The Mughal Emperors

The mighty Mughal empire is stretched in between Babur (1526-1530) to Humayun (1530-1556), Akbar (1556-1605), Jahangir (1605-1628), Shahjahan (1628-1658), Aurangzeb (1658-1707), Bahadur Shah and Farooq Siyar, which was founded by Babur and strengthened by the wit and wisdom of Akbar the Great, the same empire which was given a sense of justice by Jahangir and lustre and fashion of Noorjahan which was immortalised by Shahjahan by constructing the Taj Mahal in Agra could not be retained by the unwisely and intolerant policy of Aurangzeb. All the successors of Aurangzeb were incompetent. Aurangzeb wanted to divide his kingdom amongst his three sons. But like a tradition of Mughal family, all the three started a struggle for the throne, ultimately, prince Muajjam defeated the remaining two brothers in 1707 A.D. and he ascended the throne with title of Bahadur Shah. But after a short spell of only five years, he died in Lahore in the year 1712 AD.
