Aurangzeb was the sixth Mughal emperor who ruled from 1658 until his death in 1707. As a devout Muslim, he imposed strict Islamic policies like reintroducing the jizya tax on non-Muslims and destroying Hindu temples. His military campaigns expanded the empire but overextended its resources. Aurangzeb lost support from Hindus and faced rebellions across the empire. By the time of his death, the once powerful Mughal Empire was greatly weakened.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
2. Introduction
Under the Mughals, India was the heart of a great Islamic
empire and a prolific center of Islamic culture and
learning.
Dynasty was the greatest, richest and longest lasting Muslim
dynasty to rule India.
The Great Mughal Emperors were:
Babur (1526-1530) The First of the Mughals
Humayun (1530-1556) The Luckless Leader
Akbar (1556-1605) The Great
Jahangir (1605-1627) The Paragon of Stability
Shah Jahan (1627-1658) The Master Builder
Aurangzeb (1658-1707) The Intolerant
3. Aurangzeb Aurangzeb (1618-1707), was an emperor who ruled what is now
India and Pakistan from 1658 until his death. During his reign as
monarch of the Mughal Empire, he conquered several states in
southern India.
Aurangzeb, a devout Muslim, tried to make all his people follow
the doctrines of Islam, the Muslim religion. He differed from
Akbar in consciously tolerating Hindus rather than treating them
as equals. He placed special taxes on Hindus and destroyed Hindu
temples and images, such as the destruction of Kashi Vishwanath
temple and erection of a mosque in its place. Aurangzeb also
destroyed many works of art because he feared that they might
be worshipped as idols.
Aurangzeb was born in Dohad, near Ahmadabad. In a struggle for
the throne, Aurangzeb murdered his three other brothers,
including the crown prince Dara Shukoh, and deposed Shah Jahan,
the reigning emperor, to seize the throne for himself. Shah Jahan
died a prisoner in the fortress of Agra. Aurangzeb's reign was one
of the longest in the history of the Mughal dynasty. His rebellion
and acts of cruelty toward his family at first aroused public
4. Aurangzeb
Aurangzeb over expanded the empire and strained
his resources.
Large sums of money and manpower were lost.
He lost the support of the Hindu people.
The over expansion of his empire weakened his
administration.
Aurangzeb died in 1707
His son Bahadur Shah succeeded him. Bahadur
was so old by the time he ascended the throne, he
only managed to live a few more years. But at
this point in time, the government was so unstable
and so weak, the empire become an easy target of
invasion and exploitation, first by the Persians,
and then by the British.
The death of Aurangzeb and the short reign of his
5. Aurangzeb
The new emperor, Aurangzeb, was a strict Muslim. To begin with, he followed the policy of making peace with the non-Muslim peoples he conquered and
bringing them into the imperial service. But the policy broke down, and in the latter part of his reign, Aurangzeb imposed a much stricter form of Islamic
rule. In 1679, he reintroduced the jiziya, a poll tax on non-Muslims. Militarily, Aurangzeb set out to protect his northern borders and subdue the
independent Muslim kingdoms in the Deccan and south India. By 1690, the whole of the Indian subcontinent lay within the Mughal Empire.
Aurangzeb won swift political and military success, through his abilities as a soldier and politician. But his conquests brought him great trouble toward the
end of his reign. The wars were expensive and the military officers were rewarded for their service by the grant of new jagirs. The jagir-holders taxed the
peasants mercilessly, causing many to flee from the villages. Much land was left uncultivated as a result.
Aurangzeb's reign was troubled by developments in west and south India. As early as the 1660's, Shivaji, a Hindu chief of western India, had built up a
strong private army and begun to raid Mughal towns and cities. He captured and sacked the great port of Surat. Shivaji's followers, known as the Marathas,
were very good cavalry fighters. They took all the strong fortresses from the Mughal governors. Aurangzeb had to fight the Marathas, and many other local
chiefs in the south, who were constantly rebelling against Mughal rule and trying to re-establish their independence.
