    Guru Granth sahib also tells about Ram as God Shiva the another name of God,Guru Granth sahib also believe in re in carnation , Gurur granth sahib also belive in God is Omnipresent and inside every living being.

    Guru Granth sahib also believes that all religion are correct as they are made by the Hukum of God alone.Sikhism ,like all other India born religion, do not criticize other religion like Islam and Christianity do.

    So Sikhism while do have some influence of Sufi tradition of Islam and belief in monotheism or in One God but it is many way apart from Salafi or Wahabi version of Islam.

    Read Guru Granth sahib , it praises Namdev Bhakta at many places , the same namdev who look for God even in a Dog and all other creations.

    So now think again before asking this question next time.

    First of all those people are retards who say that Sikh's fought with Muslims 500,600 years ago

    Sikhism didn't fought with any religious people

    Noo they didn't fought with any particular religion there fight was with only Injustice and Cruelty of Mughals who were suc.king the blood of innocent Sikhs,Hindus and even Muslims.

    Shri Guru Tegh bahadur Ji sacrificed for humanity and truth he is known as "Hind Di Chadar" if it were Muslims fighting for right cause he would have done the same for sure.Sikhism is not against any Religion.In fact it is much of peaceful and tolerable religion that believes in principle of"Jaise Ko taisa" “Whatever good or bad you do, so you reap the (self inflicted) reward or punishment.” (SGGS pg 470).

    Similarly there were many Pahari raja's who were hindus by religion

    Lakhpat rai a hindu khatri by birth who united with Mughals and killed 2,000 Sikhs

    and then Sikhs took revenge by killing

    Chandu Shah a hindu who was resp for martyrdom of fifth Guru Guru Arjan Dev Ji.

    Sikhs always Fight for Right and Justice

    They never fight against any religion

    and your question is useless

    Guru granth sahib also mentions Ram,Shiva,Har

    that doesn't make us (Hindus).

    Sikhism believes that god is not in any Human form.

    Sikhism rejects Brahmanism as our guru's opposed threads some orthodox Sikhs even don't celebrate Raksha Bandhan and Holi although majority of sikhs don't celebrate Karva chauth as well as our guru's opposed this idea by saying "The mind is not softened by fast our austerities"

    and "Chorrhe aan kare Pakhand naa suhagan naa o rand"

    but in UK and some parts of India Sikhs celebrate Holi,Raksha bandhan

    Sikhism rejects Islamic ways as well like Veil Wearing,Halaal meat,Circumcision.

    In Guru granth sahib it is only said'

    Avar Allah Noor Upaya Kudrat Ke sab bande

    "Which means that from that god we all are created nobody is above or beneath anyone"

    Sikhism doesn't worship Hindu deities as well.

    they only worship Onmi Present Guru granth sahib and 10 Guru's in Sikhism.

    But we do respect other Religions and are tolerant towards other faith's

    The very religions was of valiant Hindus and created to oppose Islam..If somebody says "Don't believe in to worship Allah , it does not mean that he loves Allah" as he has mentioned the word "Allah" .In Islam it might be blasphemy .

    May be in Hinduism if somebody says Do not worship Rama " he would be blessed ,as according to Hinduism the very mention of the name of God invokes the blessings of God ,irrespective of the context in which the name is mentioned . "

    I'm a Sikh. We believe in One God, Ek Onkar. God, Waheguru, Allah, Elohim, etc, are the same. So, in answer to your question, Sikh's do believe in Allah just as much as you believe in him.

    To respond to Variable's answer: that is wrong. Where on Earth did you here that from? The founder of Sikhism was accompanied by Bhai Mardana, a Muslim, when he travelled around the world.

    One should always have faith on that person only; who not only shows the path to allah; or god; or the lord; but who also helps the self to know and learn about and to take refuge in allah; or god; or the lord;; because he only and none other has the power of the name of lord; as the boat; for heling the self to reach allah; or god; or the lord;

    there are many who believe this way but there are also many who think that the person Guru Nanak and subsequent 9 Gurus and the holy book are their Gods.

    Jesus is mentioned in the Quran, so I guess Muslims believe Jesus is God too. That's the quirky logic you're trying to apply.

    You do know that up until the last century it was the duty of every Sikh to kill at least one Muslim during their lifetime, don't you?

    I see quite a lot of people make naked idols of Jesus and his mother and bow to them.

    What for?
