Nasiruddin Muhammad Humayun (Perzisch: نصیر الدین محمد همایون, DMG: naṣīr al-dīn muḥammad humāyūn; Kaboel, 6 maart 1508 - Delhi, 27 januari 1556) was keizer ("padisjah") van het Mogolrijk in het noorden van Voor-Indië tussen 1530 en 1540 en opnieuw in 1555 en 1556. Hij was de zoon en opvolger van Babur, de stichter van het Mogolrijk en de Mogoldynastie. Onder zijn vader speelde hij als legeraanvoerder een rol in de verovering van diens rijk. Toen zijn vader in 1530 onverwachts aan een ziekte overleed, kwamen veel van de Afghaanse edelen in opstand, die na een lange strijd het gezag van de Mogols erkend hadden. Lees meer op Wikipedia
