Question

What was the name of that son of Jahangir who opposed Jahangir and met Guru Arjan Dev Ji at Goindwal? ​

Answer 1

The name of Son was Khusrau Mirza

• Khusrau Mirza was the eldest son of Jahangir and was born in Lahore.

• The death of Emperor Akbar led to a successional war between his son, Prince Salim, and his grandson, Prince Khusrau.

• In the year 1606, Mirza and his experienced horsemen voluntarily left Agra on the convenient pretext of typically visiting the magnificent tomb of Akbar in nearby Sikandra.  

• He positively received the divine blessings of Guru Arjan Dev when Khusrau reached Taran Taran near Amritsar.

• His father defeated him and blinded him. Therefore, Prince Salim became Emperor and took the name Jahangir.
