Din-i-Ilahi was a syncretic religious doctrine propounded by the emperor Jalalu d-Din Muhammad Akbar in year 1582 A.D., who ruled the Mughal Empire from 1556 to 1605, intending to merge the best elements of the religions of his empire, and thereby reconcile the differences that divided his subjects.
