In a practical day-to-day sense you've just got to keep it cordial and responsible especially if you're in a professional environment. Inwardly, just remain alert. Don't sow unnecessary animosity. 

Exactly. In a workplace environment, just treat them just like every other co-worker. It's just that you don't have to have an outside-the-workplace friendship with them.

They're marrying to muslim families, convert,  and you are asking whether we can be friends with them ?

Look, bro, the point is if we tell Sikhs Muslims aren't your friends, then they won't even get to the point of marriage. The message is: treat them like anybody else in the workplace, but don't go out of your way to make friends with them. In other words, stay your distance.

If apne  spent time looking into Sikhi, our history, Guru's teachings, there'd be no need to tell Sikhs who our 'friends' are. Clearly if they ok to marry off muslim  shows that state we are in...since 1947 how many Sikhs were forced to convert...  Same with Hindus not our friends.. Sikhs have no friends, but we turned our self into pandering to Muslims for clout and assuming they'd support us in 'Khalistan' as if they are going to give Lahore back.. Neither India, Pakistan, or any other islamic country or gora are our friends...we are on our own and will always be..better we realize and start focusing on Sikhi and Guru's teaching and stop clouting and pandering around to other communities we might start getting somewhere. 

Well put.

Like in the Gurbani I posted above, recognize who Guru ji thinks you should have as your friends (Gurmukhs, Satguru, and God):

ਨਾਨਕ ਸਤਗੁਰੁ ਮੀਤੁ ਕਰਿ ਸਚੁ ਪਾਵਹਿ ਦਰਗਹ ਜਾਇ ॥੪॥੨੦॥

ਹਰਿ ਪ੍ਰਭੁ ਸਖਾ ਮੀਤੁ ਪ੍ਰਭੁ ਮੇਰਾ ਅੰਤੇ ਹੋਇ ਸਖਾਈ ॥੩॥

ਭਾਈ ਰੇ ਮੈ ਮੀਤੁ ਸਖਾ ਪ੍ਰਭੁ ਸੋਇ ॥

O Brother, my friend is only God.

One shouldn't have hate for any one because of their religion. On the individual level it's not wise to say someone is bad because he is a Muslim. I've personally known many Muslims who have been very nice people.

Having said that, one should also not be an SJW. That's the mindset we need to avoid having. SJW types are increasing among Sikhs. They don't want to listen to the truth.

It's not about hating. Because hate (krodh) is one of the five vices to avoid. It's about making a simple decision to avoid unnecessary contact with people of a faith who are essentially not good human beings and wish harm on non Muslims aswell as with many other negative traits that their religion preaches. 

Now I don't buy the whole. 

' I know some good Muslims'. Well there maybe some liberal and open minded ones. I knew a couple also that left Islam. These type are definantly the good ones. 

Just came across this video btw. Not sure if anyone has tiktok on their phone. But this pretty much sums up the strange mindset of some Sikhs.

I’ve never had a problem with Turkish or Cypriot Turks in the UK

    • yeh it's true, we shouldn't be lazy and need to learn jhatka shikaar. It doesn't help some of grew up in surrounding areas like Slough and Southall where everyone thought it was super bad for amrit dharis to eat meat, and they were following Sant babas and jathas, and instead the Singhs should have been normalising jhatka just like the recent world war soldiers did. We are trying to rectifiy this and khalsa should learn jhatka.  But I am just writing about bhog for those that are still learning rehit. As I explained, there are all these negative influences in the panth that talk against rehit, but this shouldn't deter us from taking khanda pahul, no matter what level of rehit we are!
    • How is it going to help? The link is of a Sikh hunter. Fine, but what good does that do the lazy Sikh who ate khulla maas in a restaurant? By the way, for the OP, yes, it's against rehit to eat khulla maas.
    • Yeah, Sikhs should do bhog of food they eat. But the point of bhog is to only do bhog of food which is fit to be presented to Maharaj. It's not maryada to do bhog of khulla maas and pretend it's OK to eat. It's not. Come on, bro, you should know better than to bring this Sakhi into it. Is this Sikh in the restaurant accompanied by Guru Gobind Singh ji? Is he fighting a dharam yudh? Or is he merely filling his belly with the nearest restaurant?  Please don't make a mockery of our puratan Singhs' sacrifices by comparing them to lazy Sikhs who eat khulla maas.
    • Seriously?? The Dhadi is trying to be cute. For those who didn't get it, he said: "Some say Maharaj killed bakras (goats). Some say he cut the heads of the Panj Piyaras. The truth is that they weren't goats. It was she-goats (ਬਕਰੀਆਂ). He jhatka'd she-goats. Not he-goats." Wow. This is possibly the stupidest thing I've ever heard in relation to Sikhi.
    • Instead of a 9 inch or larger kirpan, take a smaller kirpan and put it (without gatra) inside your smaller turban and tie the turban tightly. This keeps a kirpan on your person without interfering with the massage or alarming the masseuse. I'm not talking about a trinket but rather an actual small kirpan that fits in a sheath (you'll have to search to find one). As for ahem, "problems", you could get a male masseuse. I don't know where you are, but in most places there are professional masseuses who actually know what they are doing and can really relieve your muscle pains.
