During Afternoon, Guru ji was sitting with sangat at this place and at sudden a person came out of tree. The Sangat was stunned but he was looking dashing. That person greeted Guru Sahib to which guru sahib replied "How are you Mian Hussain Khan?". When that person listened his name from pious mouth of Sri Guru Ji, he was delighted and replied that glimpse of guru ji made him very happy and was waiting for him for long time and now he was relaxed as his all sins destroyed. Mian Ussain Khan attained salvation and his soul left the place.

Then Sikhs enquired about him to which Guru Sahib replied that he was a martyr but due to some reasons he was not able to attain salvation, But today he acheived it.
