The mother of Daniyal was most probably Mariam-uz-Zamani, the influential Rajput wife of Emperor Akbar.[8] She was the daughter of Raja Bharmal and Daniyal was sent to her maternal home (Amer) to be brought up by her mother.[9] Amer's fostering of the prince indicates that his mother was likely from the desert state, but remaining records are not clear. Mother of Daniyal cant be Mariam-uz-Zamani for Daniyals mother died in 1596 during the reign of Akbar.This has been documented in Akbarnama.Mariam uz Zamani died in the year 1623.
