The Akbar Nama, or the Book of Akbar is an official court chronicle on the life of the third Mughal emperor Jalaluddin Muhammad Akbar (r. ad 1556-1605). Chronicled over three volumes, published under Bibliotheca Indica series, it covers the significant aspects of Akbar’s life from ad 1542 to ad 1605, and was written by the chronicler and favourite noble of Akbar, Abul Fazl ibn Mubarak (d.
ad 1602). This book took nearly seven years to complete. Originally, it was published from 1902 to 1939 under the Royal Asiatic Society of Bengal. The first volume discusses the royal lineage of Akbar in great detail, tracing it to Timur and Genghis Khan.
