Why do such hostilities exist between sikh's and musalmaan? is it true that musalmaan leaders have repeatedly murdered sikh saints nad that they were also responsible for the death of our beloved Guru Gobind Singh Ji, if so how many other sikhs are known to have died at the hands of musalmaan and why might they feel that they should be able to kill innocent Sikhs?

Greetings to you in the Name of God the light o every soul and in the Name of Guru the life of every Sikh.

I do not think that there are great hostilities between Muslims and Sikhs. We do not discriminate against people because of their religion.

Remember when Guru Arjan Dev was being burned on the hot plate and hot sand was being poured on hi? The great Muslim(Sufi) saint came to him and said, "Guru Arjan Dev ji, why are you letting this happen? Let me speak to the Govenore and I will stop this torture." Guru Arjan Dev answered "look and see who is stoking the fire and who is poring the hot sand on me". Mian Mir looked and saw, the image of Guru Arjan Dev himself putting wood on the fire and Guru Arjan Dev himself pouring the hot sand on his back. Guru Arjan Dev showed him that all was his will and the will of God.

Better not to live in anger and revenge for the past is gone. Better to find the grace of God within you and see God within ALL those around you.

Read and understand the meaning of Jap Ji Sahib....study and read it aloud every day for the next 90 days. You will find the translation at: http://www.sikhnet.com/s/gurugranthsahib under english translation.

God bless you.
