Mariam-uz-Zamani

Mariam-uz-ZamaniMariam-uz-Zamani (Persian: مریم الزمانی‎, lit. 'Mary of the Age';[2] c. 1542 – 19 May 1623) was a wife of the third Mughal emperor, Akbar. In subsequent centuries, she has been referred to with several other names, including Hira Kunwari,[3] Harkha Bai[4] and Jodha Bai

Born a Hindu Rajput princess[6] in 1542, Mariam-uz-Zamani was offered in marriage to Akbar by her father, Raja Bharmal of Amber. The wedding, held in Sambhar, was a political one and served as a sign of submission of her father to the Mughals.[4][7] Her marriage to Akbar led to a gradual shift in the latter's religious and social policies. She is widely regarded in modern Indian historiography as exemplifying both Akbar's and the Mughals' tolerance of religious differences and their inclusive policies within an expanding multi-ethnic and multi-denominational empire.[7]

She was the mother of Akbar's eldest-surviving son and eventual successor, Jahangir.

  • Mariam-uz-Zamani was born in 1542 as the daughter of Raja Bharmal of Amber by his wife Rani Champavati, daughter of Rao Ganga Solanki.[9][10][11] Her paternal grandparents were Raja Prithviraj Singh I and Apurva Devi, a daughter of Rao Lunkaran of Bikaner.[12]
  • Mariam-uz-Zamani was born in 1542 as the daughter of Raja Bharmal of Amber by his wife Rani Champavati, daughter of Rao Ganga Solanki.[9][10][11] Her paternal grandparents were Raja Prithviraj Singh I and Apurva Devi, a daughter of Rao Lunkaran of Bikaner.[12]Her birthname is unknown.[7] 'Mariam-uz-Zamani' was in fact a title bestowed on her by Akbar on the occasion of their son Jahangir's birth.[13] This was the name by which she was referred to in contemporary Mughal chronicles, including Jahangir's autobiography, the Tuzk-e-Jahangiri.[14] Later historical accounts give several suggestions for her birth name. In an 18th-century genealogy of her clan (the Kachwahas) for example, she is referred to as 'Harkhan Champavati'.[7] Other names provided by various sources include Harkha Bai,[4] Jiya Rani, Maanmati, Harika, and Shahi-Bai. However, the name by which she is most popularly known in modern-times is 'Jodha Bai'.[5]

However, the name by which she is most popularly known in modern-times is 'Jodha Bai'.[5]The name 'Jodha Bai' was first used in relation to Mariam-uz-Zamani in James Tod's Annals and Antiquities of Rajasthan, a colonialist history written in the early 19th century.[15] This naming appears to have been an error, given that it implies a relation with the royal family of Jodhpur, rather than that with the Rajas of Amber.[16] Further to this, there is no historical record of Akbar having married a princess of Jodhpur at all.[17] Instead, it is believed that 'Jodha Bai' in fact refers to the wife of Jahangir, Jagat Gosain daughter of Raja Udai Singh of Jodhpur.[18]
