The army prepared to storm Peshawar and Sikh army come together to do an Ardas to Akal Purakh asking for their victory and to formalize their upcoming departure to the battlefield.
Upon the completion of the ceremony Ranjit Singh heard news of the delay of General Ventura and the Sikh artillery and cannons so he told his army to stop and tried to tell the Nihang army to stop the planned attack.

Akali Phula Singh refused to break the Khalsa's Gurmata made in the presence of Guru Granth Sahib to fight tonight and to fight to the last without turning back.
He told Ranjit Singh to do what he may with his army but the Nihangs are leaving for battle now and won't turn back.
The Akalis thus entered the battlefield first.
The Nihangs charged at the army on horseback but when they reached the army they abandoned their horses and fought through the enemies with swords.
 Ranjit Singh seeing the Nihangs successful charge and also seeing how the Nihangs were outnumbered on the battlefield ordered the rest of the army to enter the battlefield.
Prince Kharak Singh's army now charged at the enemy and General Ventura had now also arrived.
Ranjit Singh ordered General Balu Bahadur's Gurkha army to attack the enemy from behind.

In the Uoper Desh region after severe hand-to-hand combat Akali Phula Singh was wounded in the leg so he came back to fight on a horse.
Whilst fighting on horse his horse got shot so he came back to the battlefield on in howdah on the elephant upon which he would be fired down and attain martyrdom.
Around this time General Ventura, Hari Singh Nalwa, and Sirdar Budh Singh attacked Muhammad Azim Khan's army.
When the Ghazis heard that Azim Khan ran away they lost hope and were quickly defeated.
The Sikhs chased away any surviving enemies and after winning the battle the news of Akali Phula Singhs death spread around the army.
Ranjit Singh with tears in his eyes along with the other Sirdars reached where Akali Phula Singh's body was lying in the howdah.
Ranjit Singh covered his body with a shawl and returned to his campsite in dismay.
The next day Akali Phula Singh was cremated and his ashes deposited in the Lunda river.
 Akali Phula Singh was succeeded by Jathedar Baba Hanuman Singh Nihang.
