He added nine hundred seven hymns of revelation, included in the Sri Guru Granth Sahib. Guru Amar Das is listed as Guru Amar das, was the third member of the Ten Gurus of Sikhism and became Sikh Guru on March twenty six, \[1552\]at the age of seventy three. his nephew's wife, Bibi Amro, was reading Guru Nanak's song, and he was deeply moved. Bibi Amro was the daughter of Guru Angad, the second and then Gugu of the Sikhs. Amar Das persuaded Bibi Amro to introduce her to her father and Amar Das, in his sixties, met Guru Angad and became a Sikh, devoting himself to Gugu. Being a reformer, he discouraged the veiling of women's faces as well as sati pratha. He stated that the dharma of Kshatriya people is to fight for the sake of justice.

Hence, the correct answer is option (B).

Note:Guru Amar Das married Mansa Devi and gave birth to four children whom they named Mohri, Mohan, Dani and Bhani.Guru Amar Das instead of choosing his own sons chose Bhai Jetha as his successor and renamed him as Ramdas or servant or slave of God. Guru Ramdas became Guru of Sikhism and served as a Sikh leader until his death.
