When Rattan Chand the son of Bhagwan Das was informed about the fate of this father, he vowed to avenge the death of his father. He went to Karam Chand his relative and son of Chandu Shah and urged him to join him against the common oppressor (Guru Sahib). They then both met Abdula Khan Subedar of Jalandhar and poured out their grievances and complained against Guru Ji. They said that if the Guru were put into the hands of the Emperor, he would receive a high promotion as Shah Jahan would be pleased.

Abdula Khan was already against Guru Ji, he commanded an army of 4,000. Abdula Khan ordered the local chieftains Bairam Khan, Muhammad Khan, Balwand Khan, Imam Baksh, Nabi Baksh, Chirag Din, Akbar Khan and Sher Muhammad to ready their forces. With these forces the army number reached around 10,000 who attacked Sri Hargobindpur. When Guru Ji was informed he told his Sikhs to get ready for battle. Abdula Khan divided his into eight divisions, five for his generals, two for his sons and one for himself.

The Guru gave the command of the army to Bhai Jattu and selected the Jathedars for each Jatha , the Jathedars were Bhai Piraga, Bhai Mathra Bhat (son of Baba Bhikha), Bhai Jagan Nath, Bhai Jagna, Bhai Saktu, Bhai Jati Mall, Bhai Paras Ram, Bhai Malooka. The Jatha of Bhai Bidhi Chand was put in reserve.

When the Mughal army reached near the city, the Sikhs welcomed them with bullets and arrows. Abdula Khan did not know that the Sikhs were so well equipped, all the Sikhs were in their trenches so it was not possible for the Mughals to trace them. Abdula Khan tried to put the situation under his control, but he failed.

The next day Abdula Khan sent his 2 sons Nabi Bakhsh and Karim Baksh with a large number of men and advised them saying “Don’t care about bullets and arrows, overpower the trenches of the Sikhs”. Before they could reach any trench they were killed by a shower of bullets and arrows. When Abdula Khan heard this new he became very furious and entered the camp of the Sikhs. When Guru Ji saw him, he came out and stood before Abdula Khan. He attacked Guru Ji with powerful blows but Guru Ji blocked them on his shield. Then Guru ji attacked him in such as a way that he was lying on the ground cut in two pieces.



After the death of Abdula Khan, Karam Chand appeared to attack Guru Ji. When Guru Ji attacked him with such a powerful blow, his sword got broken in two pieces. Guru Ji had another sword, the sword of Piri (spiritual authority), but Guru Ji did not use that sword. Guru Ji caught hold of him from the neck and gripping him for some time threw him on the ground with such force that Karam Chand was lying dead on the ground. When Rattan Chand seeing this ran to aid Karam Chand, he was shot dead. Guru Ji won this battle with great honour, drums of victory were joyously sounded just like after the first battle.

When Shah Jahan heard about the defeat of Abdula Khan, he ordered his army to ruin Sri Hargobindpur. Wazir Khan then told Shah Jahan, “The Guru was constructing a mosque for the Muslim inhabitants of the city, but Bhagwan Das was against it.” When Shah Jahan heard this he ordered the army not to attack and confiscated the property of Abdula Khan.

This battle was fought happened in September 1629 (according to some chronicles 1628)
