Sat Siri Akaal. As I understand it, some interpretations of Islam maintain that it is the one true faith, and thus if you are not Muslim, you are not as good/will not be saved/whatever. This is not unlike evangelical Christianity. In addition, apparently a Muslim man is not allowed to marry a non-Muslim woman, so if he falls romantically for a non-Muslim, he is duty bound to try to convert her. I recommend you ask a Muslim cleric if you want it straight from a Muslim. I am not an expert on Islam.

Sikhs do NOT believe in trying to convert anyone. We believe firmly that everyone has a right to worship as they choose, period. Our 9th Guru died for this very purpose. Never forget it.
