Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Where did Hindus and Muslims — and everyone else — really come from? Who set us on all these different paths?
Think about it deeply: we all come from the same One. So the label isn't what decides who's close to God.
Kabir asks one of the boldest questions in all of scripture: where have the Hindus and Muslims come from? Who put them on their different paths? Born a Muslim, living among Hindus, he looks at the walls people build between religions and asks — where did these divisions even come from? We all trace back to the same One. His point is not that religions don't matter, but that the label on a person — Hindu, Muslim, any faith — is not what places them closer to or farther from God. The dividing lines people fight over are far shallower than the one Source everyone shares. For children growing up among many faiths, this is a foundational gift: everyone comes from the same One.
If people of all religions come from the same One, how should they treat each other?
