Question

who is aurangzeb. explain it

Answer 1

Aurangzeb was the third son of the emperor Shah Jahān and Mumtāz Maḥal(for whom the Taj Mahal was built). He grew up as a serious-minded and devout youth, wedded to the Muslim orthodoxy of the day and free from the royal Mughal traits of sensuality and drunkenness. He showed signs of military and administrative ability early; these qualities, combined with a taste for power, brought him into rivalry with his eldest brother, the brilliant and volatile Dārā Shikōh, who was designated by their father as his successor to the throne. From 1636 Aurangzeb held a number of important appointments, in all of which he distinguished himself. He commanded troops against the Uzbeks and the Persians with distinction (1646–47) and, as viceroy of the Deccanprovinces in two terms (1636–44, 1654–58), reduced the two Muslim Deccan kingdoms to near-subjection.
