Gurdwara Sri Jhari Sahib stands in the decrepit condition in fields outside the Tergay village and is located 1.8 km from the Indian border.


Village Tergay is situated on Kasur-Qadiwind road about one km northeast of village Qadiwind.


While Sri Guru Amar Das Ji was traveling to Kasur, the residents of this village welcomed him with love and urged him to stay.


Guru Amar Das conceded and stayed here. A small Gurdwara was built in his memory. There used to be a bunch of trees nearby. Guru Amar Das had tied his horse to the trees which have withered away.

There is a grant of 2.5 ghumaon of land by Bhai Sulakhan Singh of Qadiwind and 2.5 ghumaon by villagers for the Gurdwara. A fair was held on Vaisakhi before Indo-Pak Partition. 

















It is also important to mention this Gurdwara is located near an ancient pre-historic mound.
