Who among the following had been given the title of ‘Sultan Buland Iqbal’ by Shah Jahan?

Dara

The correct answer is Option 2- Dara

Dara Shikoh was the eldest son of the Mughal emperor Shah Jahan. Shah Jahan declared Dara Shikoh as his successor and gave him the title of Sultan Buland Iqbal, which means "King of High Fortune".

Shuja, Murad, and Aurangzeb were Dara's brothers. They all vied for the throne after Shah Jahan fell ill in 1657. In the ensuing war of succession, Dara was defeated by Aurangzeb and executed on his order in 1659.

Dara Shikoh was a known poet, scholar, and Sufi mystic. He was also interested in other religions, such as Hinduism and Christianity. He wrote several books on comparative religion, including the Majma-ul-Bahrain (The Confluence of the Two Oceans), which compares Islam and Hinduism.

Dara Shikoh was a controversial figure during his lifetime. He was criticized by some for his liberal views and his interest in other religions. However, he is now recognized as one of the most important intellectuals of the Mughal period.
