Explanation:

To be fair, Persian was not the official language of just the Mughal Empire. Before the Mughals, it was also the language, for example, of the Sultans of Burhanpur, the Sultans of Bijapur, the Bahmani Sultan, the Bengali Sultan & the Berari Sultan. It was the language of much of the large Islamic world - the Ottoman Turks and Uzbegs favored it.

That said, Mughals took Persian to another level, unseen in the India before them or, for that matter, anywhere else in the world. Persian literary output from Mughal India exceeded what Persian the rest of the world produced in the same period.

For comparison purposes, the Ottomans started with Persian as their language, but by 15th century had made Turkish the language of their court, with Persian only as its prime literary language. In 16th century India, the regional and Delhi Sultans were slowly turning vernacular. The Qutb Shahis of Golconda used Dakhani, Telugu as well as Persian. The Lodis of Delhi used Hindawi as well as Persian. The Bengali Sultans used Bengali as well as Persian.

But not the Mughals! They made Persian the sole administrative language of the empire: not just of the royal court but even at the lower rungs of administration.

Their ancestor Timur favored Persian, but by the time of his great-great-great-grand-son Babur, Timurids were speaking Chaghatai Turkish ( that language is extinct today ), also the language of his famous Babarnama. But his own daughter, the equally Turkish Gulbadan Begum, wrote the next nama Humayun nama in Persian. What had changed in 30 years?

Return of Humayun from exile from Safavid Iran in 1555 AD with a large coterie of Iranian nobles is commonly credited to have turned the clock in favor of the Persian language in India.

Answer:

Since Persian was the court language of the Mughals and Pakistanis are inheritors and descendants of the Mughals, shouldn't Persian be the official language of Pakistan?

Pakistanis are not descendants of Mughals.

Pakistanis are Aryans (Mostly Sindhis and Punjabis; and migrants from other states from India), who have converted to Islam from Hinduism.

All Pakistanis are descendants of Aryan Hindus.

Handful of Mughals that came into the Indian Subcontinent got merged into Indian race and have lost their Mughal identity
