This is a list of battles and campaigns between Mughal and Sikh armies, which started with the martyrdom of the fifth Sikh guru, Guru Arjan Dev, on the orders of Jahangir. Guru Hargobind, the sixth Sikh guru, introduced the militarization to Sikhism. In response to his father's execution, he fought several battles against the Mughal army and defeated them. Later, another Sikh guru, Guru Tegh Bahadur, was also executed on the orders of Aurangzeb after he refused to convert to Islam. Guru Gobind Singh, the last Sikh guru, started the Khalsa tradition and fought further battles against the Mughals and their allies.
