Ahmad Shah Abdali defeated the Marathas in 1761 and took thousands of captives from Delhi back to Afghanistan. When crossing the Sutlej River, the Sikh chiefs started freeing the captives. Abdali requested help from the rulers of Lahore, Sirhind, and Malerkotla to stop the Sikhs, but was unsuccessful. In February 1762, Abdali's forces ambushed the Sikhs and their families near Kup, killing around 10,000-12,000 Sikhs and 20,000 women and children in what became known as the Vadda Ghallughara. Despite heavy losses, the Sikhs continued on to safety while being pursued

Homily: The Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity Sunday 2024.docxJames Knipper
Countless volumes have been written trying to explain the mystery of three persons in one true God, leaving us to resort to metaphors such as the three-leaf clover to try to comprehend the Divinity. Many of us grew up with the quintessential pyramidal Trinity structure of God at the top and Son and Spirit in opposite corners. But what if we looked at this ‘mystery’ from a different perspective? What if we shifted our language of God as a being towards the concept of God as love? What if we focused more on the relationship within the Trinity versus the persons of the Trinity? What if stopped looking at God as a noun…and instead considered God as a verb? Check it out…
In Jude 17-23 Jude shifts from piling up examples of false teachers from the Old Testament to a series of practical exhortations that flow from apostolic instruction. He preserves for us what may well have been part of the apostolic catechism for the first generation of Christ-followers. In these instructions Jude exhorts the believer to deal with 3 different groups of people: scoffers who are "devoid of the Spirit", believers who have come under the influence of scoffers and believers who are so entrenched in false teaching that they need rescue and pose some real spiritual risk for the rescuer. In all of this Jude emphasizes Jesus' call to rescue straying sheep, leaving the 99 safely behind and pursuing the 1.

2. • Ahmad Shah Abdali during his fifth
invasion defeated Marathas in the battle
of Panipat on the 13th January, 1761 A.D.,
and plundered Delhi at will. He started
back on 22nd March, 1761 A.D., with his
booty and thousands of young men and
women (app. 22,000 to be precise) as his
captives.
• When he crossed river Sutlej in April 1761
A.D., the Singhs started looting him and
setting the prisoners free and sending
them back to their homes. After reaching
Lahore, Abdali sent army to arrest the
Singhs but there was no success. Abdali
left Lahore for Kabul in May 1761 A.D..
• The Singhs again started looting him and
freeing the captives. Before he reached
river Attak, the Singhs were able to free
all the captives and snatch much of the
booty.
3. • On their way back from river Attak, the
Singhs looted Gujrat, Sialkot, Sirhind and
Malerkotla turn by turn, these states
were protectorates of Abdali.
• All the Sikh chiefs met at Amritsar on the
occasion of Diwali on the 22nd October,
1761 A.D. They passed a resolution and
besieged Lahore under the leadership of
Sardar Jassa Singh Ahluwalia. Governer
Ubaid Khan took shelter in the fort. The
Singhs occuppied the city.
• Aqil Dass of Jandiala, an enemy of the
Sikhs, sent his horsemen to Abdali with a
request for attack.
• For the purpose of leaving their families
in safe area before the arrival of Abdali,
the Sikhs proceeded with them towards
Malwa. (Current Area of Ludhiana,
Patiala)
4. • Getting the message of Aqil Dass, Abdali
reached Lahore on 3rd February, 1762 A.D. He
sent messages to the Commanders of Sirhind
and Malerkotla (Son of the same Nawaab Sher
Khan of Malerkotla who had tried to protect the
'Chhote Sahibzade) to block the passage of
Sikhs.
• On the 5th February, Abdali mounted an attack
on the Sikhs near village Kup.
• The Commander of Sirhind, Kasam Khan
blocked the passage of Sikhs. When the Sikhs
give a befitting reply, he ran towards
Malerkotla. The Sikhs had hardly advanced 3
miles when Jain Khan, the Governer of Sirhind
and Shah Wali Khan came forward. With that
raid, the Sikhs were uprooted.
• Their wall of safety around the familes (women
and children) was broken due to which a large
number of families were killed.
5. • Inspite of these losses, the Singhs did not
lose courage. They continued to march
towards Barnala with the caravan. By
evening, they reached the village Kutabe
Bahmani, there the Sikhs started to quench
their thirst from the pool. When the army
tried to reach the pool to drink water, the
Singhs stood in their way.
• They did not allow the army to pass until
the whole of the caravan had quenched
their thirst and moved forward.
• After the Sikhs had gone, the army was able
to reach the pool. During the time, Abdali's
army was drinking water from the pool, the
Sikhs had gone far away.
• Due to the night fall, Abdali abandoned to
pursue the Sikhs. Moving ahead even
during the night, the Sikhs went towards
Kotkapura and Faridkot.
6. • In this greater holocaust, ten to twelve thousand Singhs attained martyrdom and
about twenty thousand women and children were murdered. Every Singh had
suffered some injury that day.
• Sardar Jassa Singh Ahluwalia had 64 wounds on his body. In only three months
Sikhs avenged this defeat by attacking Abdali's general, stationed at Amritsar and
massacring his 20,000 troops, 5-10,000 troops that surrendered were forced to clean
up Golden Temple and other Gurdwaras.
