Answer: (d)

The Mughal rulers did not accept the overlordship of the Calipha.

In 1580, a rebellion broke out in the eastern part of Akbar's empire, and a number of fatwas, declaring Akbar to be a heretic, were issued by Qazis. Akbar suppressed the rebellion and handed out severe punishments to the Qazis. In order to further strengthen his position, Akbar issued a mahzar or declaration that was signed by all major ulemas in 1579.

The mahzar asserted that Akbar was the Khalifa of the age, the rank of the Khalifa was higher than that of a Mujtahid, in case of a difference of opinion among the Mujtahids, Akbar could select any one opinion and could also issue decrees which did not go against the masses.

It is believed that the Mahzar helped in stabilizing the religious situation in the empire. It made Akbar very powerful due to the complete supremacy accorded to the Khalifa by Islam and also helped him eliminate the religious and political influence of the Ottoman Calipha over his subjects.
