Guru Arjan Dev Ji

The Mughal emperor Jahangir wrote in his autobiography Tuzk-e-Jahangiri
that too many people were becoming persuaded by Guru Arjan’s teachings
and if he did not become a Muslim the Sikh Panth had to be extinguished.
He ordered the Guru’s execution.
A contemporary Jesuit account, written in early 17th century by
Spanish Jesuit missionary into the Mughal court Father Jerome Xavier
(1542–1605), who wasin Lahore at the time, records that the Sikhs
managed to get Jahangir to commute the death sentence to a heavy fine,
for which a rich individual, possibly a Sikh, stood as guarantor. The
Guru however refused to let a fine be paid for him and even refused when
a longtime friend of his, Sufi Sai Mian Mir, tried interceding on his
behalf. Jahangir tortured Guru Arjan in the hopes of extracting the
money, but the Guru refused to give the fine and was executed.

The Mughal Emperor Aurangzeb ordered Hindu temples to be destroyed
and that idol worship was to be stopped. He had a temple converted into a
Mosque and slaughtered a cow inside it. He also had Hindus sacked from
their government jobs and employed Muslims instead. Aurangzeb also
ordered Gurdwaras to
