Question:

Who had said that Ram and Rahim are two different names of the same god?

Options:

Kabir

Nizamuddin Auliya

Shaikh Moinuddin Chisti

Amir Khusrau

Correct Answer:

Kabir

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option 1- Kabir

Kabir said that Ram and Rahim are two different names of the same God.

Kabir was a 15th-century Indian mystic poet and saint whose writings influenced Hinduism, Islam, and the Sikhism religions. He was born in a Muslim weaver family in Kashi, India, but he rejected both Islam and Hinduism, teaching that all religions are paths to the same God.

Kabir's poems are full of religious symbolism and imagery, and they often challenge traditional religious beliefs and practices. He taught that the only way to reach God is through love and devotion, and that all people are equal in the eyes of God.

One of Kabir's most famous poems is "Ek Onkar Sat Nam," which begins with the line "Ram and Rahim are one." This line is often interpreted to mean that Kabir believed that Ram and Rahim are two different names of the same God.

Kabir's teachings have had a profound influence on Indian culture and society. He is revered by Hindus, Muslims, and Sikhs alike, and his poems are still widely read and sung today.
