Solution

The correct option is B Akbar
Din-e-Ilahi was an elite religious movement, formulated by the Mughal emperor Akbar in the late 16th century AD. 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.
