| | Only half these plans was destined to be realised, for twenty years later, when the building of the Empress' mausoleum was being completed, a rebellion was raised against Shah Jehan by his son Aurangzeb, who later destroyed Benares. | | | During one of these campaigns the Empress, who as usual was accompanying Shah Jahan, died, and before her death she asked him to build for her a tomb - "the most beautiful in the world."” | | | Shah Jehan lived seven years in this subterranean mosque and when he felt the approach of death, he asked to be moved to the fortress wall into the so-called "Jasmine Pavilion," a tower of lace-like marble, which had contained the favourite room of the Empress Arjumand Banu. |

| | Taj Mahal, an historical perspective |
| | The story then rounds off by stating that his daughter spirited his body away across the river Jumna and laid him to rest in the Taj Mahal alongside 'taz [frankly, it is difficult to believe that this was a secret happening and presumably it was blessed by Aurangzeb but then we couldn't know]. | | | He was indeed vainglorious and it is now believed he saw himself as the perfect man. At least he seemed to think he was God's representative on earth and it has even been suggested that he viewed himself as a rival to God. | | | Having buried Mumtaz in her mausoleum, the Taj Mahal, there is some evidence that he planned a mirror image of the white Taj across the other side of the river Jumna but one which would be built with black marble. |
