Was asked to share this about Muslim-Sikh shared heritage. It is claimed that Gurdwara Keshgarh Sahab in India, which is considered a repository of Sikh heritage, contains a double-edged sword. Some people claim that the sword is the 'Zulfiqar' which was the sword of Imam Ali
It is claimed that the sword was given to Guru Gobind Singh by the Mughal Emperor Bahadur Shah. Not going into the authenticity of the claim but it definitely depicts the historical bond which the two communities have enjoyed in this part of the region
As Kunwar Mahendra Singh Bedi famously said:
Hum kisi deen se hoon qail-e-kirdaar tou hain
Hum sana'khwan-e-Shah-e-Haider-e-Karrar tou hain~
Hum kisi deen se hoon qail-e-kirdaar tou hain
Hum sana'khwan-e-Shah-e-Haider-e-Karrar tou hain~
He further went on to say that wrestlers still chant the names of the Muhammad and Ali when they go for their bouts. The interaction between these two communities in nothing new, as they have many mutual heroes and symbols. May it continue to flourish
