namdhari555 Posted February 4, 2014 Report Share Posted February 4, 2014 Gurfeteh During the times of the Gurus only Harimander Sahib was built as a Gurdwara. The rest of the places was where satsang was held and (maharaj) ranjit singh started to build Gurdwaras on places where the Gurus had visited or held Satsang, but before that was there Gurdwaras other then Darbar Sahib. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaikaara Posted February 5, 2014 Report Share Posted February 5, 2014 It could be that many Sikhs and Punjabis might have settled there and adopted the arabic language for written communication . So for their convenience this must have been done. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
namdhari555 Posted February 5, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 5, 2014 (edited) Kadhur sahib was built by Sri guru angad dev ji Goindwal Sahib was built by Sri guru amar das Ji Taran Taraan Sahib was built by Sri guru Arjan dev Ji Kartarpur sahib(this one was built in jalhandar) was built by Sri guru Arjan dev Ji Sri hargobindpur was built by Sri guru Arjan dev Ji Kiratpur sahib was built by Sri guru hargobind sahib Ji Anadpur sahib was built by Sri guru tegh bahadur sahib Ji Paunta Sahib was built by Sri guru gobind Singh Ji. Hope this answers your question. All the places you mentioned are cities laid out by the Gurus. I mean did the Gurus build a physical place other then Darbar Sahib were it was just for Sangats, katha and keertan building. Kartarpur and Anandpur was where the Gurus lived but after them Gurdwaras were built over the sites.

Singh123456777 Posted February 5, 2014 Report Share Posted February 5, 2014 They were gurduwaras that they founded.Then around the gurduwara people started to live there.Check their histories.

Singh123456777 Posted February 5, 2014 Report Share Posted February 5, 2014 (edited) For example at khadur sahib guru Ji stayed there for 13 years and taught Gurmukhi,wrestling, etc.He also made a gurduwara there. Sri guru amar das Ji moved from khadur sahib and built goindwal sahib.There he created baoli sahib. Afterwards guru ram das Ji made Sri harimandar sahib and stayed there. Sri guru Arjan dev Ji laid the foundation for gurduwara tarn taran sahib. Yes kartarpur was a city and so was Sri hargobindpur and a few other ones I mentioned.

BhagatSingh Posted February 6, 2014 Report Share Posted February 6, 2014 Was the word 'Gurdwara' used while any of the Guru saheban was alive? I believe the words 'mandirs' and 'dharmasals' were used by Hindus/Sikhs of that age. correct? Hari Mandir... makes sense. I think a gurudwara may literally refer to the guru's house, where all the sangat came to meet him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All with the agenda of making hindus weak to convert or enslave? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Singh123456777 Posted February 6, 2014 Report Share Posted February 6, 2014 Guru hargobind sahib Ji started the use of the word gurduwara 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BhagatSingh Posted February 7, 2014 Report Share Posted February 7, 2014 Hindus still call some of their temples Thakurdwara. But it would be interesting to find out the first mention of the word Gurudwara. Gur dwar is mentioned in guru Granth sahib but I think the word is way older, since gurus have always been there in Indian society. I am wondering if gurus held congregations in their houses back then or was it a separate location. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
