of Jodha and Akbar? As many ppl said Jodha had twins but they died in few days from their birth. Apparently this happened before Salim was born.

Isn't it so?

As per jehangirnama they are not jodha's kids

They were a cocubbine Aram Baksh's children and were given to take care to Asaf Khan's(not nur jahan's brother) mom and Zain Khan Koka's wife care but did not live more than 2-3 weeks

I have never read any other historical book where it said that they were Jodha's children

As far as i know Jodha had only one child that is Jehangir none of other Akbar's children were born to her alive or dead.

And anyways Jehangir who is writing so many details about each step siblings would have spent more reams waxing more eloquent praises and details on his own siblings born of his mother if he ever had any.isn't it???
