What comes to mind when you think of Humayun? Dreary history lessons where you read that he was the son of Babur the first Mughal emperor and the father of Akbar the most popular emperor of India. Think back of the comic book Amar Chitra Katha that you would have read on Humayun. You would recall the story of Humayun who as a young man fell so ill that his life was in danger. Babar prayed to Allah to take away his life but save his son. According to the legend, Humayun survived but Babar died later and is buried in Kabul.

He lost his kingdom to Sher Shah Suri and went into exile in Afghanistan for 15 years. Humayun "The Fortunate" was the eldest son of Babur the founder of the Mughal dynasty.

Born in Kabul in , Humayun lived a less remarkable life compared to his successors Akbar, Jehangir and Shahjehan. Another quirky tale is the tragic accident that led to his death. After his victory over Sher Shah Suri in and winning back Delhi, Humayun could barely enjoy the fruits of his long war. He fell down the steep staircase of the Dina Panah fort in Delhi old fort where the zoological park is located and fractured his skull.

If you visit the fort, a guide is sure to show you the staircase and tell you about how manhoos bad luck it is.
