1 Chote sahibzade shaheedi Address Submit Bas ek hi tirath hai hind mai yatra ke liyeee. : On hearing the news of the death of grandteenren, Mata Gujri jee who was absorbed in Nam Abhiyas and Simran at that time, breathed her last breath. Her soul left her body and went to join the Supreme Soul. 16. The holy Quran does not allow the slaughter of innocent and helpless TEENren. Therefore be pleased to release them." In spite of his appeal, the Qazi confirmed that the holy law would give the infidels the choice between Islam and death. It is said that in order to bring the TEENren to submission to Islam, they were made to enter, next day, through a very small door while the Quran was displayed on the other side. The idea was that as the TEENren would enter the door with their heads down, they would then be told that they had bowed to the holy Quran and thereby to Islam. Mata Gujri jee was the proud and sincere wife of Guru Tegh Bahadur jee. Mata Gujri jee was the loving and inspirational mother of Guru Gobind Singh jee. Mata Gujri jee was the compassionate and brave grandmother of the Sahibzadey. Mata Gujri jee was a living and breathing example of a true Gursikh. kataye jaha bete, baap ne khuda ke liyeee. As a living example of an inspirational Gursikh, Mata Gujri jee gathered Sahibzadey to around her, and together they recited Sodar Rehras Sahib (the evening prayer) afterwhich Mata jee told the stories of Guru Arjan jee, Guru Tegh Bahadur jee and other Sikhs who lived wonderful and brave lives. Hearing the stories and listening to Gurbani, the Sahibzadey were filled with courage and high spirits, and told their grandmother that they wanted to walk in the footsteps of their grandfather and greatgrandfather. Mata Gujri jee was pleased to hear such affirmations of their strong faith. 17 June Shaheedi Guru Arjan Sahib 25 June Shaheedi Baba Banda Singh Bahadur 28 June Birth Bhagat Kabir Sahib 29 June Parkash Guru Hargobind Sahib* 29 June Death Anniversary of Maharaja Ranjit Singh 02 July Foundation Day Sri Akal Takht Sahib 09 July Shaheedi Bhai Mani Singh Ji. Editor's Note: In 2015, the Akal Takhat and the SGPC released a completely new calendar for Sikh celebrations. Please see the following news article for more information. Listen to Daily Hukamnama from Darbar Sahib,

2 Listen to Daily Hukamnama from Darbar Sahib, Amritsar. The Sahibzadey were taken outside, and in front of crowds of people, they began to be bricked alive. People stared and cried in dismay how these young TEENren were being tortured to death. But no one, not a single person protested or dared to speak against these horrific atrocities. As the wall was being raised the Sahibzade were offered the chance of being saved by the Qazi by accepting Islam. However with the power of Gurbani within them, and the strength of Amrit, the Sahibzadey roared a loud jaikara, "Bolé So Nihal, SAT SIREE AKAL!!!". These two young brave souls, aged 5 and 7, were not scared, tempted or lured to give up their faith. Instead they laughed and smiled and accepted death, rather than give up their priceless Sikhi. The Qazi asked Wazir Khan to get Sher Muhammad Khan, the Nawab of Malerkottla, to render punishment to these young TEENren, because Guru Gobind Singh jee had killed the Nawab of Malerkottla's brother in battle. Therefore, he would obtain revenge through killing the Guru's young TEENren. However, upon being asked, feeling disturbed and emotional he replied, "Everyone, this is cruelty! My brother was killed on the battlefield. These innocent boys are not responsible for his death. If we have to take revenge it shall be from their father. Allah save us from this sinful act." Saying this he got up and mournfully said, "0 Allah, have mercy!!" Gurpurabs mark the culmination of Prabhat Pheris, the early morning religious procession which goes around the localities singing shabads (hymns). These pheris generally start three weeks before the festival. Devotees offer sweets and tea when the procession passes their homes. The celebrations start with the three-day akhand path, in which the Guru Granth Sahib (the holy book of the Sikhs) is read continuously from beginning to end without a break. The conclusion of the reading coincides with the day of the festival. The Granth Sahib is also carried in procession on a float decorated with flowers throughout the village or city. Five armed guards, who represent the Panj Pyares, head the procession carrying Nishan Sahibs (the Sikh flag). Local bands play religious music and marching schoolteenren form a special part of the procession. Free sweets and langar (community lunches) are also offered to everyone irrespective of religious faith. Local volunteers serve it with a spirit of seva (service) and bhakti (devotion). Sikhs visit gurdwaras (Sikh temples) where special programmes are arranged and kirtans (religious songs) sung. Houses and gurdwaras are lit up to add to the festivities. Parnam Sahida Nu. Sanu enah di kurbani sada yaad rakhni chahi di hai. The next morning, the Sahibzadey came before the Nawab once more. "I hope you have come to a decision whether or not you wish to live, by simply converting to Islam or accept death by

3 simply converting to Islam or accept death by being bricked alive." Unshaken and steadfast in their faith and unwilling to give up their Sikhi faced with the threat of death, the executioners prepared to build a brick wall. He asked the young Sahibzadey, "O young and innocent looking TEENren, if I release you today, what will you do?" "We are the sons of Guru Gobind Singh jee and we are the grandteenren of Guru Tegh Bahadur jee. If you release us, we will gather an army together and attack you!" replied the young Sahibzadey. They met Gangu, a Brahman who served as a chef in the Guru's Kitchen. Gangu promised to look after Mata Gujri jee, Guru jee's mother, and the young princes aged 5, and 7. "Let me take you to my village", said Gangu. "You will be safe there." Having trust for Gangu, Mata jee agreed that she and the Sahibzadey would go to Gangu's village. Arriving in the village, Gangu took them home and gave them beds to sleep on.. In a low voice the Nawab observed, "How proud of their faith!". In the dust and din of battle, members of the family of Guru Gobind Singh got separated from each other at river Sirsa ( Note: Now days Gurudwara Parivar Vichora is situated at this place in the memory of separation of the Family ). ThoughtCo is part of the Dotdash publishing family. On an enquiry by the Kotwal, Gangu confided to him in a low voice that Guru Gobind Singh's mother and his two young sons were hiding in his house. His intention was to keep the stolen Gold coins with him forever after the arrest of Mata Ji and Sahibzade. Sarbans Daniya ve dena kon dauga tera, Parnam Shaheeda Nu. News of their arrest had spread far and wide. People in large numbers collected everywhere on the way. People were surprised that the young innocent Sahibzade had been put under arrest along with their venerable grand mother. The fearless looks of the Sahibzadas aroused their admiration and they observed, " They are the brave sons of their brave father ". The remarks of the on-lookers made the constables panicky and they started walking fast. The cart-driver also whipped the bullocks so that they could reach Sirhind quickly. Order to appear before Nawab Wazir Khan's court:. What Were the 18th-Century Shaheed Singh Martyrs in Sikh History?. Biography of Tenth Guru Gobind Singh ( ). The Nawab's court was in session. As the two Sahibzadas stepped inside, they greeted the courtiers with the Fateh Wahguru ji ka Khalsa, Wahguru ji ki Fateh The Khalsa is God's own Victory be to God" The court resounded with their greeting. Eviction of Mata Gujri, Sahibzada Fateh Singh and Sahibzada Zorawar Singh from Anandpur Sahib siege. Sirhind Fatehghar - December 12, 1705 A.D., 13th day of the month of Poh, SV year 1762 Fateh Singh, and his brother survived being bricked up alive, but then the order was given for them to be beheaded. Their grandmother Mata Gujri died of shock in the prison tower. Sikhs organise religious functions during this three-day event to pay homage to the martyrdom of Baba Zorawar Singh ji and Baba Fateh Singh ji, the two youngest sons of Guru Gobind Singh.

Reply of Sahibzade was like a strong slap of words for Nawab Wazir Khan. The Nawab got annoyed at their reply but just kept quiet. The two younger sons Sahibzada Zorawar Singh and Sahibzada Fateh Singh proceeded along with Guruji's revered old mother Mata Gujri Ji. They passed through thick forests and difficult terrains. The illustrious martyred sons of Guru Gobind Singh are honored in the prayer of ardas for their valor and sacrifice as " Char. What happened there Hill rajas and Mughal forces had laid seize to Anandgarh Fort, Anandpur Sahib for about 8 months, in The Mughals and Hilly Rajas wanted Guru Gobind Singh to leave the fort they swore on Quran to give a safe passage to Guru. The Guru decided to leave the fort. Guru Sahib, four Sahibzadas, Mata Gujri, Guru's Mahil (wives), five Panj Piaras and a few hundred Sikhs left Anandpur Sahib on the chilly night of 20 December 1704 towards Ropar. In the intervening night of December, the rnemy breached the vows and attacked Guru's entourage at a site on Sarsa rivulet some 25 km from Anandpur Sahib. Guru's family separated. This spot is now known as Parwar Vichhora. Mata Gujri with two younger grandsons, accompanied Guru family cook, Gangoo, a Kashmiri pandit, to his village, Saheri near Morinda. Guru's Mahil left with Bhai Mani Singh, towards Delhi. Guru Gobind Singh with two elder Sahibzadas, 5 Panj Piaras and 40 Sikhs proceeded towards Chamkaur and reached there, in the afternoon of 21 December. Both are in Ropar Distt.(Pb.). The famous Chamkaur battle, took place on 22 and 23 December 1704, where two elder Sahibzadas, 3 Panj Piaras and 40 Sikhs laid down their lives. Mata Gujri and the two younger Sahibzadas were arrested by Morinda Mughals sent by Wazir Khan at Saheri village. From there, they were handed over to Suba Sirhind. They were imprisoned, in the Thanda Burj (Cold Tower). A farcical Trial began, in the Kacheri, (Court) of Suba Sirhind. It lasted for three days. On 27 December 1704, a heinous and cold-blooded crime was committed in the Sarzameen of Sirhind. Guru Gobind Singh's two younger sons, Baba Fateh Singh and Baba Zorawar Singh aged 7 and 9 years were bricked alive and later killed in the presence of the Assembly of Shaitans, presided over by Suba Sirhind, Wazir Khan. Two younger Sahibzadas and Mata Gujri were cremated by a rich Hindu merchant Diwan Todar Mal who covered the cremation grounds in gold coins as their final rites couldn't be done on mughal ground (land), this pl.

He asked the young Sahibzadey, "O young and innocent looking TEENren, if I release you today, what will you do?" "We are the sons of Guru Gobind Singh jee and we are

5 the grandteenren of Guru Tegh Bahadur jee. If you release us, we will gather an army together and attack you!" replied the young Sahibzadey. "Whoever meditates on the Lord and Master obtains peace.". When the TEENren saw that trap, the seven years old Sahibzada Fateh Singh threw his feet first instead of his head while entering through the small door. Throwing the feet towards the Quran meant an insult to Islam. Bhai ZORAWAR SINGH ( ), the third son of Guru Gobind Singh, was born to Mata Jito ji at Anandpur on 28 November 1696 and was barely nine years old at the time of the evacuation of Anandpur on the night of 5-6 December Since the death, on 5 December 1700, of Mata Jito ji, Mata Gujari, his grandmother had been especially attached to young Zorawar Singh and his infant brother, Fateh Singh. She took charge of both as the column moved out of Anandpur. The bodies of the three shaheeds (martyrs) were prepared for cremation with honour and respect. In December 1704, the 5 and 7 years old brave TEENren and Mata Gujri Kaur jee attained supreme martyrdom and showed the world, that no power, government or fear or greed could shaken or make a Sikh of Guru Gobind Singh jee tremble. 14 April (Vaisakhi) - Birth Anniversary of Khalsa 16 April Parkash Guru Angad Sahib* 21 April Birth Bhagat Dhanna Ji 29 April Parkash Guru Amardas Sahib* 04 May Shaheedi Jorr-Mela Shri Muktsar Sahib 08 May Gurgaddi Guru Hargobind Sahib* 12 May Sirhind Fateh by Baba Banda Singh Bahadar. and Fateh Singh, were presented in the court of the viceroy. Wazir Khan reflected that if the TEENren became Mohammadans, it would be a glory to his faith- Islam. He, therefore, told them that if they accepted Islam, he would grant them an estate, would marry them to the princesses and they would be happy and be honored by the Emperor. The nine years old Zorawar Singh replied, " Our grandfather, Guru Tegh Bahadur, parted with his head but not with his religion and he ordered us to follow his example. It is best that we should give our lives to save the Sikh religion and bring down God's vengeance on the Turks.". "What if you are defeated", asked the Nawab. "Then we get up again, and gather another army and fight you and all those who cause tyranny and oppression. Until we are breathing, we will continue to fight for justice and righteousness." The Nawab was shocked at the response from these two young energetic souls. "You have insulted me! You have a choice now, you either convert to Islam or you will face the sword." "We are brave lions of Guru Gobind Singh Ji! We are not afraid of your sword. We are lions! How can we try to pretend to be sheep!" courageously roared the Sahibzadey. As a living example of an inspirational Gursikh, Mata Gujri jee gathered Sahibzadey to around her, and together they recited Sodar Rehras Sahib (the evening prayer) afterwhich Mata jee told the stories of Guru Arjan jee, Guru Tegh Bahadur jee and other Sikhs who lived wonderful and brave lives.
