Truth Regarding Ruqayah-Akbar-Maryam(Jodha) - Page 4

I was only giving answers to your questions and doubts. In your post i didn't find any comparisons. 😕 I thought you were debating. 😉 Pratap never had time to love anyone. You can say he loved Mewar the most but yeah he liked his son Amar Singh more out of his all sons so we can predict ajabde was very lovable to him.

I never read that post. I just wanted to tell all the forum members that ruqayah was not at all most important for akbar and certainly not more important than jodha. Salima Sultan surely held great place in heart of Akbar. She may have been equivalent of maryam in his life maybe above her. who knows but salima was more loved and respected by akbar than ruqayah.

What nonsense. Valide Sultan was a term used only in the Ottoman Empire it has nothing to do with the Mughal Empire. Secondly, Ruqaiya's personal wealth was far more than any of Akbar's other wives, her father Hindal Mirza (a Mughal prince) who was Emperor Babur's youngest son, owned one third portion of India and numerous jagirs which were all given to Akbar after Hindal's death, that says it all about the magnitude of Ruqaiya's personal wealth. And let's not forget her high pedigree as a Mughal princess, she was the granddaughter of Emperor Babur and was Akbar's equal in birth and status. Thirdly, Ruqaiya was Akbar's only chief consort until his death as stated by Jahangir himself in the Jahangirnama, it's clearly stated there that Ruqaiya was Akbar's sole chief wife. Now don't tell me that the Jahangirnama is also fake. Ruqaiya and Salima, who were both Akbar's cousins were closest to him and that's a fact.  

And I don't even wanna get started on the kids. The twins (Hasan and Husain) were born to a Muslim wife of Akbar not Jodha, Heera or whoever. Heera's notability arises out of the fact that that she was Salim's mother and that's it. Akbar had married numerous Rajput women for political alliances and his marriage with Heera was just a political alliance. He married dozens of women after her. People shouldn't degrade historical figures like Ruqaiya by spreading false information. Please don't reply to this because I only wanted to state facts and don't want an argument.

Btw this is MP forum not JA forum so I don't think anyone wants to discuss JA here when Jodha's not even a part of the show. There's a whole separate JA forum for that.

I don't have time now but I did read about Ruqaiya and her importance in Akbar's harem. She was not that irrelevant either.

There are many reasons why Akbar changed. One of them is interest in spirituality. Only in today's films or shows I have seen they try to show that Rajputs changed him!

That painting is of Akbar and MUZ? Or Jahangir Nur Jahan?

Frankly I have never come across mention of any other Mughal queen in history books except Nur Jahan. The only influential one.

All others are shown only now in daily soaps where drama takes precedence over important events in history. 

Never read about MP's queens either. 

This is not a JA like show. I don't like unnecessary coverage of so called personal life and concocted romance. And definitely Akbar's personal life doesn't matter and shouldn't get too much focus in an MP show at all. 

Much of details of MP's life have been ignored to focus on Akbar here. 

Akbar and Ruqaiya were married by Humayun's wish because he dearly loved his brother, Hindal Mirza. There was no political gain in it because Hindal was already dead when their marriage took place.

hmmm...okay...i forgot this part so won't say anything. i guess i need to go through humayun's part again. 😆
