Zafarnama

Lire Zafanama en hindi, anglais et punjabi.

Zafarnama means the "Declaration of Victory" and is the name given to the letter sent by the tenth Sikh Guru, Shri Guru Gobind Singh Ji in 1705 to the Emperor of India, Aurangzeb. The letter is written in exquisite Persian verse. In this letter, Guru Ji reminds Aurangzeb how he and his henchmen had broken their oaths taken on the holy Koran. Zafarnama is included in Hikayats and it's the first Hikayat. Despite this deception, this treacherous leader could not harm the Guru ji.
