Humayun's Early Life and HIs Coronation

Early Life and Throne

Nasiruddin Muhammad was the eldest son of Humayun Babar. He was born in March, 1508 AD in the fort of Kabul. Humayun's mother's name was Mahm Begum. Maham Begum was the daughter of Hussain Baikra of Herat. Babur married Maham Begum in 1506 AD. He believed Maham Begum the most. Babar had three more sons, in which Kamran and Asakari were born Gulurkh Begum and Hindal Jaan from the heart of Agachi.

Initially Babar's life itself was endangered. So in childhood, he was unable to manage Humayun's education properly. But after returning to Kabul, Babar arranged for the education of initiation of Humayun. Babar had appointed two teachers. They were Maulana Christ-Al-Din Ruhullah and Maulana Illyas. Humayun became a good knowledge of Turkish, Arabic and Persian languages in a few days under the protection of both the qualified professors. Humayun's interest in literature, mathematics, astrology, philosophy, astronomy and painting was more. On India, Humayun acquired the knowledge of Hindi language.

Practical Life

Babur was not satisfied with intellectual development only. He wanted Humayun to be trained in practical life too. This was the reason that at the age of 21, he was made a sub-seat of Badakhshan.
In Babar's Indian campaign, Humayun took help from a bad soldier with a military detachment.
In the field of Panipat and Khanwa, he fought with Babar with shoulder and shoulder.


In keeping with Humayun's military capability, Babar appointed him again as Governor of Badakhshan. Badkhashan remained Humayun from 1527 AD to 1529 AD. Humayun failed to suppress this seed in the middle.
So Babar called him Agra after seeing his falling health.
Humayun was appointed as the vassal of Sambhal after a few days in Agra. Humayun got sick in Sambhal At the same time he was brought to Agra. Upon his illness, Babar, after looking at his death, convened a meeting of all the chieftains and declared Humayun his succession.

Early Difficulties Of Humayun

The new Mughal Empire stood on the brink of the volcano. Due to the internal rebellion, the embarrassment of the empire, the gluttony of the relatives and dissatisfaction between the soldiers, Delhi's cushion proved to be the crown of thorns instead of the flowers of the flowers.
To control the heterogeneous situation was the need of a skilled, diplomatic, qualified military ruler and a wealthy ruler of genius. But unfortunately, due to the personal flaws of Humayun, the condition of the Mughal Empire became increasingly intimidated.

Struggle to Protect Succession

Despite versatile opposition, Humayun was active in protecting the prestige of the Mughal Empire after the accession. In the initial stage, luck accompanied Humayun. He wanted to expand the Mughal empire. Therefore, he has adopted a policy of aggression in order to establish the right to strategic targets.

Attack on Kalinga

Kalinger was in Bundelkhand. Kalinger was an important fort from Siddhi Rishta. The ruler of Kalinjar wanted to take over the Pratapurdur Kalpa. After the five or six months of the throne, Humayun invaded Kalinger in 1531 AD. On the fort of Kalinjar, the army of Mughal army remained for several months. Meanwhile Mahmood Lodi took control of Jaunpur and its adjoining area.

In such a situation, Humayun made an agreement with the ruler of Kalinga. King Pratapudrud of Kalinjar accepted the submission of Humayun. Humayun received twelve mind gold as a gift. Kalinger's kingdom was not destroyed. Prataparudu became the enemy of Humayun and he started giving support to the Afghans. Thus, there was a mistake of the campaign campaigner Humayun.

Struggle against Mahmood Lodi

Mahmood Lodi organized the Afghan and took control of Jaunpur and surrounding areas. Humayun lifted the circle of Kalinjar for the purpose of suppressing Mahmud Lodi and returned to Agra and took possession of Jaunpur Oar with a large army. After this incident Mahmood Lodi did not get the courage to attack against the Mughal empire.

Rebellion of Kamran

Seeing Humayun being entangled with the Afghans and the Mirans, Kamran decided to fulfill his ambitions. He handed over the administration of Afghanistan to Afghanistan, Punjab, Multan and Lahore. Humayun was forced to recognize the rights of Kamran on Punjab, Multan and Lahore.

Chunar cordon

The fort of Chunar was in the possession of Sher Khan. Lion Khan was a skilled diplomat. He did not want to destroy his military power by making a direct fight with the Mughals. So he compromised with Humayun. Humayun also wanted to suppress the ruler of Gujarat, Bahadur Shah. So when the initiative was taken by Sher Khan, Humayun accepted it for the treaty.

The fort of Chunar was handed over to Lion Khan. Sher Khan accepted the subjugation of the Mughals and sent 500 Afghans to carry his son Khutab Khan to Humayun's service. Humayun Sher Khan did not understand the trick Sher Khan succeeded in conquering Bengal by winning his power. Humayun forgot by handing the fort of Chunar to Lion Khan....
