'Mariam-uz-Zamani' was a
Rajput princess.
She was born as 'Rajkumari Hira Kunwari', the eldest daughter of Raja Bihar Mal, Raja of
Amber, India. She was the senior wife of
Akbar, married in 1562, and mother of
Jahangir. Her tomb, built in 1611 AD, is on the
Delhi-Agra National Highway, near
Fatehpur Sikri. A mosque in
Lahore,
Pakistan was built in her honour,
Mosque of Mariyam Zamani Begum.
She was never known as
Jodhabai. The use of the name Jodhabi appears to have been a 19th century mistake
