How many daughters did akbar the great have?
Akbar had 36 wives and over 300 women in his Harem. His 3 major wives were Ruqaiyya Sultan Begum (Muslim; his cousin; married at the age of 9 and his most esteemed wife), Salima Sultan Begum (Muslim; the widow of his advisor, Bairam Khan) and Heera Kunwari/Harkha Bai (Hindu; misnamed as Jodha Bai; she bore his son and successor Jahangir). In addition to this, two facts must be made clear that: 1. "Jodha Bai" was NOT the name of Akbar's Hindu wife. It was actually the name of Jahangir's Hindu wife a.ka. Taj Bibi Bilqis Makani (maiden name Jagat Gosain), princess of Jodhpur (hence the name 'Jodha'). Many people confuse the two names and believe Jodha was the name of Akbar's Hindu wife. 2. Akbar did NOT have a Christian wife. "Mariam/Maryam-uz-Zamani" was the name of Akbar's Hindu wife, after she gave birth to Jahangir. The name Mariam-uz-Zamani means 'Mary of the Age'. As the term 'Mariam' resembles the Christian names like Maria, Mary etc, hence people get confused that Akbar had a Christian wife.
