Gurdwara Sri Shaheedi Bagh Sahib is situated in the Anandpur Sahib.
There is an oak tree here from the time of Sri Guru Gobind Singh Ji's period.
According to local tradition, when the tree dried out the Sangat asked Guru Gobind Singh to help turn it green again.
Guru Gobind Singh was supposed to have said that when a lady, who has never scolded a man, comes here then the tree would turn green again.
When such a lady arrived, Guru Gobind Singh asked her why she had never scolded a man.
The lady narrated her story, she was part of a family of seven sisters. When her father passed away, her mother was pregnant, and their whole property was seized by mughal authorities.
The mughals ordered that as there was no male in the household the property of the family was forfeit, unless the mother gave birth to a son. By God's grace, a son was born and the family were handed their property back. Thereafter, the lady always respected men as a blessing.
It is also said that Guru Gobind Singh's elephant, named Parshadi, was kept here.
