Who wrote Akbar Birbal stories in Hindi?

One well - known story is when Akbar asked Birbal to measure the length of a river. Birbal took a stick and made a mark on it at the water level at one bank. Then he walked to the other bank and again made a mark on the stick where the water reached. He said the length between the two marks was the length of the river. Akbar was impressed by this simple yet smart solution.

Once Akbar and Birbal were taking a walk in the garden. Akbar saw a mango tree full of ripe mangoes. He said to Birbal, 'I want to know how many mangoes are there on this tree without counting them.' Birbal said, 'Your Majesty, there are as many mangoes as there are leaves on the tree.' Akbar was amused and realized Birbal's quick - thinking ability.

One moral lesson is the importance of intelligence and quick - thinking like Birbal. In many stories, he uses his wits to solve problems and answer Akbar's difficult questions, showing that using our brains can get us out of tricky situations.

One famous Akbar Birbal story is about the 'Three Questions'. Akbar wanted to test Birbal's wisdom. He asked three questions: What is the most precious thing in the world? Who is the most intelligent person? What is the best time? Birbal replied that knowledge is the most precious, the one who learns from everyone is the most intelligent, and the present moment is the best time. His answers impressed Akbar greatly.

In another story, Akbar wanted to test Birbal's wisdom. He showed Birbal a picture of a family where a man, his wife, and their children were sitting together. Akbar asked Birbal to tell who was the most intelligent in the family just by looking at the picture. Birbal replied that it was the mother because she was the one who could manage and take care of everyone in the family, which required great intelligence.

Some stories teach about kindness and fairness. Akbar, under Birbal's influence at times, learned to be more just in his decisions. It shows that a good leader should be fair to all his subjects.

There was a time when Akbar lost his ring. He suspected his servants. Birbal came and said he knew who had the ring. He called all the servants together and said, 'The ring is with a thief. And the thief has a straw in his nose.' All the servants started looking at each other's noses. One servant unconsciously touched his nose. Birbal pointed at him and said he was the thief. It turned out he was right.

Once Akbar lost his ring in the palace. He asked Birbal to find it. Birbal thought for a while and then announced that the thief was the person who had a long nose. All the courtiers started looking at each other's noses. Akbar was confused too. Birbal then said that he just wanted everyone to search themselves. And soon the ring was found in a corner of the room. This shows Birbal's cleverness in solving problems in an interesting way.

Once, Akbar got angry with his courtiers for some minor mistake. He wanted to punish them severely. Birbal came forward and said, 'Your Majesty, if you cut the branches of the tree (the courtiers), the tree (the kingdom) will not be able to grow properly. Forgive them and guide them instead.' Akbar, after thinking for a while, followed Birbal's advice and the courtiers were very grateful to Birbal for saving them.

Once, Akbar asked Birbal, 'Birbal, how many stars are there in the sky?' Birbal quickly replied, 'Just as many as the hairs on your Majesty's beard.' Akbar was amused and satisfied with this clever answer.
