In the glittering court of Emperor Akbar, one figure stood apart: Shaikh Abu al-Faiz ibn Mubarak, known as Faizi. The brother of Abu'l-Fazl, Faizi was Akbar's poet laureate and a key intellectual architect of the Sulh-i-Kul policy. He translated Sanskrit works into Persian, including the Mahabharata and a treatise on Indian medicine. But his life was shadowed by tragedy: he was born blind in one eye, suffered from epilepsy, and died young at 47, just as his brother Abu'l-Fazl was assassinated. This episode explores Faizi's role in the Ibadat Khana debates, his rivalry with other poets, his poetic masterpiece 'Nal u Daman', and the mystery of his sudden death. We also look at how his disability shaped his courtly life and how Akbar's patronage of blind intellectuals challenged Mughal norms. #History #FexingoHistory #MughalEmpire #India #Akbar #Faizi #AbulFazl #IbadatKhana #SulhiKul #PersianPoetry #NalUDaman #MahabharataTranslation #MughalCourt #BlindHistory #DisabilityHistory #Sanskrit #FatehpurSikri #PoetLaureate Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
