Explanation:

Takht-i murassa is the jeweled throne of Shah Jahan. The throne was completed in a course of 7 years.

Qandahar was a bone of contention between the Safavids and the Mughals.

Tajwiz was a petition presented by a nobleman to the emperor, recommending that an applicant be recruited as mansabdar.

The Mughal kings celebrated three major festivals a year: the solar and lunar birthdays of the monarch and Nauroz, the Iranian New Year on the vernal equinox. On his birthdays, the monarch was weighed against various commodities which were then distributed in charity.
