BHAGO, MALIK, was, according to Sikh chroniclers, the Hindu steward of the Muslim chief of Saidpur, present day town of Eminabad, now in Gujranwala district of Pakistan, during the days of Guru Nanak. The tradition relates that once while Guru Nanak was staying with Bhai Lalo, a poor carpenter, in the town, Malik Bhago gave a feast to which Guru Nanak, along with other holy men and dignitaries, was invited. As the Guru declined the invitation, the Malik had him summoned to his presence and asked the reason for his refusal.
