Answer:

Jalaluddin Muhammad Akbar (ruled 1556-1605) was one of the best, wisest emperors of the Mughal dynasty in India. He always wanted to emphasized that he had been born on Indian soil and he considered India as his homeland; the Mughals were of Afghan and Uzbek origins, and Hindus looked at them as foreign occupiers.

Akbar The Great, a Muslim, was known for his policies of religious tolerance toward Hinduism, the religion of the majority of his subjects. He did two things that gained him much sympathy and endearment among Hindus: he abolished a tax that Hindus had to pay in order to worship in their temples and sacred places (he lost revenue for his army and treasury, but won an enormous political capital), and he married a Hindu princess to form an alliance with Rajputan powerful local leaders. He is still remembered for that in India, where movies and series about him and his wife Jodhaa Bai are made.
