Answer:
The Mughals did not believe in the rule of primogeniture, where the eldest son inherited his father's estate. Instead they followed the Mughal and Timurid custom of coparcenary inheritance, or a division of the inheritance amongst all the sons.
They did not believe in Primogeniture. Primogeniture is the system where the eldest son gets all the properties owned by his father. Instead they followed the Mughal and Timurid custom of coparcenary inheritance. It is a division of the inheritance amongst all the sons. Mughal princes rebelled against their fathers, overthrew them and captured power.
