Excerpts from the Book
The martyrdom of Guru Arjan Dev Ji was perpetrated with heart-shaking and pathetic torture and with what determination and stability of mind he bore the torture is not only an exemplary event of our religious history but unique and matchless in world history too. The tortures perpetrated on him by keeping him starved, putting him in hot/boiling water bearing the burning sand on his body and then holding him in the cold water of river Ravi and all such acts carried out on him for four to five days are pathetic and heart shaking. The calmness, determination, and stability of mind shown by Satguru Ji are amazing.
The basic cause of the martyrdom was the rulers who were being led by a bigot and eccentric Muslims headed by Sheikh Ahmad Sirhindi (1561-1624), also called Mujadid-Alif-Sani. We shall describe the role played by him and his Nakshbandi Movement which had become very influential. The role that its preachings played as well as the involvement of Jahangir will be discussed. The references made in Tuzak-i-Jahangiri cannot be ignored. This book explains all other significant reasons with well-researched sources.
