Pilgrimage (to Mecca) is an important part of Islam, while Sikhs make pilgrimage to Sri Harmandir Sahib in Amritsar. Kirat Karna (doing an honest livelihood - earning honestly without any sort of corruption) Naam Japna (to chant and meditate on Naam, read and follow "The One") and Vand Chhako (selfless service and sharing with others) are fundamental to Sikhism given by Guru Nanak Dev Ji. Islam requires annual zakah (alms giving) by Muslims. Baptized Sikhs read the five banis as part of their daily routine, Nitnem. Daily prayers are one of the pillars of Islam, and they are mandatory for all Muslims. In Islam, the legal system based on the Quran and the Sunnah is known as Sharia there is no such legal system mentioned in Guru Granth Sahib. Guru Granth Sahib is the scripture followed by Sikhs as "The Living Guru". Sikhism was founded in the 15th century CE by Guru Nanak. Islam believes that Muhammad was the last prophet, to whom the Quran was revealed by God in the 7th century CE. Muslims believe God exists without a place. Muslims believe God and his attributes are separate from creation and he is not like the creation in any way whatsoever. Sikhs believe that the 'creator and creation are one and the same thing', Muslims on the other hand, disagree. Islam is monotheistic, whereas Sikhism is pantheistic.
The word Sikh is derived from a Sanskrit word meaning 'disciple', or one who learns. Islam means 'peace' or 'submission to God'. Islam is an Abrahamic religion founded in the Arabian Peninsula, while Sikhism is a Dharmic religion founded in the Punjab region of the Indian subcontinent.
