Painde Khan’s Last Wish Granted by Guru Hargobind Sahib Ji
An orphan Pathän lad Painde Khan (d. 1634) was brought up and trained in the art of warfare by Guru Hargobind Sahib (1595- 1644 A.D.). Painde Khan led Mughal forces against Guru Sahib and died at the hands of the Guru in the battle of Kartarpur. Before the Pathän breathed his last Guru Sahib asked him his last wish. He begged to be pardoned. Guru Sahib forgave him and covered his face from the
burning sun with his shield.
