Themes of Hamza Nama and themes of Akbarnama are found most commonly in the Mughal School of Miniature paintings.

Humayun started the project of illustration of Hamza Nama that was continued by his son and successor Akbar. The earliest of his projects is the continuation of his father’s artistic legacy of Hamza Nama, an illustrated account of the heroic deeds of Hamza, the uncle of Prophet Muhammad. Akbar took delight in hearing the stories of Hamza, a character much loved in the Middle East popular and intellectual circles, which were read out aloud by a professional narrator.
