Aiman Tariq
Aiman ( ar, أيمن) is an Arabic language male name. It is an alternative Latin alphabet spelling of the name Ayman. It is derived from the Arabic Semitic root () for ''right'', and literally means ''righteous'', ''he who is on the right'', ''right-handed'', ''blessed'' or ''lucky''. An early bearer of the name was Ayman ibn Ubayd, an early Muslim and sahabi of the Islamic prophet Muhammad. It is a masculine name in the Arabic language. However, in Pakistan, due to a general lack of knowledge of Arabic, Ayman has been incorrectly appropriated to be used both as a masculine and feminine name. This may be because of the popular woman figure Umm Ayman, who raised Muhammad, whom parents incorrectly name their daughter after. However, her original name was ''Barakah'', and Umm Ayman was her kunya, with "Umm" meaning ''mother of'', and Ayman being the name of her eldest son, Ayman ibn Ubayd. In Turkey, the name is spelled as ''Eymen''. Eymen was the second most popular given name for ...

Abu'l-Fath Jalal-ud-din Muhammad Akbar (25 October 1542 – 27 October 1605), popularly known as Akbar the Great ( fa, ), and also as Akbar I (), was the third Mughal emperor, who reigned from 1556 to 1605. Akbar succeeded his father, Humayun, under a regent, Bairam Khan, who helped the young emperor expand and consolidate Mughal domains in India. A strong personality and a successful general, Akbar gradually enlarged the Mughal Empire to include much of the Indian subcontinent.
