Mātā Sundarī (Gurmukhī alphabet: ਮਾਤਾ ਸੁੰਦਰੀ, Shahmukhī alphabet: ماتا سندری) was the daughter of Ram Sarana, a Kumarav Khatri of Bijwara, in present-day Hoshiārpur district. She was the second wife of Guru Gobind Singh.[2] The couple married at Anandpur on 4 April 1684 and had one son, Sahibzada Jujhar Singh, Baba Zorawar Singh Ji, Baba Fateh Singh Ji, born at Pāoṇṭā on 26 January 1687.[1]

She holds a special place in Sikhism for the role she played in leading Sikhs after the ascension of Guru Gobind Singh.
