  Among the Gurkān kings of India, the long twenty-three-year reign of Jahāngīr Shah (1014-1037 AH) is especially famous because he was interested in Persian language and Iranian culture. He also wrote his diaries in Persian and named it Jahāngīrnāmih. Based on this book of Jahāngīr Shah and the report of one of his courtiers, Abdul Sattar Lahori, that is, the book of Jahāngīrī's meetings. The authors of the following article, relying on the descriptive-analytical method and with a comparative study, have tried to hold celebrations and festive behaviors that both works have been widely explained, examined.
