<p class="C1">&#65279MAL&#298&#256, BH&#256&#298, along with Bh&#257&#299 Sah&#257r&#363, accepted the Sikh faith at the hands of Gur&#363 Amar D&#257s. Both were tailors by profession and belonged to the village of &#7693all&#257, in present-day Kap&#363rthal&#257 district of the Punjab. According  to Bh&#257&#299 M&#257n&#299 Si&#7749gh, <i>Sikh&#257&#7749 d&#299 Bhagat M&#257l&#257</i>, as Gur&#363 Amar D&#257s once arrived at &#7693all&#257 and the Sikhs came out in small groups to offer obeisance, he gave them advice appropriate to their calling. To Mal&#299&#257 and Sah&#257r&#363 he said, "Mend the torn garments of the Sikhs and wash them if they be soiled. By serving them thus, you will be cleansing them and earning the pleasure of the Gur&#363&#8221.</p>
