Dārā Shikūh: Life and Works by Bikrama Jit Hasrat is a scholarly biography of Prince Dārā Shikūh (1615–1659), the eldest son of the Mughal emperor Shah Jahan. The book examines his personality, political career, religious outlook, and literary contributions.<br/><br/>Hasrat traces Dara’s upbringing in the Mughal court, his close association with Sufi saints, and his deep interest in spiritual dialogue between Islam and Hinduism. Special emphasis is given to Dara’s writings, such as Majma‘ al-Bahrain (The Mingling of Two Oceans) and Sirr-i-Akbar (his Persian translation of the Upanishads), which reveal his efforts to harmonize Islamic mysticism and Hindu philosophy.<br/><br/>The book also narrates the political rivalry between Dara and his brother Aurangzeb, leading to Dara’s defeat, trial, and execution. Hasrat portrays Dara as a visionary prince, a Sufi thinker, and a cultural bridge-builder whose legacy continues to inspire ideas of religious tolerance and pluralism in India. |
