Solution

The correct option is C 1582
Din-e-Ilahi was an elite eclectic religious movement, formulated by the Mughal emperor Akbar in 1582. The idea was to combine Islam and Hinduism into one faith, but also to add aspects of Christianity, Zoroastrianism and Jainism. Members of the religion were handpicked by Akbar according to their devotion to him.
