'''(Rabia) Dilras Banu Begum''' ({{IPA|ur|dɪlrəs ˈbaːnuː ˈbeːgəm}}; {{circa}} 1622 – 8 October 1657) was the first wife and chief consort of Emperor [[Aurangzeb]] after Marriage she changed her name from Rabia to Dilras ,<ref>{{cite book|title=The Mughal World: Life in India's Last Golden Age|url=https://archive.org/details/mughalworldlifei00eral|url-access=limited|last= Eraly|first= Abraham|year=2007| publisher=Penguin Books India|page=[https://archive.org/details/mughalworldlifei00eral/page/n157 147]|isbn=9780143102625 }}</ref><ref>{{cite book|title=Parties and politics at the Mughal Court, 1707-1740|last=Chandra|first= Satish |year=2002|page=50|publisher=[[Oxford University Press]]}}</ref><ref name=Koch>{{cite book|last=Koch|first=Ebba|title=King of the world: the Padshahnama|year=1997|publisher=Azimuth Ed|page=104}}</ref><ref name=Nath>{{cite book|last=Nath|first=Renuka|title=Notable Mughal and Hindu women in the 16th and 17th centuries A.D.|year=1990|publisher=Inter-India Publ.|location=New Delhi|page=148}}</ref> the sixth [[Mughal emperor]].<ref>{{cite encyclopedia|title=Aurangzeb|url=http://www.britannica.com/EBchecked/topic/43255/Aurangzeb|encyclopedia=[[Encyclopædia Britannica]]|access-date=18 January 2013}}</ref> She is also known by her posthumous title, Rabia-ud-Durrani ("[[Rabia of Basra|Rabia]] of the Age"). The [[Bibi Ka Maqbara]] in [[Aurangabad, Maharashtra|Aurangabad]], which bears a striking resemblance to the [[Taj Mahal]] (the mausoleum of Aurangzeb's mother [[Mumtaz Mahal]]), was commissioned by her husband to act as her final resting place.<ref name=Eraly008>{{cite book|title=The Mughal world: India's tainted paradise|last=Eraly|first= Abraham |year= 2008| publisher=[[Weidenfeld & Nicolson]]|page=376}}</ref>

Dilras was a member of the [[Safavid dynasty]] of [[Persia]] and was the daughter of [[Mirza Badi-uz-Zaman Safavi]] (titled Shahnawaz Khan), a descendant of [[Ismail I|Shah Ismail I]], who served as the viceroy of [[Gujarat]]. She married Prince Muhi-ud-din (later known as 'Aurangzeb' upon his accession) in 1637 and bore him five children, including: [[Muhammad Azam Shah]] (the [[heir apparent]] anointed by Aurangzeb),<ref>{{cite book|last=Sir Jadunath Sarkar|title=Anecdotes of Aurangzib|year=1925|publisher=M.C.

Dilras died possibly of [[puerperal fever]] in 1657, a month after giving birth to her fifth child, Muhammad Akbar,<ref name="Krynicki, p. 3">[[#refKrynicki|Krynicki]], p. 3</ref> and just a year before her husband ascended the throne after a fratricidal war of succession.

==Family and lineage==
(Rabia) Dilras Banu Begum was a member of the prominent [[Safavid dynasty]],<ref>{{cite web|last=Yust|first=Walter|title=Encyclopædia Britannica, Volume 2|year=1954|page=694}}</ref> the ruling dynasty of [[Persia]] and one of its most significant ruling dynasties.

==Marriage to Aurangzeb==
[[File:Female musicians wedding of Aurangzeb.jpg|150px|thumbnail|Female musicians at the wedding of Dilras Begum and Aurangzeb.]]

In February 1637,<ref>{{cite book|last1=Lal|first1=Muni|title=Aurangzeb|date=1988|publisher=Vikas Pub.

[u.a.]|isbn=9781576073445|page=[https://archive.org/details/groundwarfareint00sand/page/n108 74]|edition=1.udg.}}</ref> The marriage proposal was put forth by Shah Jahan and was accepted by Dilras' father which led to their betrothal. Aurangzeb was lovingly called by the Emperor from the [[Deccan Plateau|Deccan]], where he was campaigning, and arrived at [[Agra]] on 15 April 1637 for his wedding.<ref name=Sarkar1912/> The marriage took place a few weeks later on 8 May 1637 at Agra amidst great rejoicings.<ref>{{cite book|last=Sir Jadunath Sarkar|title=A short history of Aurangzib, 1618-1707|year=1979|publisher=[[Orient Longman]]|page=409}}</ref><ref>{{cite book|last1=Mehta|first1=Jl|title=Advanced Study in the History of Medieval India|date=1986|publisher=Sterling Publishers Pvt.

As decided by the imperial court astrologers, their marriage ceremony was held four hours before dawn, amid lavish and grand celebrations and took place at Shahnawaz Khan's mansion.<ref name="Eraly07" /> The grandeur of the celebrations are described by chronicler [[Khafi Khan]], "The burst of fireworks transformed the earth into another sky," and the charms of the singers and dancers would've been the envy "even of [[Venus (mythology)|Venus]]."<ref name="Krynicki, p. 1"/> The ''[[Qadi|qazi]]'' married the couple in the Emperor's presence, and the ''[[Mahr|mehr]]'' was fixed at 400,000 rupees. After the wedding, a reception (''[[walima]]'') was held on 14 May at Aurangzeb's mansion, where Emperor Shah Jahan gave wedding gifts to ''[[amir]]s''.<ref name=Eraly07>{{cite book|title=The Mughal World: Life in India's Last Golden Age|url=https://archive.org/details/mughalworldlifei00eral|url-access=limited|last =Eraly|first= Abraham|year=2007| publisher=Penguin Books India|page=[https://archive.org/details/mughalworldlifei00eral/page/n163 153]|isbn=9780143102625 }}</ref>

The newly married couple spent more than three happy months at Agra with the Emperor before taking their leave for the Deccan on 4 September 1637, where Aurangzeb was serving as [[viceroy]].<ref name=Sarkar1912/> During their stay at Agra, Dilras had become pregnant with Aurangzeb's first child: the gifted poet Princess [[Zeb-un-Nissa]]. She was born nine months after their marriage on 15 February 1638 at [[Daulatabad, Maharashtra|Daulatabad]], Deccan,<ref>{{cite book|last=Sir Jadunath Sarkar|title=Studies in Aurangzib's reign: (being Studies in Mughal India, first series)|year=1933|publisher=Orient Longman|page=90}}</ref> and was her father's favourite daughter.<ref name="Krynicki, p. 73"/> Over the next nineteen years, the imperial couple would have four more children, all of whom were favoured by Aurangzeb above the rest of his children from his secondary wives. As Aurangzeb's chief consort, Dilras wielded considerable influence over him and ruled his [[harem]].<ref name="Krynicki, p. 92">[[#refKrynicki|Krynicki]], p. 92</ref> She was amongst the highest ranked figures at the Mughal court unlike her husband's secondary wives, who were very unpopular at court.<ref name=proc/> However, Dilras did not take part in court politics and in administrative affairs as her husband did not seem to have allowed his wives to interfere in such matters. But, it is said that it is true that Muhi-ud-din rules over the provinces where he was acting as Na'ib (viceroy), but in the house of this Dilras Banu who rules over him.<ref name="Krynicki, p. 92"/>

Dilras' known physical and personal attributes describe her as being beautiful, vivacious and charming.<ref>{{cite book|last=Robinson|first=Annemarie Schimmel|title=The Empire of the Great Mughals: History, Art and Culture|year=2005|publisher=Sang-E-Meel Pub.|location=Lahore|isbn=9781861891853|page=[https://archive.org/details/empireofgreatmug00anne/page/57 57]|edition=Revised|url-access=registration|url=https://archive.org/details/empireofgreatmug00anne/page/57}}</ref> Pertaining to her character, she seems to have been a proud and self-willed woman and her husband stood in some awe of her.<ref name=Sarkar1912>{{cite book|last=Sir Jadunath Sarkar|title=Volume 1 of History of Aurangzib: Mainly Based on Persian Sources|year=1912|publisher=M.C. Sarkar and Sons|pages=58–61}}</ref> She was reputed to have been short-tempered, and was, says Aurangzeb, a woman of "extreme imperiousness, but to the end of her life I continued to love her and never once did I wound her feelings."<ref>{{cite book|last=Eraly|first=Abraham|title=The Mughal Throne: The Saga Of India's Great Emperors|year=2004|publisher=Orion Publishing Group|page=395}}</ref> Dilras' proud nature did not create problems in her marriage as Aurangzeb always acted humbly with his haughty and imperious wife.<ref name="Krynicki, p. 84">[[#refKrynicki|Krynicki]], p. 84</ref> From all accounts it appears that Dilras shared several character traits with her husband. Both of them were strong-willed, pious and comparatively indifferent to the normal scheme of material values.<ref>{{cite book|last=Lal|first=Muni|title=Aurangzeb|year=1988|publisher=Vikas Pub. House|page=60}}</ref>

[[File:Darbarscene.jpg|150px|thumbnail|Dilras' eldest son, Azam Shah, stands before his father, Aurangzeb.]]

However, whereas Aurangzeb was a staunch [[Sunni]], Dilras Begum was a devout [[Shia]].<ref name="Krynicki, p. 54">[[#refKrynicki|Krynicki]], p. 54</ref> Safavid Shias grew in Aurangzeb's reign became even more influential than ever in the Mughal empire and their military leaders led almost all of Aurangzeb's successful military campaigns.<ref name="Krynicki, p. 55">[[#refKrynicki|Krynicki]], p. 55</ref>

Aurangzeb's other marriages to his two secondary wives were meaningless.<ref name="Hansen162">{{cite book |last1=Hansen |first1=Waldemar |title=The Peacock Throne: The Drama of Mogul India |date=1986 |publisher=Motilal Banarsidass |isbn=9788120802254 |page=162 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=AV--abKg9GEC&q=alienated |language=en}}</ref> As a result, these two inferior wives, though they produced four more children for him, remained isolated from their husband.<ref name="Hansen162" /> The status and authority of being the imperial consort was reserved for Dilras only.<ref name=Sarkar1912/><ref>{{cite book|last=Saqi Must'ad Khan, Sir Jadunath Sarkar|title=Maāsir-i-Alamgiri: A History of the Emperor Aurangzib-ʻĀlamgir|year=1947|publisher=Royal Asiatic Society of Bengal|page=10}}</ref> She retained her influence over her husband till the end of her life and always remained his favourite as well as his chief consort.<ref>{{cite book |last1=Commissariat |first1=Mānekshāh Sorābshāh |title=A History of Gujarat: Mughal period, from 1573 to 1758 |date=1957 |publisher=Longmans, Green & Company, Limited |page=151 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=BFZuAAAAMAAJ&q=dilras+chief+consort |language=en}}</ref> Even after her untimely death, her position at court, in the palace, and in her husband's life was not taken by either of his secondary wives.<ref name="Krynicki, p. 103">[[#refKrynicki|Krynicki]], p. 103</ref> Thus, Dilras was never replaced and no empress ruled Aurangzeb's palace.<ref name="Krynicki, p. 103"/>

===Issue===
Dilras' initial pregnancies took place at intervals of at least four years. Professor Annie Krieger-Krynicki states that "Aurangzeb may not have wanted to put a strain on her fragile health by imposing too many pregnancies on her frequently, as Shah Jahan, fatally, had done with Mumtaz Mahal."<ref>[[#refKrynicki|Krynicki]], p. 41</ref> During the course of their twenty years of marriage, the imperial couple became parents of five children:

*[[Shahzadi]] [[Zeb-un-Nissa]] [[Begum]] (15 February 1638 – 26 May 1702) died unmarried.
*Shahzadi [[Zinat-un-Nissa]] Begum (5 October 1643 – 7 May 1721) acted as the First Lady ([[Padshah Begum]]) of the empire during Aurangzeb's reign, she died unmarried.
*Shahzadi [[Zubdat-un-Nissa]] Begum (2 September 1651 – 17 February 1707) married her [[first cousin]], Prince [[Sipihr Shikoh|Siphir Shikoh]], son of her uncle, [[Dara Shikoh]]; had issue.<ref>{{cite book|last=Sir Jadunath Sarkar|title=Volume 3 of History of Aurangzib: Mainly Based on Persian Sources|year=1981|publisher=South Asian Publishers|page=39}}</ref>
*[[Shah]]zada [[Muhammad Azam Shah]] ''Shahi Ali Jah'' (28 June 1653 – 8 June 1707), briefly succeeded his father as Mughal emperor, married his first cousin, Princess [[Jahanzeb Begum|Jahanzeb Banu]], a daughter of Dara Shikoh; had issue.
*Shahzada [[Sultan Muhammad Akbar]] (11 September 1657 – 31 March 1706) married his cousin, Princess Salima, a granddaughter of Dara Shikoh; had issue.

==Death and aftermath==
[[File:Biwi ka Maqbara.JPG|thumb|[[Bibi Ka Maqbara]] in [[Aurangabad, Maharashtra|Aurangabad]]]]
On 11 September 1657, Dilras gave birth to her fifth child, Muhammad Akbar,<ref name=Sarkar1912/> following which she possibly suffered from [[puerperal fever]],<ref name="Krynicki, p. 3"/> due to complications caused by the delivery and died on 8 October 1657.<ref name=Sarkar1912/> Upon her death, Aurangzeb's pain was extreme, and their eldest son, the four-year-old Prince Azam, was so grieved that he had a [[nervous breakdown]].<ref name="Krynicki, p. 84"/> It became Dilras' eldest daughter, Princess Zeb-un-Nissa's responsibility to take charge of her newborn brother. Zeb-un-Nissa doted on her brother, and at the same time, Aurangzeb greatly indulged his motherless son and the prince soon became his best-loved son.<ref name=Eraly>{{cite book|title=Emperors of the Peacock Throne: The Saga of the Great Mughals|url=https://archive.org/details/emperorspeacockt00eral|url-access=limited|last=Eraly|first= Abraham |year=2000| publisher=[[Penguin Books]] India|page=[https://archive.org/details/emperorspeacockt00eral/page/n423 424]|isbn=9780141001432 }}</ref>

===Bibi Ka Maqbara===
In 1660, three years after Dilras' death, Aurangzeb commissioned a mausoleum at Aurangabad to be her final resting place, known as [[Bibi Ka Maqbara]] ("Tomb of the Lady").<ref>{{cite book|last=Lach|first=Donald F.|title=Asia in the Making of Europe: Volume III, the Century of Advance|year=1998|publisher=University of Chicago Press|isbn=9780226467672|page=738|edition=Pbk.|author2=Kley, Edwin J. Van}}</ref> It is notable that Aurangzeb never raised monumental edifices during his half-a-century reign, but made just one exception, that is, to build the mausoleum of his wife. Here, Dilras was buried under the [[posthumous title]] of 'Rabia-ud-Daurani' ("Rabia of the Age"). Her title was given in honour after [[Rabia of Basra]].{{Fact|date=November 2024}} Rabia of Basra lived in the 9th century CE and is considered a saint due to her piety. The Bibi Ka Maqbara bears a striking resemblance to the [[Taj Mahal]], the mausoleum of Dilras' mother-in-law, Empress Mumtaz Mahal, who herself died in childbirth.<ref name="Kumar2014">{{cite journal |last=Kumar |first=Anant |date=January–June 2014 |title=Monument of Love or Symbol of Maternal Death: The Story Behind the Taj Mahal |url=http://www.casereportswomenshealth.com/article/S2214-9112(14)00003-4/pdf |journal=Case Reports in Women's Health |publisher=Elsevier |volume=1 |pages=4–7 |doi=10.1016/j.crwh.2014.07.001 |access-date=21 December 2015|doi-access=free }}</ref>
[[File:Tomb of Dilras Banu.jpg|thumb|Cenotaph of Dilras Banu inside Bibi Ka Maqbara]]
Bibi Ka Maqbara was the largest structure that Aurangzeb had to his credit and is considered to be a symbol of his conjugal fidelity.

In the following years, her tomb was repaired by her son, Azam Shah, under Aurangzeb's orders.<ref name=Sarkar1912/> Aurangzeb, himself, is buried a few kilometers away from her mausoleum in [[Khuldabad]].<ref>{{cite book|last1=Ahmed|first1=Farooqui Salma|title=A Comprehensive History of Medieval India: From Twelfth to the Mid-Eighteenth Century|date=2011|publisher=Pearson Education India|isbn=9788131732021|page=264|language=en}}</ref>
