Zoroastrians Influence on the Religious Ideology of Akbar

Abstract

Akbar, a unique political and historical figure of Medieval Indian History, tried to incorporate the everlasting religious values in one religion Din I Ilahi but never forced his subordinates and subjects to join and follow his new experiment. Actually Akbar obtained the attributes of Din I Ilahi from different sources and whereas he was not politicallymotivated as Alauddin Khulji was earlier. History witnessed a tolerant and visionary emperor in Akbar who positively influenced the socio-political and religious conditions of India. In this paper I would try to emphasize the Zoroastrian influence on the Akbar religious policies which later came into light as Tauhid i Ilahi or Din i Ilahi..
