who was noor jahan? why is she famous?
Answers
Answer:
Empress Nur Jahan was the most powerful woman in 17th Century India. She played an unprecedented role in running the vast Mughal empire.
Nur Jahan possessed great physical strength and courage. She often went on hunting tours with her husband, and was known for her marksmanship and boldness in hunting ferocious tigers. She is reported to have slain four tigers with six bullets during one hunt
According to Sir Syed Ahmad Khan, this feat inspired a poet to declaim a spontaneous couplet in her honor
Nur Jahan's courage, bravery and administrative skills would prove invaluable during her regency as she defended the Empire's borders in her husband's absence and navigated family feuds, rebel uprisings, and a war of succession brought on by the failure of Jahangir to name an heir before he died on 28 October 1627
