Abstract
Etymologically, the word Harem is related to Arabic which means ‘sacred’ or ‘forbidden’ and is used for sacred precincts of Mecca. It evolved to refer to the domain of women in a polygynous family, as well as their separated rooms that were off-limits to males. Hence, harem being a forbidden area was always a source of mystery and intrigue. The Harem complex which included great structures, was a lively and expansive physical environment, which was surrounded by high walls, keeping purdah in mind in which women were organized according to their closeness to the emperor. It was made up of a succession of annexes that were supposed to be light and airy, with a central courtyard for communal celebrations. It was a sophisticated organization that mirrored the Mughal elite's polygamous and opulent lifestyle. The research paper is based on self-administered online snowball sampling survey where 44 respondents were reached through referrals. Inspired by the results, where 96% respondents were keen to know more about these intricacies, this paper attempts to address the nuances of the highly ambiguous medieval tradition of Mughal Harem. It wasn’t just limited to emperor’s luxury but there was more to it, which opens more avenues for the researchers to explore. Keywords: Mughal Harem, Opulent Lifestyle, Intricacies, Women’s status
