Basics Of Sikhi Vs Dawah Man

[username1]

We welcome them all with open arms to come into gurus house. And we welcome them with the invite (dawah) to embrace sikhi.

what i learnt from an Interaction with Jugraj Singh is whatever you put into your life will flow out.

A dude of that calibre who accepts others for who they are is what you need in GurGhars. Inspiration to Youth to start with.

I once went to my local Asda and i met my old school fellow who is a muslim and a friend now still after 20 years. He is an advanced Muslim has a lot of knowledge about his religion.

We shook hands and started talking about religion- he said "we beleive Guru Nanak was a Muslim". In reply i said well that implies that the Prophet Mohammed was a Sikh and then i told him how Guru Jee clearly Na Ko Muslim Na Ko Hindu I shall follow the path of God. Then he said to me how is it you beleive God is everwhere in reply i said " God's Noor is in his jahan" meaning Gods light is manifested in the world. He got a shock when he heard me say this with Arabic words. Then i told him how great sufi Fakirs such as Mansoor saw God's light (divinity) everywhere and how he told of his previous lives. He was shocked and had no answer. Theres is no doubt that Prophet Mohammed was a great soul. If you listen to Maskeen Ji's katha he talks about how Prophet Mohammed would enter into samadhi and say to his wife that God was speaking to him.

However he has several criticisms aswell and so does the Quran Sharif. But there are NO criticism of any of the Guru's lifes.

This challenge about the 40 rhetorics can easily be answered by Gurbani and my benti to all the scholars is to find out because Gurbani contains many rhetioric verses. In islam they say God has 99 names and in Jaap Guru Sahib on purpose made 199 names.

The main problem with Islam is the emphasis on sharas (code of conduct) and lack of spirituality. Other criticisms are no beleif in Karma, reincarnation and heaven rather than merger with God, and Jihad. How can you justify ramming a vehicle into the unarmed Drummer Lee Rigby from behind and say that you will go to paradise for this. Thats not bravery it cowardice

Please could the sangat highlight more criticisms of Islam. Please note that we have nothing against Islam i just would like to see a comparison between the two religions. Any links to previous threads would be appreciated.

Criticism of Prophet Mohammed is when he was circumcised

I think we should all have more knowledge about islam and sikhism so that we can stand up and justify our own religion

[singh598]

Islam the fastest growing religion? The greatest threat to Islam is capitalism and the west

[Shaastar]

paaj i appreciate hearing about the exchange.

I would think any nam rassiyah person who stands with a muslim would be sooo strong spiritually that the muslmaan will be trying to fathom out of his depth. The rehat of a practicing sikh would be flowing through and affect the other person because their now dealing in the Naam of Waheguru Essence Source of Light. Nobody can withstand that..

We are going in the right direction now with some great parchar

Giani Hari Singh Randava did a rare katha on SC where he talked about a muslim book which contains the talks between Guru Nanak Dev Jee and one of the great Muslim fakirs in either Baghdad or Mecca. I think it was Peer Dastageer. He says that this peer actually converted to Sikhism afetr the gosti and then Guru Ji gave him the highest spiritual state and accepted Guru Nanak as his Pegambar. This Peer was given a fatwa whereby he was dug up in a sand pit and had stones thrown at him till death.

If you listen to one of the kathas on Gurmatveechar by Sant Kartar Singh Damdami Taksaalvale he says there is a muslim book that talks about Guru Nanak Dev Jee and that all Muslims must follow him. I think even the Prophet Mohammed talked about Guru Jee aswell and told his followers to listen to him.

Please share more sakhis such as those of great Muslim fakirs who were given Fatwas by Muslim clergy for going against the teachings of Islam and following the teachings a spoken by Guru Nanak Dev
