The correct answer is option 3, Guru Gobind Singh. Guru Gobind Singh was the tenth and the last Guru of the Sikhs. He was born in 1666 and became the Guru in 1675 after the execution of his father, Guru Teg Bahadur, who was the ninth Sikh Guru. Guru Gobind Singh played a significant role in shaping the Sikh religion and community. He established the Khalsa, a collective body of initiated Sikhs, and introduced the concept of the Five Ks (Kesh, Kangha, Kara, Kachera, and Kirpan) which are the physical symbols of Sikh identity. He also compiled the holy scripture of the Sikhs, Guru Granth Sahib, and declared it the eternal Guru of the Sikhs. Guru Gobind Singh passed away in 1708, making him the last human Guru of the Sikhs.
