empress Noorjahan:-'the light of the world',who ruled the Emperor Jahangir and his mighty Empire of Hindustan with absolute power,was one of the illustrious women ruler of India.No gift of nature seemed to be wanting in her.Endowed with rich Persian beauty,her soft features lighted up a spirit by vivacity and superbness.She was intensely fashionable and charitable.When in power she ruled everything.When out of power she abstained relegiously from all activities oflife.Even her enemies admitted that difficulties vanished at her touch.
Noorjahan was the ornament of the imperial court,an adviser and a supporter of her husband in all his ardous affairs of state.She exercised a tremendous influence,which was felt in every corner of the vast Indian Empire.With the death of Jahangir in 1628 her reign came to an end.
