Sikh History and we are proud of it

Yesterday I visited fatehgarh sahib, which is one of the most historical Gurudwara of Sikh histories. It is related with the younger sons of Guru Gobind Singh ji who were bricked alive in 1704 by Wazir Khan, the then Fauzdar of Sirhind, a magnificent Gurudwara Sahib has been constructed. This Gurudwara is known as Gurudwara Fatehgarh Sahib, because it marks the conquest of the Sikhs in 1710 when under the leadership of Banda Bahadur, the Sikhs ran over the area and razed the fort (built during Balban’s rule) to the ground. Gurudwara Burj Mata Gujri and Gurudwara Shahid Ganj are also located in the main complex of Gurudwara Fatehgarh Sahib. It was at the site of Gurudwara Burj Mata Gujri that the two younger sons, Fateh Singh and Zorawar Singh of Guru Gobind Singh and his mother were kept in confinement by Wazir Khan, the fort was known as `THANDA BURJ’ which was considered a cool place during the summer. But it was a punishment for Guru’s sons and his mother to keep them here in extreme winter. It was at this place that Mata Gujri collapsed on hearing the news of the martyrdom of her grandsons. Later on, Gurdwara Mata Gujri was constructed at this place. This place has its most importance in sikh history and will be remembered till time. The Gurudwara Shahid Ganj has been built to commemorate the memory of those brave Sikhs who were killed while fighting with the Mughal forces under the banner of Banda Bahadur. They were cremated at this place.

Besides I also visited 4 most famous Gurudwaras as well which are

    • The Sikhs have got their own distinction in the freedom struggle of India also. Their contribution to the Defence services is unforgettable and will be remembered for their sacrifices made when Indias were in slavery under the Brish Rule. Guru Nanak occupies a unique place as the greatest saint in the community. Guru Tej Bahadur is known for his valor and courage.

      The word Sikh is not a religion but an Ethnic Group. A will have Singh and the females with have Kaur either in the middle or at the end of their name. They have known by five Ks a practice they have to follow in their regular life as Sikh.

      • yeah know many things about sikh religion but i like to correct you that Its Guru Tegh Bahadur ji and he is known as the " Hind ki chadar" as he saved the Hindu religion from demolition when he saved the religion of kashmiri Pandits
