    Solution

    The Mughal Emperor who propounded a new way of life/religion called Din-i-Ilahi was Akbar. He introduced this syncretic religion in the late 16th century, around 1582. Din-i-Ilahi, which means "Religion of God," was an attempt to blend elements from various religions including Islam, Hinduism, Christianity, and Zoroastrianism, to create a universal religion aimed at fostering unity among his subjects.
