| B. | Nawab Vajid Ali Sah |

| Answer» D. Akbar | |
|
Explanation: Akbar and Tulsidas were contemporary. It was because of the close friendship between the two that Akbar ordered a firman that followers of Rama, Hanuman & other Hindus, should not be harassed in his kingdom. Abdur Rahim Khankhana, famous Muslim poet who was one of the Navaratnas (nine-gems) in the court of the Mughal emperor Akbar, was a personal friend of Tulsidas. The historian Vincent Smith, the author of a biography of Tulsidas' contemporary Akbar, called Tulsidas as the greatest man of his age in India and greater than even Akbar himself. |
