Question

write short note on humayun

Answer 1

After Babur’s death, his son and successor Humayun ascended the throne of Mughal Empire. He lacked the military talent and political wisdom of his father.

Immediately after his accession, Humayun was confronted with a number of enemies like Bahadur Shah of Gujarat, Sher Khan (also known as Sher Shah Suri) of Bihar. Finally he was ousted by Sher Khan.



Humayun fled to Persia and took political shelter there. He, however, recovered his position in Delhi in 1555 following the disintegration of the Pathans. But, as ill luck would have it, he died in 1556 in an accident in his library.

Answer 2

Answer:

Humayun divided his inheritance according to the will of his father. His brothers were each given a province. The ambitions of his brother Mirza Kamran weakened Humayun’s cause against Afghan competitors. Sher Khan defeated Humayun at Chausa (1539) and Kanauj (1540), forcing him to flee to Iran. In Iran Humayun received help from the Safavid Shah. He recaptured Delhi in 1555 but died the next year after an accident in this building.
