Zinat un-nisa was the daughter of the Grand Mughal Aurangzeb . The relationship with his successor, Zinat un-nisa's nephew Jahandar Shah , was bad because of his lust for pleasure. Zinat un-nisa was called Begum Sahib .
Just like her sister Zeb un-nisa , she was busy building buildings. In Delhi she had the mosque Zinat Al-masajid (ornament of the mosques) built, which later became a meeting place for poets. She also built apartments for Sufis and helped captive high-ranking Maratha women .
