Sikhism was born in the بنجاب area of جنوب آسيا, which now falls into the present day states of الهند and باكستان. The main religions of the area at the time were Hinduism and Islam. The Sikh faith began around 1500 CE, when Guru Nanak began teaching a faith that was quite distinct from Hinduism and Islam. الغورو السيخ followed Nanak and developed the Sikh faith and community over the next centuries.

Sikhs claim that their tradition has always been separate from Hinduism. Nevertheless, many علم الهنديات argue that in its earliest stage Sikhism was a movement within the Hindu tradition; Nanak, they point out, was raised a Hindu and eventually belonged to the Sant tradition of شمال الهند, a movement associated with the great شاعر and روحانية كابير (1440–1518). The Sants, most of whom were poor, dispossessed, and illiterate, composed hymns of great beauty expressing their experience of the divine, which they saw in all things. Their tradition drew heavily on the فيشنوية الحركة البهاكتية (the devotional movement within the Hindu tradition that worships the god فيشنو), though there were important differences between the two. Like the followers of bhakti, the Sants believed that devotion to God is essential to liberation from the تناسخ الأرواح in which all human beings are trapped; unlike the followers of bhakti, however, the Sants maintained that God is nirgun ("without form") and not sagun ("with form"). For the Sants, God can be neither incarnated nor represented in concrete terms.
