Akbar had 4 boys...

Salim (s/o Jodha)
Murad (s/o Salima)
Daniel (s/o Jodha)
Khushru (s/o Salima)

When it was the time to announce the next king Salim rebelled against Akbar. Then the court was divided between Daniel and Salim.

But why not Salim and Murad...???

Daniel was Jodha's son that's why he was preferred by Akber or any other reason...

What do you think...???

danial was not jodha's son, he was anarkali's son. well before laughing at me, i want to tell you anarkali was indirectly salim's step mother. well not legal ofcourse. i read it on wiki but there are no historical evidences to prove it and thats why it is not accepted by majority. for source read anarkali's wiki.

Not Daniel, you're making him Christian, the real one must be spinning in his grave 😆.. Daniyaal.
There was a fight between Daaniyaal & Salim for the Mughal throne but it was pretty much indisputed that Salim would win & ascend to the throne as Shahenshaah as he was far more capable & would make a far better Emperor than Daaniyaal who spent most of his time in wine,women & song.. It is a different thing though that Salim did exactly the same thing but he was Emperor anyway.

Yes Anarkali could've been the mother but we never know do we.

Khusrau was jehangirs son.. The other two sons were with concubines.. They were not of royal blood and they died of alcoholism
The court was not divided between daniyal and Salem.. Some wanted make the grandson king..

Khusrau had also rebelled against his father.. But was blinded by his father for this.. Nur jahan has been said to cause strained relationship between father and son..

Ya Murad & Daaniyaal were sons of senior concubines & both died due to alcoholism. When they had all the luxury in the world & never needed to lift a finger for anything, forget about working, of course they'll degenerate.
Yes Khusrau was Jehangir's son & Noor Jehan has been credited with a lot of havoc! Yes she was highly opportunistic, cruel & intensely self-serving. But she was also highly skilled, intelligent, slyly charming, immensely strong & one of the most beautiful women in her times. But her beauty was a happy bonus; Jehangir loved only Noor Jehan. And he didn't love her as much for her beauty but for her skill & intelligence. They say she was the "real Emperor behind the throne". And being Emperor he had never any shortage of breathtaking faces around him. Noor Jehan's value lay in her astute & razor sharp mind & her immense ambition in wanting to rule Hindustan. She, a mere woman. And rule she did. In his reign for the last 5-10 years it was Noor who ruled while Jehangir was too drunk to move. She was the one who garnered income from all the holdings across vast Mughal India. She issued edicts & laws in her name, she had the Mughal stamp with her in the Haram which by law, had to be stamped on every rule, edict, basically on every Farmaan in the country ,which meant that all of this was passed only after Noor Jehan approved of it. She regularly gave off her mind-boggling income (historians say it was 1 million rupees per year!!!! which would mean a few crores per month by today!
's standards) to orphan children & widows & she felt strongly about their cause.. Furthermore, she is the only woman in the history of India to have minted coins in her name.. Noor Jehan was not the power behind the throne. She WAS the throne!

To my mind, she is an immensely admirable woman because she had the audacity to dream & achieved her dreams!

Hey ur wrong Khusru is shahjahan ... Kusru is salim son
Kusru mother is BHAGAWANDAS daughter that is man sing sister ... Salim and manbai(daughter of BHAGAWANDAS) are married ...manbai is salim first wife
Salim is jahingir ... Jahingir son is shahjahan that is Kusru

Kusru is Akbar FAVOURITE grandson ...he gave Kusru custody to RUKAYYA as she is childless
Kusru also loved RUKAYYA more than his real mom ... Akbar FAVOURITE are salim and Kusru
And to say he lived Kusru more ...used to spend daily time with Kusru ...he himself taught Kusru sword fight n few martial arts...
