A Hindu king in Kangra, even before the time of Akbar for example, had a wife who practiced her Jain faith after marrying the Hindu king. She had the idol  of Jain Tirathankar (AdiNath, shown below) in Kangra Fort for worship, and her husband (a Hindu) let her live and worship according to her pre-marital religion.
It seems the Mughal king Akbar very likely had learnt about the religious tolerance by Hindu kings in India before him and followed their example of religious tolerance and magnanimity towards people of other faiths.

Jalaluddin was atypical. A proper Muslim won't like his ways. His own sister was so worried for his salvation that she prayed to Allah to forgive her brother. He was essentially a kafir in the eyes of iSlamic "scholars". He is not a hero in PakiSatan. Just because Jalaluddin was kafirish, it doesn't mean that H-M synthesis in India will be easy. For that to happen, Muslim youth should turn away from their fanatic and intolerant dogma and Muslim women should be educated so that they can stand on their own feet. The average Muslim in India should listen to people like Tarek Fatah (there is already a fukwa against him).
