Taj Mahal was built in memory of Mumtaz Mahal the wife of Shah Jahan who died in child birth. Also to contain the tombs of Akbar and shah Jahan's wife.

Totally false. It is a British Propaganda. Shah Jehan had no wife named Taj Mahal. The queen who was buried next to him was Arjumand Zamani. Akber`s tomb is separate ablout 20 miles from Agra in Sekandra. Shah Jehan never built Taj Mahal, he glot hold of a Hindu Fort and renovated the temple as Mosque as the Muslims always do.
