I have a friend who is a Sikh. He told me that when Gurunanak went to Kaba, wherever he used to face his feet to sleep, Kaba would move to that side. Is this true?

Answer

In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful

Assalaamu `alaykum waRahmatullahi Wabarakatuh

Even though this incident is mentioned in the Sikh books, it is not considered as a proof. Their books are not proof for us and nor is it accepted for historical aspects. One should not believe in the incident.

And Allah knows best
