" Jahangir ordered his execution, but it is unlikely that he also ordered Guru Arjun to be tortured and converted, for two reasons ; one, because we have no other examples from Jahangir's generally tolerant reign to support the idea that he forced people to convert to Islam, and two, because Jahangir makes no note of Guru Arjun's torture, yet cheerfully describes the torture of two other rebels, as well as Guru Arjun's execution.

Roe believed Jahangir's religion to be of his own making, " for he envies ProphetMahomett, and wisely sees no reason why he should not bee as great a prophet as he, and therefore professed himself so ... he hath found many disciples that flatter or follow him.

" At this time, one of those disciples happened to be the current English ambassador, though his initiation into Jahangir's inner circle of disciples was devoid of religious significance for Roe, as he did not understand the full extent of what he was doing: Jahangir hung " a picture of him self set in gold hanging at a wire gold chain ” round Roe's neck.

Despite Roe's somewhat casual use of the term ' atheist ', he could not quite put his finger on Jahangir's real beliefs.
