Arjan Dev
Arjan Dev, the fifth Guru of the Sikhs, is revered for his contributions to Sikhism, including the compilation of the Adi Granth, the holy scripture of the Sikhs. He was martyred in Lahore in 1606, where he faced brutal torture for refusing to convert to Islam, ultimately meeting his end at the banks of the Ravi River. This poignant event is commemorated at Gurdwara Dera Sahib, a significant site for Sikhs, symbolizing his sacrifice and the river's role as a witness to his faith and martyrdom. His connection to the Ravi illustrates the river's deep cultural and spiritual significance in Lahore.
