Majnu ka Tilla Gurudawara History

Majnu Ka Tilla Gurdwara is one of the old Sikh Gurudwara in Delhi. 'Majnu Ka Tilla' meaning 'a hill of Majnu' Iranian Sufi Abdullah, also known as Majnu (Crazy in Love), met Sikh Guru Nanak Dev on 20 July 1505. Majnu, hermit, crossed the Yamuna free for the people in the name of God. Gurdwara is situated on the right bank of Yamuna River opposite Timarpur Colony.
History of Majnu ka Tilla was built by Sikh military leader Baghel Singh Dhaliwal to commemorate the establishment of Guru Har Gobind in 1783 at the invitation of Guru Nanak Devji and later Emperor Jahangir.
One day Guru Nanak came to Majnu while walking by the river and gave his blessings to this weak guardian. After attaining the long-sought wisdom, Majnu became a devoted disciple of the great Guru. While Guru Nanak was camping on this hill, many Sufi elders from Delhi came to meet Guruji and had spiritual talks with him. Prominent among those who came to pay their respects to the Guru was Hazrat Nizamuddin, the Sajjad Nashin (spiritual guide) of the Saints' Dargah, who deeply influenced his conversation with Guru Nanak. Many people were attracted to this place by the divine personality of Majna. In fact, his radiant spirit and devoted love for his Guru made this temple an excellent missionary center for centuries.

It is said that after Guru Nanak Dev blessed Majnu, he was so pleased with Majnu's devotion that he said to his new devotee, "Your name will live on forever". Hence the Gurdwara was named Majnu Ka Tilla in the sacred memory of this one-time Muslim saint.
