From which of the following region, the politically influential Mughal queen 'Nur Jahan' (d. 1645) belonged to?

Iran

The correct answer is Option (3) → Iran

Nur Jahan, whose original name was Mehr-un-Nisa, was born in Iran. She was the daughter of a Persian noble named Mirza Ghias Beg. After her marriage to Emperor Jahangir, she became the Empress of the Mughal Empire.

Iranians gained high offices under Jahangir, whose politically influential queen, Nur Jahan (d. 1645) was an Iranian. After Nur Jahan, Mughal queens and princesses also began to control significant financial resources. Shah Jahans daughters Jahanara and Roshanara enjoyed an annual income often equal to that of high imperial mansabdars. Jahanara, in addition, received revenues from the port city of Surat, which was a lucrative centre of overseas trade.
