Aurangzeb, the Mughal emperor who ruled India from 1658 to 1707, is a figure of great historical significance. Known for his strict adherence to Islamic principles and policies, he left an indelible mark on Indian history. During his reign, Aurangzeb implemented several reforms that aimed to strengthen the empire's control over its vast territories. One such policy was the imposition of the "rozah, " or fasting during Ramadan, which became mandatory for all Muslims in India. This religious decree showcased Aurangzeb's commitment to Islam and his desire to enforce it throughout his kingdom. While Aurangzeb focused on consolidating power within India, other empires were flourishing around the world. The French colonial empire under Louis XV witnessed significant growth between 1715 and 1774. This era saw France establish colonies across different continents, expanding their influence globally. In terms of family dynamics, Aurangzeb had a complex relationship with his brother Dara Shikoh. Their rivalry culminated in Dara's execution by order in 1659. This event marked a turning point in Indian history as it solidified Aurangzeb's position as the sole ruler of the Mughal Empire. Aurangzeb's image has been captured through various artistic mediums over time. Engravings depict him as Cha Aurengzebe ye great mogul while holding a flywhisk - symbols of power and authority during that period. Paintings like "A Gathering of Princes" showcase grand celebrations held during important events such as marriages within the royal family. The Great Mosque Benares Varanasi stands today as a testament to this emperor's architectural legacy. Built on the site where an ancient Hindu temple once stood, it represents both cultural diversity and religious tolerance prevalent during that era. Despite being known for his strict rule, Aurangzeb's reign was not without controversy.
