In the praise of Prince Dara Shukoh
Humayun’s tomb
He was the eldest son and heir-apparent of the Shah Jahan
He was a favored successor by king and sister Jahanara
But was defeated and later killed by brother Aurangzeb
In a struggle for the imperial Mughal throne of India
Dara Shukoh was born at Taragarh Fort in Ajmer in 1615
And his mother was Mumtaz Mahal and he was popular
When he was 12, Jahangir died and Shah Jehan succeed
Dara’s siblings are Jahanara, Aurangzeb, and 4 others
In 1633, Dara married Nadira daughter of Sultan Parvez
By all accounts, it was an extremely happy marriage
Both Dara and Nadira were devoted each other much
The couple had 8 children, including Sulaiman and others
Dara Shukoh was appointed by the king as his heir
Dara was a follower of Sarmad Kashani and Mian Mir
Whom he was introduced to by Badakhshi as per books
His book Sakinatal Auliya I am presenting in English
Hafeez is praying Allah for this book and for Dara
Hafeez is a servant of sheikh and praying for its success
Among his 6 books, this is Dara’s famed book of his time
