Nizam Bai (c.1643[citation needed]– 1692) was a wife of the eighth Mughal emperor, Bahadur Shah I.
Though she never reigned as empress, having died several years before her husband ascended the throne, her son eventually succeeded as the Emperor Jahandar Shah.
[2] Nizam Bai was married at the age of seventeen to Aurangzeb's son Prince Muazzam (the later Emperor Bahadur Shah I) on March 12, 1660.
Much of her interests were instead focused on the arts, religion and charity, with a large portion of her incomes being used to provide dowries for disadvantaged girls.
[2] Nizam Bai died in Delhi in 1692, her death being greatly mourned by the Emperor and other members of the royal family.
