You speak of ignorance..and you do not know what a Sikh is..

Sikh’s.

The faith essentially ties together Bhakti Hinduism
and Islamic Sufism.

Sufism is Islamic mysticism.

Sufi Sikh’s practices:Prerequisites to practice
include rigorous adherence to Islamic norms (ritual
prayer in its five prescribed times each day, the fast
of Ramadan, and so forth).

They are also called Sufi Muslims.

But the media is reporting the citizens of the United
States ‘ confuse Sikh’s with being Muslim’...

in July 2006, specifically recognized the validity of
Sufism as a part of Islam.

Are Sikhs recognized by Sunnis or Shiites as muslims?
