There was a muslim dairy farmer nearby who was tending to his herd. Guru Gobind Singh asked if there was a person nearby that could help with first aid. The muslim said that wasn't anyone nearby that could help but he would try if Guru Sahib did not mind. Guru Gobind Singh said that he viewed people of every religion equally, it was a persons deeds that he looked at. The muslim blew hot moist air onto the bandage and opened it carefully. Guru Gobind Singh was pleased and commanded the muslim not to smoke tobacco or any other substances. Guru Gobind Singh said if the muslim followed his advice his family would prosper. At first the muslims family prospered. However, after sometime the family fell back into their old ways and died out.
