Answer:

Love

Step-by-step explanation:

  • The history of this mausoleum lends a soul to its magnificence: a soul filled with love, loss and remorse.
  • If it had not been for love, the world would have been deprived of this magnificent building. An example of how deeply a man loved his wife, that even after she remained present only in the form of memory, he was sure that he would never leave him.
  • The man was the Mughal emperor Shah Jahan, and his love was the Persian Princess Mumtaz Mahal.
  • He was 14 when he met Mumtaz and fell in love with her. Five years later, in 1612, they married.
