Aurangzeb--as a strict Sunni Muslim, he reversed religious toleration laws in place in the Mughal Empire.

Aurangzeb restricted both non-Muslims and Shi'a Muslims. He viewed anyone not a Sunni as a heretic. He reinstated taxes on non-Muslims and began ruling under Islamic law. Due to these changes Aurangzeb is viewed as a cruel and harsh Mughal leader.
