Development of Science in the Mughal Dynasty in India

Abstract

Dynasties in Islamic history often show that many areas lived and developed under the leadership of a king. Thus in Islamic political life various monarchical governments are justified in part because there appears to be an heir to the throne. Of course, like countries, Islamic dynasties experienced several triumphs and experienced declines and even collapse after enjoying extraordinary fame. For example, the Mughal dynasty only lasted about 332 years before falling to the British. The type of research used is library research or literature study where researchers rely on various literature to obtain research data and use a qualitative approach because the data produced is in the form of words or descriptions. The development of science and technology during the Mughal dynasty in India did not enjoy the same prestige as previous Islamic dynasties, but the science and technology recorded in the history of the Mughal dynasty was quite advanced, this can be seen from the Mughal legacy.
