It may be recalled that as an adolescent, Akbar had earned the title of Ghazi by beheading the defenseless infidel Himu
Bairam Khan begged him to slay Himu with his own hands in order to gain the reward of Jihad (crusade against infidels) and the title of Ghazi (hero combating infiedels). Akbar accordingly struck Himu with his sword. The story of Akbar's magnanimity and refusal to kill a fallen foe seems to be a later courtly inventionr eksik
