The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options attached, we can say the following.

The dominance of Mughal Emperor Jahangir was declining with the popularity of Guru Arjan Dev.

That is why in 1606, this emperor order to capture Guru Arjan Dev, and he was sent to prison in Lahore Fort. Guru Arjan Dev became so popular in places like Northern India, where he converted many people to Sikhism. This, of course, upset emperor Jahangir because Arjan's popularity heavily threatened the elite in India, the leadership of the emperor, and the Orthodox Church.

Guru Arjan Dev had created the texts of the Sikh book "Adi Granth," a holy document for the Sikhism followers.
