Mughals were misguided people.
They thought people of all religions other than Islam were kafir. So either kill them or convert them. 
They misread Qur'an.
They were just old day terrorists.

Why special hostility towards Sikhs? Well, because we didn't used to take sh#t from anybody. Sikhs stood firm on their believes. So firm that even after bearing the-wildest-a-demonic-mind-can-imagine kind of atrocities they did not relent. 

In those hostile & injust times Sikhs kept there fortitude and passed it on to generations through Gurbani and other verbal couplets that have now become part of the folklore.
What were reasons for the Mughal Empire's policy of suppression being specifically intolerant towards the Sikhs?

Sir Jaave tan jaave mera sikhi sidak na jaave. 
Which means that I don't care if I have to give up my life, I won't digress from the path of Sikhism.


And during the time of Mir Mannu, probably the most tyrant Mughal ruler of the 18th century, Sikhs turned there anguish into strength through these popular lines.
