== History ==
The name Jalgaon is a combination of two [[Marathi language|Marathi]] words, Jal and Gaon, that mean village of water. This name came because of heavy water resources around the town. The name 'Jalgaon Jamod' developed because of a smaller village called 'Jamod' near to Jalgaon. Mughal emperors gave the name 'Jamod' after 1630 AD, when [[Mughal emperor]] Shahjahan's wife [[Mumtaz Mahal]] was traveling with [[Shah Jahan|Shah Jahan's]] earlier military campaigns. She started facing [[pregnancy complications]] in Jamod which led to death in the city of [[Burhanpur]] near Jalgaon Jamod. After this incident Mughals started calling the village Ja-e-Maut (Place of Death). Ja-e-Maut was a Persian word later called Ja-maut, Ja-mod or Jamod by locals.

The name 'Jalgaon Jamod' developed because of a smaller village called 'Jamod' near to Jalgaon. Mughal emperors gave the name 'Jamod' after 1630 AD, when Mughal emperor Shahjahan's wife Mumtaz Mahal was traveling with Shah Jahan's earlier military campaigns. She started facing pregnancy complications in Jamod which led to death in the city of Burhanpur near Jalgaon Jamod. After this incident Mughals started calling the village Ja-e-Maut (Place of Death). Ja-e-Maut was a Persian word later called Ja-maut, Ja-mod or Jamod by locals.

As per Ain-e-Akbari, it was a Pargana town in the Sarkar (then district) of Narnala of Berar Subah.[1] "Raja Bhartuhari", King of Bhoj Nagri(Bhopal) had samadhi at Jalgaon Jamod.[citation needed]
