Mariam-uz-Zamani is thought to be the Akbar's caucasian wife (possibly Armenian) can someone verify this? --Vyzasatya 17:49, 3 February 2006 (UTC)

Vivek 09:08, 22 April 2007 (UTC) Could someone confirm whether Jahangir was the son of Mariam-uz-Zamani, or of Jodhabai? I believe the two are different people.

I think yes its the Armenian wife. If Jodhabai and her are NOT the same.

No, Mariam-uz-Zamani was not Armenian. She was the daughter of Raja Bhar Mal of Amer. "Mariam-uz-Zamani" was a title conferred on her,laso known as "Jodha Bai". Jahangir was indeed her son.

--Malaiya 01:43, 24 June 2007 (UTC) Jodhabai was name of wife of Jahengir who was sister of Man Singh. jehangir was son of Harka bai who was given name of Mariam-uz-Zamani by Akbar after marriage. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 59.182.127.52 (talk) 17:51, 22 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Heera Kunwar alias Mariam-uz-Zamani

She was indeed wife of Akbar and mother of prince Salim (later Jahangir) Akbar was a tolerent emperor.One should say he was not an orthodox Muslim.Some historians even doubt he was really Muslim or not? During his later yers he propheted a religion named Din-E-Elahi, which means "religion of the God".It must be brought in mind that no Muslim can propagate another religion.He himself followed some of Hindu rituals, like Jharoka Darshan, Tuladan,Tilak on his forehead,and Mala Jap.He had wives from Muslims,Hindus,and Christians.Not only Heera Kunwar but everyone of them was free to follow her religion in the royal palace.Some orthodox persons trying to mould the historical facts in their interest.This should not be allowed.The palace of Mariam-uz-Zamani is still present at Fatehpur Sikri, where Jahangir was born.The place of her worship is still present there.It is very evident from history that she followed her religion during her life time.What happenned after that is immeterial.If some persons do not agree with this theory they should come forward with actual facts which can be proved.
