Details

On the banks of Yamuna river, Delhi there lived a Muslim Sufi dervish who led the life of a penitent recluse. So lonely and God-intoxicated was he that he was nicknamed Majnu, the mad lover. When he met Guru Nanak Dev Sahib ji, he felt that he was in the presence of a prophet who imparted to him a new revelation. He felt spiritually exalted and illumined, and the Light of God was revealed to him in his soul.Guru Nanak Dev Sahib ji had many Muslim disciples in Punjab but Majnu was his first Muslim disciple in Delhi, who not only became his outstanding devotee but a great missionary who converted his khanqah into a Shrine of Guru Nanak, which continued to be known after his name as Gurudwara Majnu-ka-Tila to this day.
