Answer 1

Abu al-Fazl was the historian at the court of Akbar. He wrote a detailed history of Akbar’s reign which is known as Akbarnama. A’in-i Akbari is a part of it and deals with the rules and regulations of different administrative departments of the state.

In A’in-i Akbari, Abu al-Fazl explains the Mughal concept of kingship. Royalty, according to him, is the highest dignity in the eye of God. It is a light which emanates from Him. Abu al-Fazl calls royalty, “the divine light” — this light creates in king paternal love for his subjects and increases his trust in God.
