[QUOTE="Archived_Member1, post: 70455, member: 4703"] i have. i've also read a lot of articles by muslim scholars. and i agree with Randip that certain militant sects, like the wahabis, are completely misinterpreting and making a bad name for the faith. remember that i'm a convert to sikhism. i didn't just draw a religion out of a hat... i researched everything i could get my hands on. i researched christianity, judiasm, islam, buddhism, hinduism... and one thing i found is that at the core, all religions are good. it's the people and the cultures that make them go wrong. so in that vein, i certainly hope you're not taking th is shabad to mean that ALL muslims have "utterly failed", when obviously kabir ji would be speaking of the mughal invadors, who by any standards, were a horrible example of islam... :) here's something else Guru ji says about islam: ਸਲੋਕੁ ਮਃ ੧ ॥ Salok mehlā 1. Shalok, First Mehl: ਮੁਸਲਮਾਣੁ ਕਹਾਵਣੁ ਮੁਸਕਲੁ ਜਾ ਹੋਇ ਤਾ ਮੁਸਲਮਾਣੁ ਕਹਾਵੈ ॥ Musalmāṇ kahāvaṇ muskal jā ho*ė ṯā musalmāṇ kahāvai. It is difficult to be called a Muslim; if one is truly a Muslim, then he may be called one. ਅਵਲਿ ਅਉਲਿ ਦੀਨੁ ਕਰਿ ਮਿਠਾ ਮਸਕਲ ਮਾਨਾ ਮਾਲੁ ਮੁਸਾਵੈ ॥ Aval a*ul ḏīn kar miṯẖā maskal mānā māl musāvai. First, let him savor the religion of the Prophet as sweet; then, let his pride of his possessions be scraped away. ਹੋਇ ਮੁਸਲਿਮੁ ਦੀਨ ਮੁਹਾਣੈ ਮਰਣ ਜੀਵਣ ਕਾ ਭਰਮੁ ਚੁਕਾਵੈ ॥ Ho*ė muslim ḏīn muhāṇai maraṇ jīvaṇ kā bẖaram cẖukẖāvai. Becoming a true Muslim, a disciple of the faith of Mohammed, let him put aside the delusion of death and life. ਰਬ ਕੀ ਰਜਾਇ ਮੰਨੇ ਸਿਰ ਉਪਰਿ ਕਰਤਾ ਮੰਨੇ ਆਪੁ ਗਵਾਵੈ ॥ Rab kī rajā*ė mannė sir upar karṯā mannė āp gavāvai. As he submits to God's Will, and surrenders to the Creator, he is rid of selfishness and conceit. ਤਉ ਨਾਨਕ ਸਰਬ ਜੀਆ ਮਿਹਰੰਮਤਿ ਹੋਇ ਤ ਮੁਸਲਮਾਣੁ ਕਹਾਵੈ ॥੧॥ Ŧa*o Nānak sarab jī*ā mihramaṯ ho*ė ṯa musalmāṇ kahāvai. ||1|| And when, O Nanak, he is merciful to all beings, only then shall he be called a Muslim. ||1|| SSGS p. 141 why sould guru ji speak so highly of a faith if it were not deserving of respect? sikhism owes much to the sufis of the time... Farid ji being a most obvious example... [/QUOTE]
