| Notes | A Dhadi Vaar dedicated to the Shaheedi Purab of the fifth Guru Sahibaan of the Sikh faith, Sri Guru Arjan Dev Ji Maharaj. On 16 June 1606, the Mughal Emperor Jahangir ordered that Sri Guru Arjan Dev Ji, the fifth Sikh Guru be tortured and sentenced to death after Guru Ji had refused to stop preaching the message of God as started by Guru Nanak Dev Ji. Guru Ji was made to sit on a burning hot sheet while boiling hot sand was poured over His body. After enduring five days of unrelenting torture without any resistance, Sri Guru Arjan Dev Ji was taken for a bath in the river. As thousands watched he entered the river, never to be seen again. Accordingly, on the 16 of June of every year since 1606, the Sikhs commemorate the martyrdom of Guru Arjan Dev Ji, the fifth Guru and the first Sikh Martyr. - Referenced from SikhiWiki.
