Adi Granth, (Punjabi: "First Book") additionally called Granth or Granth Sahib, the consecrated sacred text of Sikhism, a religion of India.

Which Sufi poet’s works reflected in Adi Granth?
The Adi Granth is the focal question of love in all gurdwaras (Sikh sanctuaries) and is agreed the adoration paid a living Guru. It is customarily opened toward the beginning of the day and wrapped up and set away for the night. On extraordinary events constant readings of it are held, which last from 2 to 15 days. On the birthday celebrations of the Gurus or commemorations remembering Sikh saints, the Granth is some of the time taken out in parade.

The primary adaptation of the book was arranged by the fifth Sikh Guru, Arjun, at Amritsar in 1604 ce.In 1704 ce the tenth and last Guru, Gobind Singh, included the songs of his antecedent, Guru Tegh Bahadur (the sixth, seventh, and eighth Gurus did not compose psalms), and charged that after his own demise the Granth would replace the Guru.

The book opens with the Mul Mantra ("Basic Prayer"), which is an announcement of the idea of God as Truth, trailed by the Japji ("Recital"), the most essential Sikh sacred writing, composed by the author of the Sikh religion, Guru Nanak. The songs are masterminded by the melodic modes (ragas) in which they are to be sung. The dialect is for the most part Punjabi or Hindi, sprinkled with Marathi, Persian, and Arabic words.
