In Sikhi cruelty is not permitted; cruelty is an aspect of human understanding that has been addressed very clearly by the Sikh Gurus. "Cruelty, material attachment, greed and anger are the four rivers of fire. Falling into them, one is burnt, O Nanak!" (SGGS p 147).
So anyone who wants to follow the Sikh way must discard cruelty, material attachment, greed and anger otherwise they will be burnt! What is the point of living a life where in the end you are burnt.
So don't be a Manmukh (ego-centric, self willed person) but follow the Guru's instruction and become Gurmukh; follow the well thought out instructions of the wise Guru! The Guru tells us, "The hearts of the self-willed manmukhs are hard and cruel; their inner beings are dark. Even if the poisonous snake is fed large amounts of milk, it will still yield only poison." (SGGS p 171)
Remove that "hardness" and "darkness" in your heart and become pure and pristine; .....More
