With the conclusion of evening program at 11:30 PM, Baba Nand Singh Ji Maharaj went to bhora, and also instructed kirtani jatha to rest until the next Amritvela program. As every body in the jatha was asleep, Baba Ji’s sevadar abruptly woke the kirtani jatha members, and told them to come back quickly as Baba Ji wants them to do kirtan.

Everyone puzzled and still sleepy, came back. They requested Baba Ji that it is early than the scheduled time, and also they have not taken bath. Usually jatha members are required to take bath before they start program. Baba Ji said do not worry just undertake five ablutions, and start Dhan Guru Nanak Tuhi Nirankar. The Jatha read the dhaarna from 1:00 to 2.30 AM. Then Baba Ji told them to go back. Jatha members could not comprehend the exact reason for this abrupt kirtan but had a sense that something must have happened. No body asked anything about the mystery.

Next day in the diwan, the question relating to the last night occurrence came up. Baba Ji smiled and said that last night Hazrat Mohammed came with his quawali jatha, first they did the kirtan. Then Hazrat Mohammed highly praised the Dhan Guru Nanak Nirankar dhaarna, and liked to have his kirtani jatha to do the same, and hence unfolded the mystery.

The purpose of the sakhi was to show that all Prophets including Mohammed himself, were models of harmony of all Faiths and Paths, and preached the unity of Godhood and of human family with a integrative approach. Therefore. Hazrat Ji's advent at Nanaksar was natural as Baba Nand Singh Ji Maharaj blessed All, Sikhs, Hindus, Muslims, Christians and others.

Whether music is banned in Islam is quite controversial and seems to be a recent hardline approach.

The golden era of Indian Classical music emerged in the royal courts of the ruling Muslim leaders who would have a Qazi/Mullah their as a religious advisors. If it was wrong it wouldn't have flourished.

They also have the Qawalli genre which has still survived till today and a lot of historically eminent Muslims were great poets and scholars. Islam has always promoted the arts.

I have heard that there is a lot of false stories written about the great Baba Nand Singh of Kaleran in the publication Anand Chamatkar which is the main source of his life story.

There are aayats which ban music ..its in the Quran ..not said by any mollah or king ..Kings were kings ..they could bend and stretch religion. I dont know what One - ness is being proved here. In my dream i can see Jesus and Mohamad dressed as Nihangs who cares ?

Wow!! This is a superably enchanting sakhi about Prophet Mohammed (PBUH) !

It is true, once we have reached a very high state of spirituality the human soul stops discriminating! In other words this is a state of Brahmgiyaan. Sab Gobind hey! As one's soul progresses to higher realms of the spiritual world it cannot fail to hear the sounds of the spheres in those realms also known as 'musica universalis.'
