#2024wish
Gurudwara Sis Ganj Sahib is a historic Sikh gurdwara located in Chandni Chowk, Old Delhi, India. It holds significant historical and religious importance in Sikhism. The gurdwara marks the site where the ninth Sikh Guru, Guru Tegh Bahadur Sahib, was martyred in 1675 AD.
Guru Tegh Bahadur Sahib was executed by the Mughal Emperor Aurangzeb for his refusal to convert to Islam and for defending the freedom of religion and the rights of the Hindu Kashmiri Pandits. The gurdwara was built to commemorate his martyrdom and to honor his sacrifice.
Gurudwara Sis Ganj Sahib is a place of reverence and worship for Sikhs and people from all walks of life. It features beautiful architecture, including golden domes and marble interiors, and hosts daily prayers, kirtan (devotional singing), and langar (community kitchen) where free meals are served to all visitors regardless of their religion, caste, or background.
The gurdwara stands as a symbol of resilience, courage, and religious freedom, embodying the principles of Sikhism and the teachings of Guru Tegh Bahadur Sahib. It attracts devotees and visitors from around the world who come to pay their respects and seek spiritual solace.
