This is interesting, from another source/website we are discussing similar issue:

According to Encylopaedia of Sikhism, Ed. Harbans Singh, Punjabi University Patiala (article by Gurnek Singh )

"Bibi Viro born 1615 was daughter of Guru Hargobind ji and Mata Damodari at Amritsar on 11 July 1615. She was married to Bhai Sadhu, son of Bhai Dharma a Khosla Khatri of village Mall."

Similarly sixth Guru ji Har Rai had a daughter Rup Kaur, the entry in Encylopaedia Of Sikhism (article by Bhagat Singh) above is as follows:

"Bibi Rup Kaur commonly believed to be the adopted daughter of Guru Har Rai, was according to Bhatt Vhai (Talaunda), his real daughter born to Mata Sulakhani on 8 April 1649. She was married on 3 December 1662, to Khem Karan, son of Bhai Per Mall, a Dhussa Khatri of Pasroor in present day district of Sialkot(now in Pakistan). The young couple, however, settled at Kiratpur itself in the house now known as Gurdwara Manji Sahib, where some of the Bibi's personal articles are preserved as sacred relics. Bibi Rup Kaur had a son, Amar Singh, whose descendents are now living at Dialpura Sodhian in Patiala district."

It appears evident that there is some uncertainty regarding the family trees

Interesting, most of the family trees have no name like Singh. But of course , Guru Gobind came in after 9 Gurus.

So what were our Gurus before the Khalsa was established ? What did the term Sikh mean ? Just another sect, you know Hinduism had hundreds of sects doing their rounds at any one time. The credit for 'identifying', 'branding' and 'marketing' ( in crude but pefect language of today ) Sikhism goes to Guru Gobind Singh.

So what were our Gurus before the Khalsa was established? I think they were no more than enlightened Hindus. But they were Hindus, yes Hindus. Everything Guru Nanak said wsa being followed centuries earlier in North India and was loosely identified by the Britishers as a sect called Sant Tradition. Guru Nanak was preaching the beauty of this sect.

Bad luck, my Khalistani friends, but a fact is a fact is a fact is a fact is a fact. Our Gurus were enlightened Hindus.

Sikhs were called Sikhs even before the time of Guru Gobind Singh Maharaj, even by others. A Hindu is one who follows the ideas, teachings and practises of Hinduism. Guru Nanak did not follow the practises of Hinduism. He did not follow the Vedas, the Upanishads nor the Puranas. If Guru Nanak was following Sant Mat, why was he not a follower of Kabir and Namdev. Why did he not put all of their writings into the Guru Granth, instead of a few? Surely all of the writings of "sants" of sant mat were valid?

All of the Gurus changed the minds and souls of those who followed them. Guru Gobind Singh made that inward change reflect outwards. He did not make "Sikhs", he made "Singhs". There was only one Guru who changed form ten times. Why did he distinguish Sikhs from others if they were followers of Sant Mat too?

Simply said, if the Gurus were followers of "Sant Mat", there would be no "Sikhi" or "Guru Granth".

    • I agree we're not born with sin like the Christians think. Also I agree we have effects of karma. But Gurbani does state that the body contains both sin and charity (goodness): ਕਾਇਆ ਅੰਦਰਿ ਪਾਪੁ ਪੁੰਨੁ ਦੁਇ ਭਾਈ ॥ Within the body are the two brothers sin and virtue. p126 Actually, we do need to be saved. Gurbani calls this "udhaar" (uplift). Without Satguru, souls are liable to spiritual death: ਜਿਨਾ ਸਤਿਗੁਰੁ ਪੁਰਖੁ ਨ ਭੇਟਿਓ ਸੇ ਭਾਗਹੀਣ ਵਸਿ ਕਾਲ ॥ p40 Those who have not met Satguru Purakh are unfortunate and liable to death. So, yeah, we do need to be saved, and Guru ji does the saving. The reason Satguru is the one to save is because God has given Satguru the "key" (kunji): ਸਤਿਗੁਰ ਹਥਿ ਕੁੰਜੀ ਹੋਰਤੁ ਦਰੁ ਖੁਲੈ ਨਾਹੀ ਗੁਰੁ ਪੂਰੈ ਭਾਗਿ ਮਿਲਾਵਣਿਆ ॥੭॥ In the True Guru's hand is the key. None else can open the door. By perfect good fortune the Guru is met. p124
    • That's unfortunate to hear. Could you give any more information? Who was this "baba"? He just disappeared with people's money? Obviously, you should donate your money to known institutions or poor people that you can verify the need of through friends and family in Punjab.
    • Sangat ji,  I know a family who went Sevewal to do seva sometimes end of 2019. They returned last year in great dismay and heart broken.  To repent for their mistakes they approached panj pyaare. The Panj gave them their punishment / order to how t make it up which, with Kirpa, they fulfilled.  They were listening to a fake Baba who, in the end, took all the "Donations " and fled sometime over a year ago. For nearly 4 years this family (who are great Gursikhs once u get to know them) wasted time and effort for this fake Baba. NOT ONLY this one fam. But many, many did worldwide and they took their fam to do seva, in village Sevewal, city Jaitho in Punjab. In the end many families lost money in thousands being behind this Baba. The family, on return, had to get in touch with all the participants and told them to stop.  I am stating this here to create awareness and we need to learn from whom we follow and believe. It's no easy but if we follow the 3 S (Sangat, Simran and Seva) we will be shown the light. As I am writing this the family in question have been doing the same since 2008 onwards and they fell for this Baba... it is unbelievable and shocking.  This am writing in a nutshell as am at work on my break so not lengthy but it deserves a great length.  Especially the family in question, who shed light on youngsters about Sikhi 20 plus years!! 
    • Giani Kulwant Singh Jawaddi Kalan uses simple Punjabi.
    • Leaving aside Guru ji, the general question of taking afeem (opium) in limited quantities for war/medical wounds is simply unproblematic. When you go to the hospital, they give you morphine. What do you think morphine is? It's an opiate. Even codeine (cough syrup) is an opiate! Ever had a cough? Granted, it is against Gurmat to take opium or other drugs for the fun of it.
