some people by nature are passive. they are not born leaders. they always follow. majority pakistanis ancestors were like that. atrocities were commited on my people too. muslims tried all they could to convert sikhs. they cut into peices little kids. they tried to lure sikhs by women and money. but we are of differnt type. die hards. no my ancestors didnt see any light in islam. and i thank my ancestors gazillion times for being strong. otherwise we been wearing long gowns and worshiping in arabic. look at the state of enlightened people of pakistani punjab. they are poor and considered weak and have no pride in their own culture and anything. and compare it to sikhs.
by the way this is what bullay shah a much revered muslim poet said
" naah kahu ab kee, naah kahu tabb kee, agar nah hotay guru gobind singh, sunnat hoti sabki."
for non punjabi speakers it means if there were no guru gobind singh whole of india would been muslims. sikh stood like rocks in the way of flotilla of islam and sank it . the same flotilla of islam that cant be stoped in iran, irak , afghanistan and many arabic nations
