Who ordered Abu'l Fazl to write 'Ain-i-Akbari'?

Akbar

The correct answer is Option (2) → Akbar

The Ain-i Akbari was the culmination of a large historical, administrative project of classification undertaken by Abu’l Fazl at the order of Emperor Akbar. It was completed in 1598, the forty-second regnal year of the emperor, after having gone through five revisions. The Ain was part of a larger project of history writing commissioned by Akbar. This history, known as the Akbar Nama, comprised three books. The first two provided a historical narrative. The Ain-i Akbari, the third book, was organised as a compendium of imperial regulations and a gazetteer of the empire.
