As this verse demands of the believers, they must strictly abide by
Allah’s verses and they cannot compromise on justice under any cir-
cumstances. It is evident that preferential and discriminatory treatment

purely based on blood bonds or friendship will create discontent and
friction in society. A Muslim acting on the principles of the Qur’an will
comply with Allah’s commandments, as in the following verse:
… That you are equitable when you speak – even if a near relative is
concerned; and that you fulfill Allah’s contract. That is what He in-
structs you to do, so that hopefully you will pay heed. (Surat al-
An‘am: 152)

Abiding by these instructions is evidence for a Muslim’s strong
faith in Allah and his good character.
This is the social model prescribed by the morality of the Qur’an.
Hinduism on the other hand is not based on Allah’s revelation.
Consequently, it has produced a vicious, oppressive, loveless and racist
system.

THE FALSE HINDU RELIGION AND SIKHISM

The caste system in the superstitious Hindu religion has been the
source of terrible oppression of the great majority of that faith’s mem-
bers throughout the course of its history. For that reason the morality of
Islam with its affection, justice, and social solidarity has been the hope of
many Hindus. As we have already mentioned, since the arrival of Islam
in India, a considerable number of Hindus have become Muslims.
However, certain sections of society have found it difficult to escape the
Hindu traditions they have lived with for so long.
These people neither walked away from Hinduism completely nor
did they enter Islam, but instead tried to create a new religion, in their
own eyes, by mixing the two. One such attempt produced Sikhism,
which was founded by Sri Guru Nanak Dev Ji (1469-1539).
