No. Taj Mahal is not a palace, but a sort of shrine. In there, inside of two unburied coffins, lie the remains of the Munghal emperor Shah Jahan and his wife, Mumtaz Mahal, for whom the mausoleum was originally made.
Shah Jahan, the Mughal emperor who commissioned the Taj Mahal, lived in various palaces and forts throughout his reign. His primary residence was in the Red Fort in Delhi, while he also spent time in Agra Fort, where the Taj Mahal is located. In his later years, he was imprisoned by his son Aurangzeb in the Agra Fort.
Taj Mahal is a pre-Islamic fort. The construction and architecture reveals that. What is now Taj Mahal was a part of a huge building. Mongols when they overrun India were uncivilized nomadic barbarians never seen any buildings but used to live in tents ( they still do, go to Uzbeckistan and see). They could never built Taj Mahal. Taj Mahal was a temple of Shiva. Mongol emperor Shahjehan took it back from Jagat Singh and reconstructed as a Mosque, but with a wrong direction (facing East rather than West). Shah Jehan had no wife named Mumtaj Mahal or Taj Mahal. The name of the quuen who was buried next to him was named Arjumand Zamani.
Yes. Akbar knew Shah Jahan because he was born during the reign of Akbar

No. It's a grave.
Taj Mahal is a part of the pre-Muslim fort built by the Rajput Kings; it was not built by any Muslim but a Muslim king called Shah Jehan took it from a Rajput king Jagat Singh and remodelled it by putting two red mosques on two sides of a white temple of Siva. The whitle marble building faces East, according to Hindu religion. There are motifs of flowers, plants which are prohibited in Islamic building. On the top dome there is lotus, cocoanut, trident, all Hindu symbol. Like most buildings Muslims who came to India as barbarian Arab, Mongol, Turks could only convert the buildings into Mosques as they did also in Istanbul. Mongols or Mughals are still nomadic uncivilized people ( before they came into contact with the Russians). They live in tent even today. How can they think of Taj Mahal?

The Shah used to live in the Iranian capital of Teheran. However, when he was forced to abdicate, he went into exile in Egypt where he died soon after. His son and the remainder of his family live in the United States, without the royal title.
