Gateway to Sikhism proudly launches Gurudwaras of World @ www.worldgurudwaras.com on auspicious day of Khalsa Sajna Divas , Vaisakhi April 14th 2012. Worldgurudwaras.com will strive to be most comprehensive directory of Historical Gurudwaras and Non Historical Gurudwaras around the world.
The etymology of the term 'gurdwara' is from the words 'Gur (ਗੁਰ)' (a reference to the Sikh Gurus) and 'Dwara (ਦੁਆਰਾ)' (gateway in Gurmukhi), together meaning 'the gateway through which the Guru could be reached'. Thereafter, all Sikh places of worship came to be known as gurdwaras.
It is a work in progress and We strongly urge the Sikh Cyber Community to contribute to this project by submitting contact information, details, images of Gurudwaras around the world to make this a comprehensive directory.
Historical Gurudwaras in Pakistan
Gurudwara Patshahi Chhevin : Muzang
Gurudwara Patshahi Chhevin : Muzang |
When Jahangir handed over Chandu to Guru Hargobind Sahib, he visited
this place alongwith Chandu. Guru Hargobind Ji also made his forst halt
here, when he set free Bibi Kaulan, the daughter of a Qazi, on the asking
of Mian Mir. During this very visit, the Guru commenced the construction
work at the Shahidi Asthan of Guru Arjan Dev Ji. Maharaja Ranjit Singh
got built a Gurdwara at Muzang. In A.D. 1926, by the zeal of late S.Mehar
Singh, the present hall came into existence. Daily congregations were
held. At first, the local committee managed this shrine which in A.D.
1927 was taken over by the S.G.P.C.
