The question of Shivaji's heir-apparent was complicated by the misbehaviour of his eldest son Sambhaji, who was irresponsible and "addicted to sensual pleasures." Unable to curb this, Shivaji confined his son to Panhala in 1678, only to have the prince escape with his wife and defect to the Mughals for a year. Sambhaji then returned home, unrepentant, and was again confined to Panhala.[52]:551
In late March 1680, Shivaji fell ill with fever and dysentery,[4]:383 dying around 3–5 April 1680 at the age of 52,[16]:278 on the eve of Hanuman Jayanti. Rumours followed his death, with Muslims opining he had died of a curse from Jan Muhammad of Jalna, and some Marathas whispering that his second wife, Soyarabai, had poisoned him so that his crown might pass to her 10-year old son Rajaram.[4]:383
After Shivaji's death, the widowed Soyarabai made plans with various ministers of the administration to crown her son Rajaram rather than her prodigal stepson Sambhaji. On 21 April 1680, ten-year old Rajaram was installed on the throne. However, Sambhaji took possession of the Raigad Fort after killing the commander, and on 18 June acquired control of Raigad, and formally ascended the throne on 20 July.[52][53] Rajaram, his wife Janki Bai, and mother Soyrabai were imprisoned, and Soyrabai executed on charges of conspiracy that October.
did proves that religion have nothing to do with killng Shambhaji killing his own mother for sack of the throne .
do you have any instance where mughal took their enemy daughter and keep them as sex slave .
There is no instance of Shivaji beheading hundreds of defeated people of other religious tribes, that would have indeed made him a ******* terrorist. Shivaji returned the beautiful daughter in law of subedar of kalyan who was captured in war with a copy of the quran with full honor, did not keep her as a sex slave, Shivaji was indeed a good human, not a rapist and charlatan. That's why my ancestors fought for him, not for a fake promise of afterlife debauchery.
