Congregational singing of 'Shabad' is a practice associated with Guru Purab, which commemorates the birth anniversary or other significant events related to the Sikh Gurus.

This collective singing, known as "Kirtan," is an integral part of Sikh worship and serves to foster spiritual unity and devotion among the Sikh community.
