MĀN CHAND, son of Khān Chand, resident of Kābul in Afghanistan, became a devotee of Gurū Nānak. According to Bālā Janam Sākhī, once Gurū Nānak accompanied by Bhāī Bālā went to Kābul especially to meet Mān Chand whom he sent for through a local Paṭhān. Mān Chand, who had not heard about the Gurū before, however, received instruction and not only became a follower himself, but also began to preach the Gurū's teaching in the region.
