Shaikh Bāyazid Ṣāboongar (belonging to the period of Jahāngir) was among the disciples of Muḥammad Ghaus̱ and lived in Sarhind. In the year 1025/A.H. Sarhind and other towns were struck by an epidemic (wabā) that spread everywhere except the area where Shaikh Bāyazid lived. That remained safe. Suddenly Shaikh too was affected by the decease and departed from this world. After his death, the place was so badly afflicted with the epidemic that it is not possible to put it in words. Everyone understood that the Shaikh was its saviour and protector because as soon as he went, the entire area was consumed by the flames of the epidemic.

Due to the extreme cold of the winter month, the sky is in great turmoil. Because of the thunder bolts and lightning the Sun has hidden behind the veil. The sky showered the earth with arrows (of water) and it started to tremble like the quick silver due to excess of rain and snow.
