Mughal Ruler Shah Jahan Married His Daughter
The Mughal king Shah Jahan, who built the Taj Mahal, married his own daughter Jahanara after Mumtaz's death because she looked like Mumtaz to Shah Jahan.
Mumtaz died on 17 June 1631 while giving birth to Shah Jahan's 14th child.
Jahanara was 17 years old at the time of Mumtaz's death and Shah Jahan had gone mad after Mumtaz's death.
Since Jahanara looked exactly like Mumtaz, Shah Jahan had married his own real daughter Jahanara in memory of Mumtaz.
Jahanara was also very upset with her father's condition, so she did not oppose the marriage.
Jahanara was the second child of Mumtaz Mahal and Shah Jahan. Jahanara was very smart and was a believer of Islam, she also had a good knowledge of governing.
Jahanara also wrote the biography of Moinuddin Chishti.
When Shah Jahan was marrying his daughter Jahanara, he was strongly opposed by the Imams and members of his Court, but then Shah Jahan had said that "anyone has the right to eat the fruit of the tree he planted".
Shah Jahan had a total of 8 marriages in which Mumtaz Mahal was the third wife.
Even after Mumtaz, Shah Jahan had 5 marriages, one of which was his daughter Jahanara and the other Mumtaz's sister Farzana.
Mumtaz Mahal was the wife of Sher Afghan Khan, the Subedar of Shah Jahan's army, who was murdered by Shah Jahan and married to Mumtaz Mahal.
