Sultan Jahan was the last ruler of the Mughal Empire in India, reigning from 1628 to 1658. He was the son of Emperor Shah Jahan, known for commissioning the Taj Mahal. Sultan Jahan's rule was marked by political challenges and conflicts, particularly with his own family members. During his reign, Sultan Jahan faced the decline of the Mughal Empire's power and influence. He was eventually overthrown by his son, Aurangzeb, who took control of the empire. Sultan Jahan's legacy is often overshadowed by the grandeur of his father's achievements and the subsequent rise of Aurangzeb.
